Event From

Determine if a DOM Event was caused by mouse, touch, or key input.

npm install --save event-from

import { eventFrom } from "event-from";

// event is any DOM Event
eventFrom(event): "mouse" | "touch" | "key";

Ignore MouseEvents that were caused by touch input

import { eventFrom } from "event-from";

const handleMouseEnter = (e) => {
  if (eventFrom(e) !== "mouse") return;
  // code for handling mouse enter event from mouse input
};

element.addEventListener("mouseenter", handleMouseEnter, false);

Determine if a FocusEvent was caused by key input for accessibility

import { eventFrom } from "event-from";

const handleFocus = (e) => {
  if (eventFrom(e) === "key") {
    // set focus styles for accessibility from keyboard input
  }
};
