slint-evdev-input
Reads touch input events from a linux evdev device and converts them to slint WindowEvent.
Based on the evdev crate.
Running tests
The tests for this crate require use of /dev/uinput to create virtual devices, and then access to
the created device. Typically, this requires root priveledges, or udev rules to grant access to a
group.
For example, you can add your user to the "input" group, and add the following udev rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/99-input.rules:
KERNEL=="uinput", GROUP="input", MODE:="0660"
KERNEL=="event*", GROUP="input", MODE:="0660"
