Creating a custom Keyboard Interrupt key in Python-CodePudding

I posted this question a few days ago but I did not get an exact answer all I got is some unexplained code from the user, Jimmy Fraiture

Here is the code that he provided:

from pynput.keyboard import Listener

def on_press(key):
    # check that it is the key you want and exit your script for example



with Listener(on_press=on_press) as listener:
    listener.join()

# do your stuff here
while True:
    pass

I got the code but I did not know how to use it like if I had a while loop how to I set up my space key to break this loop or to be the Keyboard Interrupt key please someone explain the code or provide an answer I would be very grateful

CodePudding user response：

is this what you are looking for?

import keyboard  # using module keyboard
from pynput.keyboard import Listener
    
    
def on_press(key):
    if keyboard.is_pressed("s"):  # if key 's' is pressed
        exit()
        


with Listener(on_press=on_press) as listener:
    listener.join()

to use while loop, you should remove the listener

import keyboard  # using module keyboard
from pynput.keyboard import Listener


while True:
    if keyboard.is_pressed("s"):  # if key 's' is pressed
        exit()
