Clickr 1.1.0

I've been sitting on most of these changes for a crazy long time, its about time I published them as an actual release.

It was also definitely time to move this project to a stable version of electron/forge, since it was originally created with one of the late beta versions. In the process I also upgraded to Electron v24, which while probably unnecessary felt like the right thing to do considering its what electron/forge@6.1.1 bundles anyways.

What's Changed

• Moved any toggles/switches to their own 'preferences' window (now the main window can be much smaller)
• Added the ability to enable the bongo noise when the clicker starts/stops, not just when it starts.
• Added the ability to trigger system notifications on clicker start/stop if you aren't a fan of the bongo
• Actual validation for click speed & shortcut inputs
• Updated any important dependencies (electron, forge, nut-js, etc)

Full Changelog: v1.0.0...v1.1.0

Installing

Windows:

• If you have Clickr v0.x (any version pre 1.0) installed, remove that via windows control panel first!
  • It will upgrade Clickr v1.0 installations just fine, no need to uninstall
• Download the .exe installer
• Then just run it!

Linux: (requires graphical interface obviously)

• Download the .deb binary
• Run sudo dpkg -i clickr_1.1.0_amd64.deb

Clickr 1.0.0

First Major Release!

The project underwent a complete rewrite over the last few weeks, mainly to clean the code up. The v0.1.x branch code is extremely hard to follow, and especially hard to maintain. This rewrite gave me a chance to at least fix those issues, which I think I have done.

Whats changed?

• Completely redesigned the UI & added a Dark/Light toggle
• Removed useless features (stop after x clicks, multiple toggle shortcuts
• Now attempting to follow proper electron security procedures, even though we aren't loading remote content.

Still no builds for OSX, sorry 😢

Fair Warning:

While the installers may only be ~80MB, the total size of the installed application exceeds 200MB+ due to electron packaging NodeJS & CEF.**
(I'm gonna work towards making the final size smaller, but that'll take a lot of time to fiddle around)

If your interested in seeing the development of the rewrite:: v0.1.6...v1.0.0

If you have the old version (v0.1.x) installed, please uninstall it to avoid shortcut conflicts.

Clickr 0.1.6

This update isn't a huge one, It's mostly just cleaning up unnecessary stuff. But here is a short little list of the things that have been added/changed/fixed:

• New 'Cursor Lock' feature that allows you to lock the auto clicker wherever it is started
• Hotkeys are now stored in electron accelerator format
• Made the bongo a bit less ear piercing
• Fixed a couple random UI bugs
• Fixed a security vulnerability by bumping jquery from 3.4.1 to 3.5.0

Warning: The windows install is still 170MB+

The Linux AppImage has still only been tested on a Ubuntu 18.04 Desktop VM, if you encounter any problems opening/using the application on any other distributions please create an issue.

Clickr 0.1.5-beta

This build is a beta release, it is not guaranteed to be stable! (Especially on Linux)

This release contains mostly a not so great refactor, and a couple features. Which includes a preferences window (accessible via the title bar of the main window) which adds the ability to modify the delay between raw mouse events, and a little toggle switch to enable an alert sound (Bongos!) when the clicker starts.

Warning: The windows install is still 170MB+

This will be the first release to include an .AppImage file which can hopefully be run on multiple Linux distributions. I've only tested the image on an Ubuntu 18.04 Desktop VM. So other distributions might not work correctly, if you encounter any bugs/problems opening the application please create an issue.

Clickr 0.1.4

This release adds a 'stop after' feature which allows you to set a certain amount of clicks for the clicker to stop itself at. Simply just switch it on and input a value above 0, then next time you run your clicker it will only click that amount of times.

Still no builds for OSX/Linux, haven't messed around with it...

Be warned, the full install is 170MB+ (due to electron/chromium)

(Yes the size is absurd for an auto-clicker, read the README to understand why this clicker exists in the first place.)

Clickr 0.1.3

This release is the first build that I'm comfortable using in any situation, it seems to be pretty damn reliable.

I will not be releasing builds for OSX/Linux! (I am not familiar enough with building applications to do so)

Be warned, this install is 170MB+ (due to electron/chromium)

(Yes the size is ridiculous for an application this basic, but the whole point of this project is just to mess with the capabilities of electron)
