Please install x11-repo and try again.

apt update && apt upgrade && apt install x11-repo && apt install xdotool

AntonSamokat commented 7 months ago

@licy183 Thanks, with

pkg install x11-repo
pkg install install xdotool

I have successfully installed xdotool

AntonSamokat commented 7 months ago

As I see this xdotool tool is not supposed to be used for emulating keystrokes on Android OS outside Termux environment. I want to have bash script that is able to pause and resume media playback. On Ubuntu the following command is working:

xdotool key --clearmodifiers XF86AudioPlay

But in Termux with this command I get:

Error: DISPLAY environment variable is empty. Is there an Xorg or other X server running? You can try setting 'export DISPLAY=:0' and trying again.
Failed creating new xdo instance.

This is because xdotool will be working only in X environment that Android device does not have: Graphical Environment - Termux Wiki

Am I right that now it is not possible by Termux to simulate keystrokes in OS Android?

I have found corresponding Feature Request for Termux: Feature request: media playback control #413

ewt45 commented 7 months ago

probably you can use ADB to send keyevents. It needs to be manually connected every time device boots though. adb shell input keyevent KEYCODE KEYCODE can be found at https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent ADB can be installed through android-tools

AntonSamokat commented 7 months ago

@ewt45 Thanks, this is working approach. With rooted devices ADB can be configured even without need for manually connecting by USB to PC after each device boot.

I'll leave some references on that:

AntonSamokat commented 7 months ago

Nevertheless this possibility to send keystrokes by ADB does not cover Feature request: media playback control #413 since commands execution over TCP/IP is taking significantly more time than if this would be inside application by native API.

twaik commented 7 months ago

Writing this

native API

is not possible. There are a few reasons.

  1. Sending keystrokes is only possible using some Java code. And yeah, input keyevent is implemented in Java.
  2. Sending keystrokes without java or adb rights is possible only using Accessibility Service. And I am pretty sure it will not be implemented in termux-app or termux-api for security reasons. That will be goddamn security breach because there are LOTS of users who simply copies scripts from Internet because "interistin wat it do".
  3. Another way is only sending the proposed above adb+tcp way. It can be optimized A BIT by using Shizuku or something simillar. But anyway you can not get rid of possible overhead.
