Can't found a way to use QKeyEvent

[amaillo]

Hello, i've trying to use QKeyEvent with QTextEdit but can't found a way to even make a variable with QKeyEvent propierties.

The related code:

const {
 QKeyEvent
} = require("@nodegui/nodegui");
const keyPressEvent = new QKeyEvent();

The error:

C:\Users\amail\Desktop\project\node_modules\@nodegui\nodegui\dist\lib\QtGui\QEvent\QKeyEvent.js:11
        super(new addon_1.default.QKeyEvent(event));
              ^

Error: Error in native callback
    at new QKeyEvent (C:\Users\amail\Desktop\project\node_modules\@nodegui\nodegui\dist\lib\QtGui\QEvent\QKeyEvent.js:11:15)
    at Object.<anonymous> (C:\Users\amail\Desktop\project\index.js:172:23)

    at Function.executeUserEntryPoint [as runMain] (node:internal/modules/run_main:81:12)
    at node:internal/main/run_main_module:23:47

Expected behavior
No error in console log.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 11
• NodeGUI version: v0.58.0-rc4

Additional context
I already read the documentation but since has not examples don't help me much.

What do you need a QKeyEvent for? They are usually created by Qt and sent to your application.

I wanted to maintain all the text that the user type in a QTextEdit box to 16 characters max-length per line. Currently i did a QPushButton for that purpose a moment ago and is working so i guess that don't need the QKeyEvent anymore. But i still wonder what was causing the issue.

JS QKeyEvent in NodeGui is built to wrap a C++ QKeyEvent instance. It doesn't support making a brand new QKeyEvent C++ instance from the application side.

I'm not sure how exactly QKeyEvent fits into the problem you want to solve. My approach would be to listen for some changed event and trim any long lines.
