Crate winit_input_map

define actions and their key binds and then see if its pressing, pressed or released. You can get the mouse_pos, how much its moved (mouse_move), the scroll wheels movement (mouse_scroll), last other input (other_pressed used for rebinding things) and the text_typed (useful for typing). you can use anything that implements the Into<usize> trait as an action, but it’s recommended to use an action enum which derives ToUsize.

#[derive(ToUsize)]
enum Actions{
    Debug,
}
use winit::{event::*, keyboard::KeyCode, event_loop::*, window::Window};
use winit_input_map::*;
use Actions::*;

let mut input = input_map!(
    (Debug, KeyCode::Space),
);
 
let event_loop = EventLoop::new().unwrap();
event_loop.set_control_flow(ControlFlow::Poll);
let _window = Window::new(&event_loop).unwrap();

event_loop.run(|event, target|{
    input.update(&event);
    match &event {
        Event::WindowEvent { event: WindowEvent::CloseRequested, .. } => { target.exit() },
        Event::AboutToWait => {
            if input.pressed(Debug) { 
                println!("pressed {:?}", input.binds(Debug)) 
            }
            std::thread::sleep(std::time::Duration::from_millis(100));
            //put at end of loop because were done with inputs this frame.
            input.init();
        }
        _ => ()
    }
}).unwrap();

Macros

• input_map
  creates new input map with binds and actions.

Structs

• InputMap
  you can use anything that implements the Into<usize> trait as an action, but it’s recommended to use an action enum which derives ToUsize. input_map! macro reduces the boilerplate of this function

Enums

• Input
