Keyboard Types

Contains types to define keyboard related events.

The naming and conventions follow the UI Events specification but this crate should be useful for anyone implementing keyboard input in a cross-platform way.

See also: UI Events Specification, and in particular the section on keyboard events.

Minimum Support Rust Version (MSRV)

The minimum supported Rust version is 1.61, or 1.81 if the "std" Cargo feature is disabled. This is not defined by policy, and may change at any time in a patch release.

Updating Generated Code

The file src/key.rs and src/code.rs are derived from the two W3C working drafts

• UI Events KeyboardEvent key Values and
• UI Events KeyboardEvent code Values

in the most recent version. A Python 3 script (requires the requests and beautifulsoup4 libraries) downloads the files and updates the tables.

Manually check if any modifier keys were changed and update the src/modifiers.rs file if necessary.
