controlloid-server

This is the server for the Controlloid application.

Windoze instructions

Go into /dist/windows/ folder and run start.bat
On first run it will install and configure required software (vJoy)
This takes a while and you should accept all the prompts for a successful install
Press any key to close the setup window
Now you can see available addresses on the server window (KEEP IT OPEN)
Pick one in the same network as your phone and write it exactly in the application
Alternatively, scan available servers in the application and pick one (should be only one)
Done!

The server uses the uinput kernel module to emulate real input
This kernel module is loaded automatically on most linux distros
If your linux distro doesn't load the module automatically then you need to load it manually (after every reboot) by running sudo modprobe uinput
If you want it to be loaded automatically, then follow this guide for systemd distros by replacing the module given in the example with uinput

This is caused by restrictive permissions on /dev/uinput
Go into the project /dist/linux/udev folder and run sudo ./setup.sh $USER
Wait for the script to finish, make sure that there were no errors and reboot the machine
Done!
