I am wondering which libraries and functions to use in order to first read the initial keypress, block its initial output, and then simulate the keystroke that the program determines.
#PYTHON KEYPAD LAYOUT CODE#
Then, apply the code below to open the text file, and type the ‘Hello There’ phrase inside the text file (note that you’ll need to modify the path to reflect the location where the text file is stored on your computer): import os I want to make a smart keyboard layout on Windows with Python that determines the letter to be typed when a key is hit, after processing is done by the program. To start, you’ll need to create an empty text file.įor instance, let’s create a text file (called example_file) under the following path:

Scenario 4: Open a text file and then type textįor the final scenario, you’ll see how to apply a combination of all the previous functions reviewed. Pyautogui.press()Īs before, you can check the PyAutoGUI Documentation for the KEYBOARD_KEYS that you may use. Or by using the following code: import pyautogui Here is the complete code: import pyautoguiĪfter you run the code in Python, and then immediately click on your web page, you’ll notice that the web page would move down.Īlternatively, you can achieve the same results (of pressing the ‘pagedown’ key 3 times) by setting presses = 3: import pyautogui Once you run the code, click on your web browser and you’ll see how the web page scrolls down.Ī time delay of 3 seconds was added to allow you enough time to click on your web browser. Scenario 3: Press keyboard keys using the press() functionįor this scenario, you’ll see how to use the press() function in order to press the ‘pagedown’ key 3 times. You can check the PyAutoGUI Documentation for the KEYBOARD_KEYS that you may use. Once you run the code, you’ll get the Windows Start Menu. You can use the hotkey() function for hotkeys or keyboard shortcuts.įor instance, if you’re using Windows, you can use ctrl + esc to open the Windows Start Menu: import pyautogui Scenario 2: Press hotkeys using the hotkey() function Once you run the code, you’ll notice the 0.5 seconds delay after each character. Pyautogui.write('Hello There', interval = 0.5) You can take things further by adding a delay after typing each character.įor instance, let’s add 0.5 seconds delay (by adding an interval = 0.5) after typing each character: import pyautogui
