Pynput Alternatives

pynput reviews and mentions

• Installing Pynput on the Deck
  1 project | /r/steamdeck_linux | 19 Feb 2023

  Saw this post but I'm not sure if that's the solution to my problem. I'm not so familiar with Linux kernels and all that so I'm being cautious. I have more details in this post on the pynput repo

• Alternative to pyautogui for mouse click
  3 projects | /r/learnpython | 27 Aug 2022

  There's pynput but that might have the same problem. If you're on Windows AutoHotkey is an awesome way to automate mouse and keyboard actions (but it's a different language than Python, although it seems someone has made a Python wrapper for it).

• I made a fun Polybar module that visualizes your typing speed
  2 projects | /r/Polybar | 6 Aug 2022

  I updated the script to use pynput instead of xlib, meaning that according to this thread, it should also work on wayland now! If anyone would like to test this for me, please do so and report back! :-)

• What's the alternative of Authotkey ?
  5 projects | /r/linuxmint | 1 Aug 2022

  Autohotkey is also a scripting language. If you want parity there, there's robotJS, pynput, and xdotool (though this one won't work on some future version of mint when a piece of tech it relies on gets upgraded).

• Testing a python script on wine to check for windows problems, have problem i'm not sure exists in windows, help?

  which is supposed to present a selection list in the console, only the selection doesn't move in wine. I don't have a test case code ready for it. Another is pynput : https://github.com/moses-palmer/pynput

• trying to emulate keyboard and mouse without a user logged in.
  1 project | /r/learnpython | 26 Oct 2021

  I have used this module to overcome the problem. Might be helpful to you as well i guess?

• I installed pynput with pip, but VSCode doesnt recognize it.
  1 project | /r/vscode | 24 Sep 2021

  First thing you should do when you encounter these types of issues is go to the github repo and look at the issues other users have put up. I think this one may be relevant.

• cx_Freeze: Program crashes as soon as it starts. Need help to fix please.
  1 project | /r/learnpython | 18 Mar 2021

  I don't know anything about cx_Freeze but the error you are getting is from pynput in this backend function: https://github.com/moses-palmer/pynput/blob/master/lib/pynput/_util/__init__.py#L49

• Wayland python key listener (pynput alternative?)
  3 projects | /r/swaywm | 2 Mar 2021

  According to https://github.com/moses-palmer/pynput/issues/184

• check time pressed in a loop
  1 project | /r/learnpython | 28 Jan 2021

  There is not basic method. Those libraries are making OS-specific system calls that can detect keypress events. Because that's very technical it's basically unpractical to try to implement this yourself, you would normally 'just' pick a library like pygame, keyboard, pynput. If you really want to study this you could look at such a library's source code, like for pynput's code for windows see here.
