The Java Macros Project is a versatile tool designed to automate repetitive tasks and enhance productivity. It allows users to define and execute custom macros in a Java-based environment, streamlining workflows and simplifying complex processes.

• Custom Macro Definitions: Create macros with specific triggers and actions.
• Environment Variable Integration: Use AES-256 to secure sensitive data on disk.
• User-Friendly Interface: Easy-to-navigate interface for managing and executing macros.
• Cross-Platform Support: Compatible with various operating systems.
• Robust Database Management: Uses a PostgreSQL database for storing and managing macro configurations.

git clone https://github.com/physine/macros.gitcd macros

• Java JDK 8 or later.
• PostgreSQL database, with a table defined like so (see persistence.xml for DB setup details):

  CREATETABLEmacros (idSERIALPRIMARY KEY,triggerVARCHAR(255)NOT NULL UNIQUE,targetVARCHAR(255)NOT NULL);

• Set an environment variableAES_ENCRYPTION_KEY of 32 bytes. Generate a key using:

python -c"import os, binascii; print(binascii.hexlify(os.urandom(16)).decode())"

Once in themacros project directory:

cd path\to\macrosmvn package

Create a batch file to simplify the execution of the macros project, it will look like.

@echooffjava -jar target/macros-1.0.jar%*

and run it from the command line or add it to the start-up folder.

• active window macros maybe
