createHotkeys

function createHotkeys(hotkeys, commonOptions?): void;

Defined in: createHotkeys.ts:66

SolidJS primitive for registering multiple keyboard hotkeys at once.

Options are merged in this order: HotkeysProvider defaults < commonOptions < per-definition options

Parameters

hotkeys

| CreateHotkeyDefinition[] | (() => CreateHotkeyDefinition[])

Array of hotkey definitions, or accessor returning them

commonOptions?

| CreateHotkeyOptions | (() => CreateHotkeyOptions)

Shared options applied to all hotkeys, or accessor

Returns

void

function Editor() {
  createHotkeys([
    { hotkey: 'Mod+S', callback: () => save() },
    { hotkey: 'Mod+Z', callback: () => undo() },
    { hotkey: 'Escape', callback: () => close() },
  ])
}
