Record user activities and repeat. Recording an Action from a script?

Post by Alex_the_Cat »

Hello!

The task is to record custom user activities made with some layer and repeat them on another layer.

The only way I can see at the moment is to use the ScriptingListener plugin.
A jsx script initiates recording, next script stop it, then read and analyze log, remove unnecessary parts and execute it as another jsx script.

Is there perhaps an easier way?
If it is possible to initiate Action recording from a script?
Maybe from UXP?

Thanks in advance.
