Keypress detection

Question

I\'ve been trying to get keypresses to be detected in a Python program. I want to find a way to do this without using Tkinter, curses, or raw_input

Answer 1

Python has a keyboard module with many features. Install it, perhaps with this command:

pip3 install keyboard

Then use it in code like:

import keyboard #Using module keyboard
while True:#making a loop
    try: #used try so that if user pressed other than the given key error will not be shown
        if keyboard.is_pressed('a'): #if key 'a' is pressed 
            print('You Pressed A Key!')
            break #finishing the loop
        else:
            pass
    except:
        break #if user pressed other than the given key the loop will break

You can set multiple Key Detection:

if keyboard.is_pressed('a') or keyboard.is_pressed('b') or keyboard.is_pressed('c'):
    #then do this
