input_event_codes_hashmap

This crate provides HashMaps to look up the u32 value for a given input event code. The lazy-static crate is used so they are only created, if you used them. The codes are taken from input-event-codes.h.

Usage

There are the HashMaps ABS, BTN, EV, INPUT_PROP, KEY, LED, MSC, REL, REP, SND, SW and SYN. The prefix tells you which HashMap to use. If you are looking for KEY_T, you want to search in the KEY HashMap for "T". No need to repeat the prefix. There is an example on how to find the u32 value for KEY_T. It's as easy as:

use input_event_codes_hashmap::KEY;

fn main() {
    let keycode_name = "T";
    if let Some(keycode_value) = KEY.get(keycode_name) {
        println!("The u32 value for {} is {}", keycode_name, keycode_value);
    } else {
        println!("The u32 value could not be found");
    }
}

You can run the example by entering the following command:

cargo run --example example
