Listen for some hotkeys on form fields

[iseth]

How doees github listen for all command palette hotkeys meta+k on all inputs across github with this plugin?

In cases where we need a global shortcut that will work in all inputs, we use manual event listeners. The code might look a bit like:

import {eventToHotkeyString} from '@github/hotkey'
const GLOBAL_HOTKEY = 'Cmd+K'

document.addEventListener('keydown', (event) => {
  let hotkeyString = eventToHotkeyString(event)
  if (!hotkeyString) return
  if (hotkeyString !== GLOBAL_HOTKEY) return

  runGlobalHotkeyCommand()
})
