Key Mapper

Doesn't work yet

GUI tool to map input buttons to e.g. change the macro keys of a mouse or any keyboard to something different. It should not be device specific, any input device supported by Linux plug and play will likely work.

Running

sudo python3 setup.py install && sudo key-mapper-gtk -d

Dependencies

No idea which one are relevant at the moment

evtest, libinput, python-evdev

Tests

sudo is required because some tests actually read /dev stuff.

sudo python3 setup.py install && sudo python3 tests/test.py

Roadmap

  • show a dropdown to select an arbitrary device from xinput list
  • creating presets per device
  • support X, but make it somewhat easy to add wayland to this tool.
  • renaming presets
  • show a list that can be extended with a [+] button
  • The list shows [keycode, current key for that keycode -> target]
  • generate a file for /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/ for each preset, (symlink to home .config/?)
  • load that file with setxkbmap preset1234 -device 13 (on startup?, udev on mouse connect?)
