The backend should be able to do the following:

• Start websocket server
• Handle websocket connection
• Move mouse (Up, Down, Left, Right)
• Draw circle, rectangle and square
• Send current mouse coordinates
• Send desktop capture (optionally)

Technical requirements

• Task can be implemented on Javascript or Typescript
• Use 18 LTS version of Node.js
• Only ws, nutjs.dev, cross-env, typescript, ts-node, ts-node-dev, nodemon, dotenv, eslint and its plugins, webpack and its plugins, prettier, @types/* and testing tools (for example, Jest, Mocha, AVA, Jasmine, Cypress, Storybook, Puppeteer) are allowed

List of websocket commands and their syntax (<- - cmd from frontend, -> - answer):

• Navigation over the x and y axis
  • Move mouse up

  <- mouse_up {y px}

  • Move mouse down

  <- mouse_down {y px}

  • Move mouse left

  <- mouse_left {x px}

  • Move mouse right

  • Draw rectangle with pushed left button:

  <- draw_rectangle {px} {px}

  • Draw square with pushed left button:

  <- draw_square {px}

  • Make print screen command and send image (a base64 buffer of the 200 px square around the mouse position):

  <- prnt_scrn
  -> prnt_scrn {base64 string (png buf)}
