## What will be covered in this Blog

```python
1. PyAutoGUI Introduction
2. Automating Whatsapp | Facebook | Instagram Chat-Messenger
```

*Let's get started!*

## What is PyAutoGUI?

- PyAutoGUI is a cross-platform GUI automation Python module.
- PyAutoGUI lets your Python scripts control the mouse and keyboard to automate interactions with other applications.
- PyAutoGUI works on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and runs on Python 2 and 3.

If you wish to know more about it, you can refer to [PyAutoGUI Documentation](https://pyautogui.readthedocs.io/en/latest/). Use this link to navigate to the documentation.

Now that you are familiar with *with our agenda* and have acquired basic knowledge of *PyAutoGUI module,* we can move forward to *the coding section.*

## Time to Code!

You can find all the code at my [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/ayushi7rawat/Youtube-Projects/tree/master/Automate%20any%20Chat-messanger). **Drop a star** if you find it useful.

In order to access the Python library, you need to install it first. 

```python
pip install pyautogui
```

Once installed, lets import it into your Python environment, use the following command to import `pyautogui` it in your python script.

```python
import pyautogui
import time
```

We do not want our script to start off with immediate execution, so we need to introduce time module here. Make sure to import `time` before using it.

```python
time.sleep(5)
```

Now let's store the data that you wish to use for automation. I am calling it as text, you can name it anything you like. So basically, you can send the data stored in `text` to desired user unlimited no of times. 

```python
text = 'I Love Python'
```

To automate, we will make use of `typewrite` method from`pyautogui` module, it will type each character present in the message on the screen at the cursor location.

Next, we will call the `press` method, it performs a keyboard key press down, followed by a release, for each of the characters in the message. So, we will pass `enter` as our argument here, i.e. the script will press enter once the text is typed in the chat messenger.

To provide some margin between the two, let's introduce `sleep`  and finally we will enclose our code in a while loop for repetitive execution manner. 

```python
while True:
    pyautogui.typewrite(text)
    
    time.sleep(2)
    pyautogui.press('enter')
```

Now, open the chat messenger in your browser in a new tab. Once done, save and run the python script. Once the execution starts, make sure to place your cursor in the right place. 

If you wish to limit the no of times the script sends message to the user you can do so by modifying the while loop.

 That's it. we are done. You can customize your code further to perform different actions according to your need.

With these steps, we have successfully **Automated a Chat-Messenger.** That's it! You can play around with the `pyautogui` library and even explore more features.
