Sometimes, we want to simulate keydown with Python.

In this article, we’ll look at how to simulate keydown with Python.

How to simulate keydown with Python?

To simulate keydown with Python, we can use the pykeyboard library.

To install it, we run

pip install pykeyboard

Then we use it by writing

from pykeyboard import PyKeyboard
from time import sleep

keyboard = PyKeyboard()
keyboard.press_key('s')
sleep(5)
keyboard.release_key('s')

We call keyboard.press_key to press the s key.

And then we call release_key to release the s key.

Conclusion

To simulate keydown with Python, we can use the pykeyboard library.
