# KeyCode Constants

[](#contributing)
[](LICENSE)
A minimal JavaScript package with key code constants.
## Installation
```bash
# Using npm
$ npm install keycode-js --save
# Using yarn
$ yarn add keycode-js
# Using bower
$ bower install keycode-js --save
```
## Usage
Import the package using `require()` or ES / TypeScript `import` statement:
```js
// CommonJS
const KeyCode = require('keycode-js');
// ES2015+
import * as KeyCode from 'keycode-js';
// TypeScript
import * as KeyCode from 'keycode-js';
// Import individual constants
import { KEY_RETURN } from 'keycode-js';
```
Or, using `` tag:
```html
<script src="https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/keycode.min.js">
```
Finally:
```js
window.addEventListener('keyup', function(e) {
// You may do one of these checks.
// Check the code value.
if (e.code === KeyCode.CODE_RETURN) {
console.log('It was the Return key.');
return;
}
// OR, check the keyCode value.
if (e.keyCode === KeyCode.KEY_RETURN) {
console.log('It was the Return key.');
return;
}
// OR, check the key value.
if (e.key === KeyCode.VALUE_RETURN) {
console.log('It was the Return key.');
return;
}
console.log('It was any other key.');
});
```
## Usage with Deno
```ts
// Import all constants
import * as KeyCode from 'https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts';
// Import individual constants
import { KEY_ENTER } from 'https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts';
console.assert(KeyCode.KEY_ENTER === KEY_ENTER);
```
