A React keybinding component
npm install react-keybinding-componentreact-keybinding-component is a component that will help you set up keybindings in your app. For the moment, only simple key events are supported (one key only, keyup, keydown). It's just a less dirty way of using key events instead of having care of them with componentDidMount() in multiple components.
Import it in your project:
`` javascript`
import KeyBinding from 'react-keybinding-component';
Get the eventKey keyCode and log it
` JSX`
Get the eventKey keyCode and log it on keyUp on the window element` JSX`
Have a look at options.
All properties except onKey are optional.
