I'm writing a script that can open an Android app and play videos one after the other continuously via bluestacks emulator.
I have written a code that can write the name of the app in the search bar below, close to start button.. I am using Windows 10...
After searching the app, the pyautogui has not been able to locate the screenshot. I used pyautogui.locatescreenshot('C:\\photo.png) , but is it saying the file is empty.
I used snipping tool to screenshot the image as I was unable to screenshot using pyautogui.screenshot('screenshot_example.png')
So the code that I have now can type and search out the app, but can't open or click it...
I'm sorry if my explanation is wrong... I'm new to programming, as a matter of fact I just enrolled for Automate the boring task course in Udemy....

below is the code that I have written

MODIFIED

import pyautogui
import time
time.sleep(2)

while True:
pyautogui.click(x=175, y=749)
pyautogui.typewrite("My App", interval=0.1)
pyautogui.click(1568, 789)


I used pyautogui.locateOnScreen('C:\\odan.png') , but it says the image file is empty.....

I tried looking for the solution on youtube but to no avail...

Please help! I want to automate an app on PC via buestacks using Python

Next time learn how to be descriptive with your problem.
What exactly is your project about? (Aside it being an automation app, what should it be doing?)
What is your current problem?
What have your tried?
Lastly explain any code you post!
Hian!

If I understand your post. What you want to create is a bot that watch videos?
That's why you're running it on BlueStacks..
If that is the case you'll need to work with requests. Install fiddler on your machine and inspect the traffic. (There is a way to limit traffic to only your emulator on fiddler)
That will help you understand how to send your request.

Ok now I get an idea of what you’re doing. But let me ask

why ‘C://‘ and not ‘C:/‘ ?
Please check documentation page or online to be sure the file exist.

Really? Please show me how.... I have already installed fiddler, but I don't know how to use it.... As a matter of fact, I'm hearing of it for the first time.....
Please teach me.

I JUST CREATED THIS DOMAIN... I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEM COMMENTING ON THIS THREAD....

It tried it, but it didn't work. The file is still empty... Please can you try it on your PC and see?

To be honest all u want is on YouTube. I can't actually help you learn virtually.
When you're stuck ask questions.

I can point you to a sample code though if ur bot needs login/logout functionality

i cant really say much about desktop automation because i mostly use selenium and beautifulsoup for web automation but why not try pyautoit instead. its also another pretty module you can use.

by the way, have you tried the normal Python with open function and use that variable for the screenshot.

also, which coding environment are you using for the project.

I haven't tried pyautoit... I will try it and see...

I also haven't used the normal Python...

I am using pycharm...

that's what I mean. pycharm is an IDE which is mostly recommended for python coding. so its cool. just try autoit module and see how it goes.
