Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Usage

You will need Node.js installed on your system.

npm install hotkeys-js --save
import hotkeys from 'hotkeys-js';

hotkeys('f5', function(event, handler){
  // Prevent the default refresh event under WINDOWS system
  event.preventDefault()
  alert('you pressed F5!')
});

Or manually download and link hotkeys.js in your HTML, It can also be downloaded via UNPKG:

CDN: UNPKG | jsDelivr | Githack | Statically | bundle.run

<script src="https://unpkg.com/hotkeys-js/dist/hotkeys.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
hotkeys('ctrl+a,ctrl+b,r,f', function (event, handler){
  switch (handler.key) {
    case 'ctrl+a': alert('you pressed ctrl+a!');
      break;
    case 'ctrl+b': alert('you pressed ctrl+b!');
      break;
    case 'r': alert('you pressed r!');
      break;
    case 'f': alert('you pressed f!');
      break;
    default: alert(event);
  }
});
</script>

Used in React

react-hotkeys is the React component that listen to keydown and keyup keyboard events, defining and dispatching keyboard shortcuts. Detailed use method please see its documentation react-hotkeys.

react-hotkeys-hook - React hook for using keyboard shortcuts in components. Make sure that you have at least version 16.8 of react and react-dom installed, or otherwise hooks won't work for you.

Browser Support

Hotkeys.js has been tested and should work in.

Internet Explorer 6+
Safari
Firefox
Chrome

Supported Keys

HotKeys understands the following modifiers: , shift, option, , alt, ctrl, control, command, and .

The following special keys can be used for shortcuts: backspace, tab, clear, enter, return, esc, escape, space, up, down, left, right, home, end, pageup, pagedown, del, delete, f1 through f19, num_0 through num_9, num_multiply, num_add, num_enter, num_subtract, num_decimal, num_divide.

Command() Control Option(alt) Shift Caps Lock(Capital) ~~fn Does not support fn~~ ↩︎ return/Enter space

Defining Shortcuts

One global method is exposed, key which defines shortcuts when called directly.

hotkeys([keys:<String>], [option:[string|object|function]], [callback:<function>])
hotkeys('f5', function(event, handler) {
  // Prevent the default refresh event under WINDOWS system
  event.preventDefault();
  alert('you pressed F5!');
});

// Returning false stops the event and prevents default browser events
// Mac OS system defines `command + r` as a refresh shortcut
hotkeys('ctrl+r, command+r', function() {
  alert('stopped reload!');
  return false;
});

// Single key
hotkeys('a', function(event,handler){
  //event.srcElement: input
  //event.target: input
  if(event.target === "input"){
      alert('you pressed a!')
  }
  alert('you pressed a!')
});

// Key Combination
hotkeys('ctrl+a,ctrl+b,r,f', function (event, handler){
  switch (handler.key) {
    case 'ctrl+a': alert('you pressed ctrl+a!');
      break;
    case 'ctrl+b': alert('you pressed ctrl+b!');
      break;
    case 'r': alert('you pressed r!');
      break;
    case 'f': alert('you pressed f!');
      break;
    default: alert(event);
  }
});

hotkeys('ctrl+a+s', function() {
    alert('you pressed ctrl+a+s!');
});

// Using a scope
hotkeys('*','wcj', function(event){
  console.log('do something', event);
});

option

  • scope<String>
  • element<HTMLElement>
  • keyup<Boolean>
  • keydown<Boolean>
  • splitKey<string> (default is +)
  • capture<Boolean>
  • single<Boolean>
hotkeys('o, enter', {
  scope: 'wcj',
  element: document.getElementById('wrapper'),
}, function() {
  console.log('do something else');
});

hotkeys('ctrl-+', { splitKey: '-' }, function(e) {
  console.log('you pressed ctrl and +');
});

hotkeys('+', { splitKey: '-' }, function(e){
  console.log('you pressed +');
})

keyup

key down and key up both perform callback events.

hotkeys('ctrl+a,alt+a+s', {keyup: true}, function(event, handler) {
  if (event.type === 'keydown') {
    console.log('keydown:', event.type, handler, handler.key);
  }

  if (event.type === 'keyup') {
    console.log('keyup:', event.type, handler, handler.key);
  }
});

API REFERENCE

Asterisk "*"

Modifier key judgments

hotkeys('*', function() {
  if (hotkeys.shift) {
    console.log('shift is pressed!');
  }

  if (hotkeys.ctrl) {
    console.log('ctrl is pressed!');
  }

  if (hotkeys.alt) {
    console.log('alt is pressed!');
  }

  if (hotkeys.option) {
    console.log('option is pressed!');
  }

  if (hotkeys.control) {
    console.log('control is pressed!');
  }

  if (hotkeys.cmd) {
    console.log('cmd is pressed!');
  }

  if (hotkeys.command) {
    console.log('command is pressed!');
  }
});

setScope

Use the hotkeys.setScope method to set scope. There can only be one active scope besides 'all'. By default 'all' is always active.

