keyboard
========
Take full control of your keyboard with this small Python library. Hook
global events, register hotkeys, simulate key presses and much more.
Features
--------
- **Global event hook** on all keyboards (captures keys regardless of
focus).
- **Listen** and **send** keyboard events.
- Works with **Windows** and **Linux** (requires sudo), with
experimental **OS X** support (thanks @glitchassassin!).
- **Pure Python**, no C modules to be compiled.
- **Zero dependencies**. Trivial to install and deploy, just copy the
files.
- **Python 2 and 3**.
- Complex hotkey support (e.g. ``ctrl+shift+m, ctrl+space``) with
controllable timeout.
- Includes **high level API** (e.g. `record <#keyboard.record>`__ and
`play <#keyboard.play>`__,
`add_abbreviation <#keyboard.add_abbreviation>`__).
- Maps keys as they actually are in your layout, with **full
internationalization support** (e.g. ``Ctrl+ç``).
- Events automatically captured in separate thread, doesnt block main
program.
- Tested and documented.
- Doesnt break accented dead keys (Im looking at you, pyHook).
- Mouse support available via project
`mouse <https://github.com/boppreh/mouse>`__ (``pip install mouse``).
Usage
-----
Install the `PyPI package <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/keyboard/>`__:
::
pip install keyboard
or clone the repository (no installation required, source files are
sufficient):
::
git clone https://github.com/boppreh/keyboard
or `download and extract the
zip <https://github.com/boppreh/keyboard/archive/master.zip>`__ into
your project folder.
Then check the `API docs
below <https://github.com/boppreh/keyboard#api>`__ to see what features
are available.
Example
-------
.. code:: py
import keyboard
keyboard.press_and_release('shift+s, space')
keyboard.write('The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.')
keyboard.add_hotkey('ctrl+shift+a', print, args=('triggered', 'hotkey'))
# Press PAGE UP then PAGE DOWN to type "foobar".
keyboard.add_hotkey('page up, page down', lambda: keyboard.write('foobar'))
# Blocks until you press esc.
keyboard.wait('esc')
# Record events until 'esc' is pressed.
recorded = keyboard.record(until='esc')
# Then replay back at three times the speed.
keyboard.play(recorded, speed_factor=3)
# Type @@ then press space to replace with abbreviation.
keyboard.add_abbreviation('@@', 'my.long.email@example.com')
# Block forever, like `while True`.
keyboard.wait()
Known limitations:
------------------
- Events generated under Windows dont report device id
(``event.device == None``).
`#21 <https://github.com/boppreh/keyboard/issues/21>`__
- Media keys on Linux may appear nameless (scan-code only) or not at
all. `#20 <https://github.com/boppreh/keyboard/issues/20>`__
- Key suppression/blocking only available on Windows.
`#22 <https://github.com/boppreh/keyboard/issues/22>`__
- To avoid depending on X, the Linux parts reads raw device files
(``/dev/input/input*``) but this requries root.
- Other applications, such as some games, may register hooks that
swallow all key events. In this case ``keyboard`` will be unable to
report events.
- This program makes no attempt to hide itself, so dont use it for
keyloggers or online gaming bots. Be responsible.
