lepikevents
Advanced tools
An event based, Global Keyboard and Mouse listener.
Lepik Events is only part from LepikJS. Definitely try it out
npm install lepikevents
// Require lepikEvents
const lepikEvents = require('lepikevents');
lepikEvents.events.on('keyRelease', (data) => {
// Returns key released as String
console.log(data); // e||esc||space||backspace ...
});
lepikEvents.events.on('mouseClick', (data) => {
// Returns array containing mouse position x, y and button clicked
console.log(data); // [361, 235, *1]
// *1 for left, 2 for right, 3 for middle
});
Curently there are only 2 events, mouseClick and keyRelease. I will try to implement more in future.
Lepik Events uses Python keyboard and Python mouse which runs on Python.
If your are on Windows, then you don't even have to have it installed, cause thanks to Pyinstaller, the code is compiled into executable.
If you are not using windows, you need to have Python3 installed.
