send_key

send_key($key,$is_key=false); - this function is used to emulate events for entering a given key from the keyboard. It can work even if the program is minimized and in the system tray. (available from version 4.6.31)

the input Function accepts parameters:

  • $key – the key that will be emulated. (string)
  • $is_key – if false, interprets the key parameter as the key code and not the key itself.

    If you press Ctrl while this function is running (or emulate pressing via the set_ctrl_prefix commands), the sent key will be interpreted as a set of hot keys for human.

    After testing, the function returns the result of its work to the script :
  • true – successfully emulated the input of the specified key(boolean)
  • false – operation failed (boolean)

    PHP example:

    <?php $xhe_host = "127.0.0.1:7014";
     
    //connect the object to control the emulator, if not already connected
    if(!isset($path))
       $path = "../../../Templates/xweb_human_emulator.php";
    require($path);
     
    //Start
    echo "<hr> <font color = blue> keyboard->".basename(__FILE__)."</font> <hr>";
     
    //1
    echo "1.Let's go to Yandex:";
    echo $browser->navigate("http://ya.ru")."<br>";
     
    //2
    echo "2.Get zero input:";
    $obj = $input->get_by_number(0);
    echo $obj->inner_number."<br>";
     
    //3
    echo "3.Let's search for sr:";
    $keyboard->set_current_language("en");
    echo $obj->send_key("s", true)."";
    echo $obj->send_key(114, false)."";
    sleep(1);
    echo $obj->send_key(13, false);
     
    //end
    echo "<hr> <br>";
     
    //Quit
    $app->quit();
    ?>

    echo("1.Let's go to Yandex:")
    echo(browser.navigate("http://ya.ru"), "<br>")
     
    # 2
    echo("2.Get null input:")
    obj = input.get_by_number(0)
    echo(obj.inner_number, "<br>")
     
    # 3
