Crate kbd_iced 

Iced key event conversions for kbd.

This crate converts iced’s keyboard events into kbd’s unified types so that GUI key events (from iced) and global hotkey events (from kbd-global) can feed into the same Dispatcher. This is useful in iced apps that want both in-window shortcuts and system-wide hotkeys handled through a single hotkey registry.

iced defines its own W3C-derived key types: key::Code for physical key positions and key::Physical wrapping Code with an unidentified fallback. iced also has a logical key type for character/named key identity, but this crate only converts physical keys — they are layout-independent and match kbd’s model.

Extension traits

• IcedKeyExt — converts an iced key::Code or key::Physical to a kbd::key::Key.
• IcedModifiersExt — converts iced Modifiers to a Vec<Modifier>.
• IcedEventExt — converts an iced keyboard Event to a kbd::hotkey::Hotkey.

Usage

use iced_core::keyboard::{key::Code, Modifiers};
use kbd::prelude::*;
use kbd_iced::{IcedKeyExt, IcedModifiersExt};

// Code conversion
let key = Code::KeyA.to_key();
assert_eq!(key, Some(Key::A));

// Modifier conversion
let mods = Modifiers::CTRL.to_modifiers();
assert_eq!(mods, vec![Modifier::Ctrl]);
