# This is a fork of the original device_query It adds the distinction between LMeta and RMeta keys for Linux and Win. # device_query [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/ostrosco/device_query.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/ostrosco/device_query) A simple library to query mouse and keyboard inputs on demand without a window. Will work in Windows, Linux on X11, and macOS. ```Rust use device_query::{DeviceQuery, DeviceState, MouseState, Keycode}; let device_state = DeviceState::new(); let mouse: MouseState = device_state.get_mouse(); println!("Current Mouse Coordinates: {:?}", mouse.coords); let keys: Vec = device_state.get_keys(); println!("Is A pressed? {}", keys.contains(Keycode::A)); ``` # Dependencies Windows shouldn't require any special software to be installed for `device_query` to work properly. On Linux, the X11 development libraries are required for `device_query` to query state from the OS. On Ubuntu/Debian: ``` sudo apt install libx11-dev ``` On Fedora/RHEL/CentOS: ``` sudo dnf install xorg-x11-server-devel ``` On newer versions of MacOS, you may run into issues where you only see meta keys such as shift, backspace, et cetera. This is due to a permission issue. To work around this: * open the MacOS system preferences * go to Security -> Privacy * scroll down to Accessibility and unlock it * add the app that is using `device_query` (such as your terminal) to the list
