Is it possible to force a bonded key event to occur?

[MinCrohn]

Is there a way to forcibly trigger key events registered with bindkey or bindkeyCombo?

I want the user to act as if they entered a key event when clicking on a button component or the like.

Is is necessary to trigger the behavior through keystrokes?

Without knowing more about your use case I would suggest calling the logic you want triggered directly without going through keystrokes.

import { bindKeyCombo } from '@rwh/keystrokes'

function doThing() {
  // do thing here
}

buttonEl.addEventListener('click', doThing)
bindKeyCombo('a + b', doThing)

If you need to interact with the event objects from either of these you could use a few wrapper functions.

import { bindKeyCombo } from '@rwh/keystrokes'

function doThing() {
  // do thing here
}

function handleClick(e) {
  // do something with click event
  doThing()
}

function handleKeyCombo(e) {
  // do something with keystrokes key combo press event
  doThing()
}

buttonEl.addEventListener('click', handleClick)
bindKeyCombo('a + b', doThing)

Using keystrokes to dispatch the call would just be extra overhead given that you should just be able to call your function.

Would this resolve your problem?
If not can you elaborate on your use case a bit more?
