KeyboardLayoutMap: entries() method
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The entries()
method of the KeyboardLayoutMap
interface returns a new Iterator object that contains the key/value pairs, in the same order as that provided by a for...in
loop (the difference being that a for-in
loop enumerates properties in the prototype chain as well).
The method is otherwise the same as Map.prototype.entries()
.
Value
A new Iterator object.
Examples
The following example iterates every location- or layout-specific string and its associated keyboard code on an English QWERTY keyboard.
js
navigator.keyboard.getLayoutMap().then((keyboardLayoutMap) => {
for (const [code, key] of keyboardLayoutMap.entries()) {
console.log(`${code} keyboard code represents ${key} key`);
}
});
