HotKeys.js is an input capture library with some very special features, it is easy to pick up and use, has a reasonable footprint (~3kb) (gzipped: 1.73kb), and has no dependencies. It should not interfere with any JavaScript libraries or frameworks. Official document demo preview. More examples.

$ npm install hotkeys-js --saveimport hotkeys from 'hotkeys-js';
hotkeys('f5', function(event, handler){
// Prevent the default refresh event under WINDOWS system
event.preventDefault()
alert('you pressed F5!')
});Or manually download and link hotkeys.js in your HTML, It can also be downloaded via UNPKG:
CDN: UNPKG | jsDelivr | Githack | Statically | bundle.run
<script src="https://unpkg.com/hotkeys-js/dist/hotkeys.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
hotkeys('ctrl+a,ctrl+b,r,f', function (event, handler){
switch (handler.key) {
case 'ctrl+a': alert('you pressed ctrl+a!');
break;
case 'ctrl+b': alert('you pressed ctrl+b!');
break;
case 'r': alert('you pressed r!');
break;
case 'f': alert('you pressed f!');
break;
default: alert(event);
}
});
</script>react-hotkeys is the React component that listen to keydown and keyup keyboard events, defining and dispatching keyboard shortcuts. Detailed use method please see its documentation react-hotkeys.
react-hotkeys-hook - React hook for using keyboard shortcuts in components. Make sure that you have at least version 16.8 of react and react-dom installed, or otherwise hooks won't work for you.
Hotkeys.js has been tested and should work in.

ChromeHotKeys understands the following modifiers: ⇧, shift, option, ⌥, alt, ctrl, control, command, and ⌘.
The following special keys can be used for shortcuts: backspace, tab, clear, enter, return, esc, escape, space, up, down, left, right, home, end, pageup, pagedown, del, delete and f1 through f19.
⌘ Command()
⌃ Control
⌥ Option(alt)
⇧ Shift
⇪ Caps Lock(Capital)
fn Does not support fn
↩︎ return/Enter space
One global method is exposed, key which defines shortcuts when called directly.
hotkeys([keys:<String>], [option:[string|object|function]], [callback:<function>])
hotkeys('f5', function(event, handler) {
// Prevent the default refresh event under WINDOWS system
event.preventDefault();
alert('you pressed F5!');
});
// Returning false stops the event and prevents default browser events
// Mac OS system defines `command + r` as a refresh shortcut
hotkeys('ctrl+r, command+r', function() {
alert('stopped reload!');
return false;
});
// Single key
hotkeys('a', function(event,handler){
//event.srcElement: input
//event.target: input
if(event.target === "input"){
alert('you pressed a!')
}
alert('you pressed a!')
});
// Key Combination
hotkeys('ctrl+a,ctrl+b,r,f', function (event, handler){
switch (handler.key) {
case 'ctrl+a': alert('you pressed ctrl+a!');
break;
case 'ctrl+b': alert('you pressed ctrl+b!');
break;
case 'r': alert('you pressed r!');

});Use the hotkeys.setScope method to set scope. There can only be one active scope besides 'all'. By default 'all' is always active.
// Define shortcuts with a scope
hotkeys('ctrl+o, ctrl+alt+enter', 'issues', function(){
console.log('do something');
});
hotkeys('o, enter', 'files', function(){
console.log('do something else');
});
// Set the scope (only 'all' and 'issues' shortcuts will be honored)
hotkeys.setScope('issues'); // default scope is 'all'Use the hotkeys.getScope method to get scope.
hotkeys.getScope();Use the hotkeys.deleteScope method to delete a scope. This will also remove all associated hotkeys with it.
hotkeys.deleteScope('issues');Similar to defining shortcuts, they can be unbound using hotkeys.unbind.
// unbind 'a' handler
hotkeys.unbind('a');
// Unbind a hotkeys only for a single scope
// If no scope is specified it defaults to the current scope (hotkeys.getScope())
hotkeys.unbind('o, enter', 'issues');
hotkeys.unbind('o, enter', 'files');Unbind events through functions.
function example() {
hotkeys('a', example);
hotkeys.unbind('a', example);
hotkeys('a', 'issues', example);
hotkeys.unbind('a', 'issues', example);
}For example, hotkeys.isPressed(77) is true if the M key is currently pressed.
hotkeys('a', function() {
console.log(hotkeys.isPressed('a')); //=> true
console.log(hotkeys.isPressed('A')); //=> true
console.log(hotkeys.isPressed(65)); //=> true
});key down and key up both perform callback events.
hotkeys('ctrl+a,alt+a+s', {keyup: true}, function(event, handler) {
if (event.type === 'keydown') {
console.log('keydown:', event.type, handler, handler.key);
}
if (event.type === 'keyup') {
console.log('keyup:', event.type, handler, handler.key);
}
});Returns an array of key codes currently pressed.
hotkeys('command+ctrl+shift+a,f', function(){
console.log(hotkeys.getPressedKeyCodes()); //=> [17, 65] or [70]
})By default hotkeys are not enabled for INPUT SELECT TEXTAREA elements. Hotkeys.filter to return to the true shortcut keys set to play a role, false shortcut keys set up failure.
hotkeys.filter = function(event){
return true;
}
//How to add the filter to edit labels. <div contentEditable="true"></div>
//"contentEditable" Older browsers that do not support drops
hotkeys.filter = function(event) {
var tagName = (event.target || event.srcElement).tagName;
return !(tagName.isContentEditable || tagName == 'INPUT' || tagName == 'SELECT' || tagName == 'TEXTAREA');
}
hotkeys.filter = function(event){
var tagName = (event.target || event.srcElement).tagName;
hotkeys.setScope(/^(INPUT|TEXTAREA|SELECT)$/.test(tagName) ? 'input' : 'other');
return true;
}Relinquish HotKeys’s control of the hotkeys variable.
var k = hotkeys.noConflict();
k('a', function() {
console.log("do something")
});
