AutoHotkey Plugin for Macro Deck 2

Macro Deck 2 Community Plugin: does NOT work in Macro Deck Server or a standalone program

---

Run AutoHotkey script

Choose your existing AHK script file and leave it! It will now work!

Write and Run AutoHotkey scripts

or, Write a new AHK script and leave it! AHK Plugin will run it if you pressed the action button!

Variables [2.0.0+]

Writing scripts within Macro-Deck allows using Variables. Since AHK makes use of { and } we use double {{ and }} to indicate a Variable in AWH WriteScripts (example {{my_variable}}). Example:

MsgBox, It is now {{time}} and the date is {{date}}.

Thanks @Timoses for coding this feature!

AutoHotkey Plugin Library for AutoHotkey 1.1 [3.0.0+]

⚠️ This feature is now depectated. This will be replaced by AHKPLibv2 that uses StdOut instead of Websockets to ensure v1 and v2 compatibility.

Using the WriteScript v1.1 action now allows you to make communication to AHK Plugin to create a variable, get variables, update variables, create a notification and more. Example:

#Include AHKPLib.ahk
ExampleApp := new AHKPLib()
MsgBox % ExampleApp.GetVar("date")

Documentation is available on the link above.

Automation

From pushing a key combination to automating PowerPoint [RIP Office (the name)], AHK Plugin can do that. Use AHK Plugin with other plugins for automated tasks in Macro Deck!

Features

AHK Plugin has these actions:

Action	Description	Status
Run AHK Script	Run a AutoHotkey script	Live
Write and Run AHK Script	Write and run a AHK Script	Live
Window Spy	AHK's built-in Window Spy	Live
More features coming soon.

Supports AHK version 2!

AHK Plugin supports AutoHotkey version 2 and you can interchange version 1 and 2 [1.1.0].

Notes

This is a plugin for Macro Deck 2, it does NOT function as a standalone app
This requires AutoHotkey (AHKv2 is optional) and needs to be pointed to the folder path that AHK is on.
