type Key ¶

type Key struct {
	Key    string
	Letter string
	// KeydownDelay defines the simulated delay after the keydown event before
	// the next keyevent is dispatched.
	KeydownDelay time.Duration
	// KeyupDelay defines the simulated delay after the keyup event before the
	// next keyevent is dispatched.
	KeyupDelay time.Duration
	Down, Up   bool
}

Key represents a single keyboard input. WARNING: This is experimental.

The fields Up and Down indicate if up/down events should be dispatched, which is used for simple modifier keys, e.g., the sequence Shift+A would generate the following sequence:

• Key: Shift, Down: true, Up: false
• Key: A, Down: true, Up: true
• Key: Shift, Down: false, Up: true

Modifier states are not properly represented, the individual keyboard events do not contain modifier information, i.e., in the previous example, the event for the "A" key doesn't include the shiftKey yet.

When simulating a string of keyboard events, KeydownDelay and KeyupDelay describes simulated delay after the keydown/keyup event before the next keyboard event in the sequence.
