automate mouse click for time lapse any script or plug in for luciole?

[breakscomputers]

Hello all!
I'm hoping someone here knows of a way to macro my mouse clicks.
I am using luciole to take time lapse pics of events like plants growing ice freezing, sun and star movements and the like.

I gutted an air wick room sprayer and a mouse but I'd like finer control.
The little arm comes down and clicks the left mouse button every 9 , 18, or 36 minutes

There is no timer function on luciole for some reason.

Is there a script or plugin I could use to control my mouse left click to make it go off anywhere from 1 time a second to one one time a day?

I am using UBUNTU

Thank you for your time

Peter

I'm not sure what luciole provides, but you can easily script gstreamer to grab frames from a webcam.

gst-launch v4l2src ! ffmpegcolorspace ! pngenc ! filesink location=foo.png

Put that in a loop that outputs to a file sequence (location=foo0001.png, location=foo0002.png, ...), sleeping however long you need between each capture.

Would that meet your needs?
