RawHotkey
ts
type RawHotkey =
| object & RawModifiers
| object & RawModifiers;Defined in: hotkey.types.ts:198
A raw hotkey object for programmatic registration.
Like ParsedHotkey but without modifiers (derived from booleans) and with optional modifier booleans (default to false when omitted). Use with HotkeyManager.register() and useHotkey() when you prefer object form over a string.
The mod modifier is platform-adaptive: Command on macOS, Control on Windows/Linux. Pass platform when converting to ParsedHotkey (e.g., via options.platform).
Example#
ts
useHotkey({ key: 'S', mod: true }, handler) // Mod+S (cross-platform)
useHotkey({ key: 'S', ctrl: true }, handler) // Control+S
useHotkey({ key: 'Escape' }, handler) // Escape (no modifiers)
useHotkey({ key: 'A', shift: true, meta: true }, handler) // Shift+Meta+A
useHotkey({ key: 'S', mod: true, shift: true }, handler) // Mod+Shift+S
useHotkey({ code: 'KeyW', mod: true }, handler) // Physical Mod+KeyW
useHotkey({ code: 'NumpadAdd', mod: true }, handler) // Physical numpad plus
