I want to detect keystrokes in python code. I already try a lot of methods with different libraries but all of them cant detect the UTF keyboard input and only detect Ascii. For example, I want to detect Unicode characters like ("د") or ("ۼ") if a user typed these keys. It means that if I press Alt+Shift it changes my input to another language which uses Unicode characters and I want to detect them.
IMPORTANT:
I need Windows version.
It must detect keystrokes even not focusing on the terminal.
Suppose this simple example:
from pynput import keyboard
def on_press(key):
try:
print(key.char)
except AttributeError:
print(key)
if __name__ == "__main__":
with keyboard.Listener(on_press=on_press) as listener:
listener.join()
解决方案
Here is the code which returns the number of Unicode. It cannot detect the current language and always shows the old one but only in cmd window itself and if you focus on any other window it shows the current Unicode number perfectly.
from pynput import keyboard
def on_press(key):
if key == keyboard.Key.esc:
listener.stop()
else:
print(ord(getattr(key, 'char', '0')))
controller = keyboard.Controller()
with keyboard.Listener(
on_press=on_press) as listener:
listener.join()
