Bindings for libxkbregistry using cffi

Project description

Python bindings for libxkbregistry using cffi.

libxkbregistry is part of libxkbcommon but is commonly packaged separately in distributions.

Example usage:

>>> from xkbregistry import rxkb
>>> ctx = rxkb.Context()
>>> ctx.models["pc101"].description
'Generic 101-key PC'
>>> ctx.layouts["us"]
rxkb.Layout('us')
>>> ctx.layouts["us"].description
'English (US)'
>>> ctx.layouts["us(intl)"].description
'English (US, intl., with dead keys)'
>>> ctx.option_groups[0].description
'Switching to another layout'

Version numbering

From release 1.0 onwards, the version numbering of this package will relate to releases of libxkbcommon as follows:

If the Python package version is major.minor[.patch] then it requires at least release major.minor.0 of libxkbcommon and/or libxkbregistry to build and run, and should work with any subsequent release. The patch version of the Python package is unrelated to the patch version of libxkbcommon.
