Translate Keyboard Layout With Python

I'm using a digispark arduino-compatible device to emulate a keyboard with an US layout (it uses DigiKeyboard.h as library to do so). Now,it just takes as input an integer which r

Solution 1:

In short: it is not possible.

The library doesn't support that, let me elaborate a little further:

I've generated a "lookup table" (using the hak5 files mentioned in the question) which allowed me to check which key + modifiers to use to represent a given character in a given layout (quite of a good piece of software actually); it was a big let down for me to find out that the library supported the "shift" modifiers only (while in other layouts alt-gr is needed). The "keystroke" is coded in the following way: 7-bits are used to represent the ASCII code of the character (obviously it only supports the 7-bit ASCII characters in the US keyboard), while the most significant bit represent whether or not the modifier is used.

TL;DR: DigiKeyboard supports one modifiers only, making it good for US layout (or similar) only.

A quick and dirty workaround it to use this tool here to translate a rubbery ducky script in a digispark one using the tools the hak5 team wrote.
