## Usage
|
|
|
|
To open the UI to modify the mappings, use:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
key-mapper-gtk
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also start it via your applications menu.
|
|
|
|
To keep injecting the mapping after closing the window, the daemon needs to
|
|
be running. If it doesn't already after logging in, you can use:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
key-mapper-service
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Macros
|
|
|
|
It is possible to write timed macros into the center column:
|
|
- `k(1).k(2)` 12
|
|
- `k(1).w(10).k(2)` 12
|
|
- `r(3, k(a).w(10))` aaa
|
|
- `r(2, k(a).k(-)).k(b)` a-a-b
|
|
- `w(1000).m(SHIFT_L, r(2, k(a))).w(10).k(b)` AAb
|
|
|
|
Documentation:
|
|
- `r` repeats the execution of the second parameter
|
|
- `w` waits in milliseconds
|
|
- `k` writes a single keystroke
|
|
- `m` holds a modifier while executing the second parameter
|
|
- `.` executes two actions behind each other
|
|
|
|
For a list of supported keystrokes and their names, check the output of `xmodmap -pke`
|
|
|
|
Maybe you shouldn't use this feature in online PVP though. Might even get
|
|
detected by the game.

|
## Git Installation
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/sezanzeb/key-mapper.git
|
|
cd key-mapper
|
|
sudo python3 setup.py install
|
|
usermod -a -G input $USER
|
|
usermod -a -G plugdev $USER
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Depending on how those packages are called in your distro,
|
|
you need the following dependencies:
|
|
|
|
`python3-distutils-extra` `python3-evdev` `python3-dbus`
|
|
|
|
It works with both Wayland and X11.
|
|
|
|
## Tests
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pylint keymapper --extension-pkg-whitelist=evdev
|
|
sudo python3 setup.py install && python3 tests/test.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Roadmap
|
|
|
|
- [x] show a dropdown to select valid devices
|
|
- [x] creating presets per device
|
|
- [x] renaming presets
|
|
- [x] show a mapping table
|
|
- [x] make that list extend itself automatically
|
|
- [x] read keycodes with evdev
|
|
- [x] inject the mapping
|
|
- [x] keep the system defaults for unmapped buttons
|
|
- [x] button to stop mapping and using system defaults
|
|
- [x] highlight changes and alert before discarding unsaved changes
|
|
- [x] automatically load presets on login for plugged in devices
|
|
- [x] make sure it works on wayland
|
|
- [ ] support timed macros, maybe using some sort of syntax
|
|
- [ ] add to the AUR, provide .deb and .appimage files
|
|
- [ ] automatically load presets when devices get plugged in after login
