@rogerwang i am kinda need this feature so much. I have a little C/C++ basics, can you or anyone please help pointing me out where to start ? so i can implement this myself or maybe do a PR.
Thanks
Hi, are there any alternatives or workarounds to do this? I really need this feature 😞
As far as I see this can be done with chrome.debugger
API. See a sample here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/46634681/180197
Using chrome.debugger
didn't help.
Here's what I tried:
chrome.debugger.getTargets(function (targets) {
targets.forEach(function (target, i) {
if (target.type === 'app' || target.type === 'webview') {
var debugee = { targetId: target.id }
chrome.debugger.attach(debugee, '1.2', function () {
chrome.debugger.sendCommand(debugee, 'Input.dispatchKeyEvent', {
'type': 'keyDown',
'key': 'a',
'code': 'a',
'keyCode': 'a',
// 'nativeVirtualKeyCode': null,
// 'windowsVirtualKeyCode': null
}, function () {
chrome.debugger.sendCommand(debugee, 'Input.dispatchKeyEvent', {
'type': 'keyUp',
'key': 'a',
'code': 'a',
'keyCode': 'a',
// 'nativeVirtualKeyCode': null,
// 'windowsVirtualKeyCode': null
}, function () {
chrome.debugger.detach(debugee)
})
})
})
}
})
})
Focused input element (in webview) still doesn't recieve any keyboard keys.
@Christywl please verify with the sample. It could be a bug.
Using above codes, I add a input/webview tag in index.html with nwjs-sdk-v0.29.3, don't see the keyboard keys operations.
@Christywl could you please upload the sample you are using?
Please download 5898.zip. I'm not sure if my sample is correct for this feature.
How about triggering the key event when focusing on input or clicking a button and waiting 2 seconds etc. So the input is focused?
NW: v0.22.1-sdk OS: WIN 7 SP1 64
I'm currently on scriptable browser project based on NW which is similar to NightmareJS for Electron. One of my issue is using input event to automate keyboard/mouse event. It's easy thing to do in Electron since there is a specific API available for this https://electron.atom.io/docs/api/web-contents/#contentssendinputeventevent So the input event is triggered natively Offcourse it can be done by preloading a javascript that emulate this behavior, but it would be great if NW has this feature too.
Thanks.
