gamepads

Gamepad input library in Rust.

Add the dependency as:

[dependencies]
gamepads = "0.1.1"

See the crate documentation and the hello-gamepads example for documentation and sample code.

What it is

• On desktop this is an abstraction on top of gilrs.
• On web this is a direct (not using wasm-bindgen) implementation on top of the Gamepad API exposed by browsers.

On web, as a macroquad plugin

For non-web targets, nothing special needs to be done to use this library with macroquad.

For a web build to work properly, a small javascript plug-in needs to be registered in the page embedding the built wasm file:

<script src="https://not-fl3.github.io/miniquad-samples/mq_js_bundle.js"></script>
<script src="https://fornwall.github.io/gamepads/macroquad-gamepads-0.1.js"></script>
<script>
  load("your-wasm-file.wasm");
</script>

See the hello-gamepads example.
