Simple map of keyboard codes.
$ npm install keycode$ component install timoxley/keycodevar keycode = require('keycode');
document.addEventListener('keydown', function(e) {
console.log("You pressed", keycode(e))
})keycode tries to make an intelligent guess as to what
you're trying to discover based on the type of argument
you supply.
Returns the name of the key associated with this event.
document.body.addEventListener('keyup', function(e) {
console.log(keycode(e)) // prints name of key
})Due to the keypress event being weird,keycode currently does not support the keypress event, but this should not be an issue as keydown and keyup work perfectly fine.
Returns the lowercase name of a given numeric keycode.
keycode(13) // => 'enter'Returns the numeric keycode for given key name.
keycode('Enter') // => 13
// keycode is not case sensitive
keycode('eNtEr') // => 13Common aliases are also supplied:
> for (var alias in keycode.aliases) { console.log(alias, keycode(keycode(alias))) }

spc spaceTests if an keyboard event against a given name or keycode.
Will return true if the event matches the given name or keycode, false otherwise.
// assume event is an keydown event with key 'enter'
keycode.isEventKey(event, 'enter') // => true
keycode.isEventKey(event, 'down') // => false
keycode.isEventKey(event, 13) // => true
keycode.isEventKey(event, 40) // => falseKey code/name maps are available directly as keycode.codes and keycode.names respectively.
keycode.names[13] // => 'enter'
keycode.codes['enter'] // => 13 project : keycode
