> Configure local and global keyboard shortcuts
|
## Overview
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Local Shortcuts
|
This feature allows you to configure local and global keyboard shortcuts
|
||||||
|
for your Electron application.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can use the [Menu] module to configure keyboard shortcuts that will
|
## Example
|
||||||
be triggered only when the app is focused. To do so, specify an
|
|
||||||
[`accelerator`] property when creating a [MenuItem].
|
### Local Shortcuts
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Local keyboard shortcuts are triggered only when the application is focused.
|
||||||
|
To configure a local keyboard shortcut, you need to specify an [`accelerator`]
|
||||||
|
property when creating a [MenuItem] within the [Menu] module.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Starting with a working application from the
|
||||||
|
[Quick Start Guide](quick-start.md), update the `main.js` file with the
|
||||||
|
following lines:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```js
|
```js
|
||||||
const { Menu, MenuItem } = require('electron')
|
const { Menu, MenuItem } = require('electron')
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
const menu = new Menu()
|
const menu = new Menu()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
menu.append(new MenuItem({
|
menu.append(new MenuItem({
|
||||||
label: 'Print',
|
label: 'Electron',
|
||||||
accelerator: 'CmdOrCtrl+P',
|
submenu: [{
|
||||||
click: () => { console.log('time to print stuff') }
|
role: 'help',
|
||||||
|
accelerator: process.platform === 'darwin' ? 'Alt+Cmd+I' : 'Alt+Shift+I',
|
||||||
|
click: () => { console.log('Electron rocks!') }
|
||||||
|
}]
|
||||||
}))
|
}))
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Menu.setApplicationMenu(menu)
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can configure different key combinations based on the user's operating system.
|
> NOTE: In the code above, you can see that the accelerator differs based on the
|
||||||
|
user's operating system. For MacOS, it is `Alt+Cmd+I`, whereas for Linux and
|
||||||
|
Windows, it is `Alt+Shift+I`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```js
|
After launching the Electron application, you should see the application menu
|
||||||
{
|
along with the local shortcut you just defined:
|
||||||
accelerator: process.platform === 'darwin' ? 'Alt+Cmd+I' : 'Ctrl+Shift+I'
|
|
||||||
}
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Global Shortcuts
|
![Menu with a local shortcut](../images/local-shortcut.png)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can use the [globalShortcut] module to detect keyboard events even when
|
If you click `Help` or press the defined accelerator and then open the terminal
|
||||||
the application does not have keyboard focus.
|
that you ran your Electron application from, you will see the message that was
|
||||||
|
generated after triggering the `click` event: "Electron rocks!".
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Global Shortcuts
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To configure a global keyboard shortcut, you need to use the [globalShortcut]
|
||||||
|
module to detect keyboard events even when the application does not have
|
||||||
|
keyboard focus.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Starting with a working application from the
|
||||||
|
[Quick Start Guide](quick-start.md), update the `main.js` file with the
|
||||||
|
following lines:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```js
|
```js
|
||||||
const { app, globalShortcut } = require('electron')
|
const { app, globalShortcut } = require('electron')
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
app.whenReady().then(() => {
|
app.whenReady().then(() => {
|
||||||
globalShortcut.register('CommandOrControl+X', () => {
|
globalShortcut.register('Alt+CommandOrControl+I', () => {
|
||||||
console.log('CommandOrControl+X is pressed')
|
console.log('Electron loves global shortcuts!')
|
||||||
})
|
})
|
||||||
})
|
}).then(createWindow)
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Shortcuts within a BrowserWindow
|
> NOTE: In the code above, the `CommandOrControl` combination uses `Command`
|
||||||
|
on macOS and `Control` on Windows/Linux.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you want to handle keyboard shortcuts for a [BrowserWindow], you can use the `keyup` and `keydown` event listeners on the window object inside the renderer process.
|
After launching the Electron application, if you press the defined key
|
||||||
|
combination then open the terminal that you ran your Electron application from,
|
||||||
|
you will see that Electron loves global shortcuts!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Shortcuts within a BrowserWindow
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Using web APIs
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you want to handle keyboard shortcuts within a [BrowserWindow], you can
|
||||||
|
listen for the `keyup` and `keydown` [DOM events][dom-events] inside the
|
||||||
|
renderer process using the [addEventListener() API][addEventListener-api].
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```js
|
```js
|
||||||
window.addEventListener('keyup', doSomething, true)
|
window.addEventListener('keyup', doSomething, true)
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Note the third parameter `true` which means the listener will always receive key presses before other listeners so they can't have `stopPropagation()` called on them.

Note the third parameter `true` indicates that the listener will always receive
|
||||||
|
key presses before other listeners so they can't have `stopPropagation()`
|
||||||

called on them.

||||||
|
|
||||||

If you don't want to do manual shortcut parsing there are libraries that do advanced key detection such as [mousetrap].
|
##### Example
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Starting with a working application from the
|
||||||
|
[Quick Start Guide](quick-start.md), update the `main.js` file with the
|
||||||
|
following lines:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```js
|
||||||
|
const { app, BrowserWindow } = require('electron')
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
app.whenReady().then(() => {
|
||||||
|
const win = new BrowserWindow({ width: 800, height: 600, webPreferences: { nodeIntegration: true } })
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
win.loadFile('index.html')
|
||||||
|
win.webContents.on('before-input-event', (event, input) => {
|
||||||
|
if (input.control && input.key.toLowerCase() === 'i') {
|
||||||
|
console.log('Pressed Control+I')
|
||||||
|
event.preventDefault()
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
})
|
||||||
|
})
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After launching the Electron application, if you open the terminal that you ran
|
||||||
|
your Electron application from and press `Ctrl+I` key combination, you will
|
||||||
|
see that this key combination was successfully intercepted.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Using third-party libraries
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you don't want to do manual shortcut parsing, there are libraries that do
|
||||||
|
advanced key detection, such as [mousetrap]. Below are examples of usage of the
|
||||||
|
`mousetrap` running in the Renderer process:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```js
|
```js
|
||||||
Mousetrap.bind('4', () => { console.log('4') })
|
Mousetrap.bind('4', () => { console.log('4') })
