What is hotkeys-js?

The hotkeys-js npm package is a simple library for handling keyboard shortcuts in web applications. It allows developers to define and manage keyboard shortcuts with ease, providing a straightforward API for binding and unbinding keys.

What are hotkeys-js's main functionalities?

Binding a single key

This feature allows you to bind a single key to a function. In this example, pressing the 'A' key will trigger a console log message.

hotkeys('a', function(event, handler) {
  console.log('You pressed A!');
});

Binding multiple keys

This feature allows you to bind multiple keys to a single function. In this example, pressing either 'Ctrl+A' or 'Ctrl+B' will trigger the same console log message.

hotkeys('ctrl+a, ctrl+b', function(event, handler) {
  console.log('You pressed either Ctrl+A or Ctrl+B!');
});

Binding key combinations

This feature allows you to bind key combinations to a function. In this example, pressing 'Ctrl+Shift+K' will trigger a console log message.

hotkeys('ctrl+shift+k', function(event, handler) {
  console.log('You pressed Ctrl+Shift+K!');
});

Unbinding keys

This feature allows you to unbind a previously bound key. In this example, the 'A' key will no longer trigger any function.

hotkeys.unbind('a');

Filtering key events

This feature allows you to filter which key events should be processed by hotkeys-js. In this example, all key events will be processed.

hotkeys.filter = function(event) {
  return true; // Process all key events
};
