SikuliX

Handle multiple windows, each as an object

Asked by Joe Burke

I'm using the latest Sikuli .

I have a java based app that when a specific action is clicked, it will open a new child window that emulates an SSH terminal.

I want to be able to do 2 things:
1. supply a flat file set of commands to the SSH terminal.
If I was using command line SSH, I would simply do: cat myFlatFile | ssh -i <key> user@127.0.0.5

This will simulate the user typing in set of commands into the SSH terminal.

2. I need to open multiples of the SSH terminal windows and do the action in #1 above for each one.

Higher priority is #2
how can I
a. launch the ssh terminal (done),
b. grab a hold of the whole window as its own object, then
c. pass in commands to the terminal

Thanks in advance.

not sure, what this has to do with SikuliX?

do you want to use SikuliX, to type the commands into the ssh window?

Yes.

I will have multiple ssh windows open.

I will want to treat each ssh window as an object and then type commands
into each window.

From the docs the closest thing I could see was a region, but the region
seemed more associated to the screen rather than a window.

Unfortunately I only have a single app running and it is spawning the
multiple ssh windows, so the app object will not work either.

Sikuli is just simulating key presses and mouse actions and doing screen image comparison.
So whatever problem you have, the first thing you should think about is: How would I do this manually?

Consider how you would act with two ssh windows open on your screen; how would you identify the different ones; how would you switch from one to the other ...
