Feature: Allow app to receive `KeyEvent` from Accessibility Service

[fahimfoysal2]

Feature Request

• As Accessibility Service also provides key press events listener, can we please have this feature?
• Do you have any plan for it?
• If not, can you give me a guideline how can I implement it?

Thanks

Thanks for your quick reply.

Sorry, maybe I was not clear. By receiving key press events, I meant to receive callbacks via the following method

protected boolean onKeyEvent(KeyEvent event) { throw new RuntimeException("Stub!"); }

from AccessibilityService class for keys like volume up/volume down buttons.

I started the implementation by overriding the method in AccessibilityListener.java

@Override
protected boolean onKeyEvent(KeyEvent event) {
        HashMap<String, Object> eventData = new HashMap<>();
        eventData.put("keyCode", event.getKeyCode());
        eventData.put("action", event.getAction());
        // Add more properties as needed

        // Send the event data to Flutter

        return super.onKeyEvent(event);
}

If you can guide me, or suggest a flow for the implementation, I can try.
