python type on keyboard code example
Example 1: how to simulate a key press in python
# in command prompt, type "pip install pynput" to install pynput.
from pynput.keyboard import Key, Controller
keyboard = Controller()
key = "a"
keyboard.press(key)
keyboard.release(key)
Example 2: Presskeys in python
import pyautogui
# Holds down the alt key
pyautogui.keyDown("alt")
# Presses the tab key once
pyautogui.press("tab")
# Lets go of the alt key
pyautogui.keyUp("alt")
Example 3: python type on keyboard
pip install keyboard
import keyboard
keyboard.press_and_release('shift+s, space')
keyboard.write('The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.')
keyboard.add_hotkey('ctrl+shift+a', print, args=('triggered', 'hotkey'))
# Press PAGE UP then PAGE DOWN to type "foobar".
keyboard.add_hotkey('page up, page down', lambda: keyboard.write('foobar'))
# Blocks until you press esc.
keyboard.wait('esc')
# Record events until 'esc' is pressed.
recorded = keyboard.record(until='esc')
# Then replay back at three times the speed.
keyboard.play(recorded, speed_factor=3)
# Type @@ then press space to replace with abbreviation.
keyboard.add_abbreviation('@@', '[email protected]')
# Block forever, like `while True`.
keyboard.wait()