// Define shortcuts with a scope
hotkeys('ctrl+o, ctrl+alt+enter', 'issues', function() {
  console.log('do something');
});
hotkeys('o, enter', 'files', function() {
  console.log('do something else');
});

// Set the scope (only 'all' and 'issues' shortcuts will be honored)
hotkeys.setScope('issues'); // default scope is 'all'

getScope

Use the hotkeys.getScope method to get scope.

hotkeys.getScope();

deleteScope

Use the hotkeys.deleteScope method to delete a scope. This will also remove all associated hotkeys with it.

hotkeys.deleteScope('issues');

You can use second argument, if need set new scope after deleting.

hotkeys.deleteScope('issues', 'newScopeName');

unbind

Similar to defining shortcuts, they can be unbound using hotkeys.unbind.

// unbind 'a' handler
hotkeys.unbind('a');

// Unbind a hotkeys only for a single scope
// If no scope is specified it defaults to the current scope (hotkeys.getScope())
hotkeys.unbind('o, enter', 'issues');
hotkeys.unbind('o, enter', 'files');

Unbind events through functions.

function example() {
  hotkeys('a', example);
  hotkeys.unbind('a', example);

  hotkeys('a', 'issues', example);
  hotkeys.unbind('a', 'issues', example);
}

To unbind everything.

hotkeys.unbind();

isPressed

For example, hotkeys.isPressed(77) is true if the M key is currently pressed.

hotkeys('a', function() {
  console.log(hotkeys.isPressed('a')); //=> true
  console.log(hotkeys.isPressed('A')); //=> true
  console.log(hotkeys.isPressed(65)); //=> true
});

trigger

trigger shortcut key event

hotkeys.trigger('ctrl+o');
hotkeys.trigger('ctrl+o', 'scope2');

getPressedKeyCodes

Returns an array of key codes currently pressed.

hotkeys('command+ctrl+shift+a,f', function() {
  console.log(hotkeys.getPressedKeyCodes()); //=> [17, 65] or [70]
})

getPressedKeyString

Returns an array of key codes currently pressed.

hotkeys('command+ctrl+shift+a,f', function() {
  console.log(hotkeys.getPressedKeyString()); //=> ['⌘', '⌃', '⇧', 'A', 'F']
})

getAllKeyCodes

Get a list of all registration codes.

hotkeys('command+ctrl+shift+a,f', function() {
  console.log(hotkeys.getAllKeyCodes());
  // [
  //   { scope: 'all', shortcut: 'command+ctrl+shift+a', mods: [91, 17, 16], keys: [91, 17, 16, 65] },
  //   { scope: 'all', shortcut: 'f', mods: [], keys: [42] }
  // ]
})

filter

By default hotkeys are not enabled for INPUT SELECT TEXTAREA elements. Hotkeys.filter to return to the true shortcut keys set to play a role, false shortcut keys set up failure.

hotkeys.filter = function(event){
  return true;
}
//How to add the filter to edit labels. <div contentEditable="true"></div>
//"contentEditable" Older browsers that do not support drops
hotkeys.filter = function(event) {
  var target = event.target || event.srcElement;
  var tagName = target.tagName;
  return !(target.isContentEditable || tagName == 'INPUT' || tagName == 'SELECT' || tagName == 'TEXTAREA');
}

hotkeys.filter = function(event){
  var tagName = (event.target || event.srcElement).tagName;
  hotkeys.setScope(/^(INPUT|TEXTAREA|SELECT)$/.test(tagName) ? 'input' : 'other');
  return true;
}

noConflict

Relinquish HotKeys’s control of the hotkeys variable.

var k = hotkeys.noConflict();
k('a', function() {
  console.log("do something")
});

hotkeys()
// -->Uncaught TypeError: hotkeys is not a function(anonymous function)
// @ VM2170:2InjectedScript._evaluateOn
// @ VM2165:883InjectedScript._evaluateAndWrap
// @ VM2165:816InjectedScript.evaluate @ VM2165:682
