how to detect key input in python code example
Example 1: python check key press
import keyboard
# if key 'a' is pressed
if keyboard.is_pressed('a'):
print('a key has ben pressed')
Example 2: python get keypressed value
import keyboard # using module keyboard
while True: # making a loop
try: # used try so that if user pressed other than the given key error will not be shown
if keyboard.is_pressed('q'): # if key 'q' is pressed
print('You Pressed A Key!')
break # finishing the loop
except:
break # if user pressed a key other than the given key the loop will break
Example 3: python keyboard press
import keyboard # using module keyboard
import time
stop = False
def onkeypress(event):
global stop
if event.name == 'q':
stop = True
# ---------> hook event handler
keyboard.on_press(onkeypress)
# --------->
while True: # making a loop
try: # used try so that if user pressed other than the given key error will not be shown
print("sleeping")
time.sleep(5)
print("slept")
if stop: # if key 'q' is pressed
print('You Pressed A Key!')
break # finishing the loop
except:
print("#######")
break # if user pressed a key other than the given key the loop will break
