Great news :) You can achieve custom keyboard shortcuts for google app script functions following next easy steps:

1. In the Google Sheets UI, select Tools > Macros > Record Macro.
2. Record any action. For instance, change the color background in A1. Press Save.
3. Save it with a random title and the preferred shortcut. You can change it later.
4. Select Tools > Script editor to open the script bound to the sheet in the Apps Script editor.
5. In the new editor tab, select View > Show Manifest File
6. TA - DÁ! :D Change the functionName value to the desired one ;)

Remember macro functions should take no arguments and return no values. More info at https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/sheets/macros#importing_functions_as_macros
