It also offers the flexibility to customize keypress sounds to your liking. You can use the built-in sound presets to create an enjoyable typing experience, whether you're crafting emails or up to some prank on your boss. ✨ Inspiration: ["Taking notes in class with my typewriter"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bs5TEuZPQl8) Now you can recreate this moment without the actual need for a physical typewriter! <details> <summary>Table of Contents</summary> <!-- vim-markdown-toc GFM --> - [Getting Started](#getting-started) - [Supported Platforms](#supported-platforms) - [Installation](#installation) - [Cargo](#cargo) - [Arch Linux](#arch-linux) - [Alpine Linux](#alpine-linux) - [MacPorts](#macports) - [Binary releases](#binary-releases) - [Build from source](#build-from-source) - [Usage](#usage) - [Configuration](#configuration) - [Adding custom presets](#adding-custom-presets) - [Sound Variation](#sound-variation) - [Similar Projects](#similar-projects) - [MacOS permissions](#macos-permissions) - [Acknowledgements](#acknowledgements) - [Donations](#donations) - [Contributing](#contributing) - [License](#license) - [Copyright](#copyright) <!-- vim-markdown-toc --> </details> ## Getting Started Simply run `daktilo` for the classic typewriter effect. There are also different presets available: | Preset Name | Description | | ----------- | ----------------------------------------------- | | `default` | the classic typewriter effect | | `basic` | an alternative and more basic typewriter effect | | `musicbox` | plays random notes like a music box | | `ducktilo` | quack quack 🦆 | | `drumkit` | dum, tss, cha! 🥁 | | `spark` | high voltage high current typing experience ⚡ | To list the presets: ```sh daktilo --list-presets ``` To use a preset: ```sh daktilo --preset musicbox ``` You can also use multiple presets at the same time: ```sh # orchestra daktilo -p default -p musicbox -p drumkit ``` To use a different output device: ```sh daktilo --device pipewire ``` Also, you can use `--list-devices` to list the available output devices. To variate the sounds and have a more realistic typewriter experience: ```sh daktilo --variate-tempo 0.9,0.4 --variate-volume 0.1,0.5 ``` <details> <summary>Spoiler warning</summary> There are easter eggs. If that is something you do not like you can disable them either via the config file option `no_surprises = true` or using the command-line flag: ```sh daktilo --no-surprises ``` </details> ## Supported Platforms - [x] Linux - [x] X11 - [ ] Wayland[\*](https://github.com/Narsil/rdev#linux) - [x] Windows - [x] MacOS ## Installation [](https://repology.org/project/daktilo/versions) ### Cargo **daktilo** can be installed from [crates.io](https://crates.io/crates/daktilo) using [`cargo`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/) if [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) is installed. ```sh cargo install daktilo ``` The minimum supported Rust version is `1.70.0`.

It can be installed via [apk](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Alpine_Package_Keeper) after enabling the [testing repository](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Repositories). ```sh apk add daktilo ``` ### MacPorts On macOS, **daktilo** can be installed via [MacPorts](https://www.macports.org/): ```sh sudo port install daktilo ``` More info [here](https://ports.macports.org/port/daktilo/). ### Binary releases See the available binaries for different targets from the [releases page](https://github.com/orhun/daktilo/releases). ### Build from source 1. Clone the repository. ```sh git clone https://github.com/orhun/daktilo && cd daktilo/ ``` 2. Build. ```sh CARGO_TARGET_DIR=target cargo build --release ``` Binary will be located at `target/release/daktilo`. ## Usage ```sh daktilo [OPTIONS] ``` **Options**: ```sh -v, --verbose Enables verbose logging [env: VERBOSE=] -p, --preset [<PRESET>...] Sets the name of the sound preset to use [env: PRESET=] -l, --list-presets Lists the available presets --list-devices Lists the available output devices -d, --device <DEVICE> Sets the device for playback [env: DAKTILO_DEVICE=] -c, --config <PATH> Sets the configuration file [env: DAKTILO_CONFIG=] -i, --init Writes the default configuration file --variate-volume <PERCENT_UP[,PERCENT_DOWN]> Variate volume +/- in percent [env: DAKTILO_VOLUME=] --variate-tempo <PERCENT_UP[,PERCENT_DOWN]> Variate tempo +/- in percent [env: DAKTILO_TEMPO=] -h, --help Print help (see more with '--help') -V, --version Print version ``` ## Configuration **daktilo** can be configured with a configuration file using the [TOML](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOML) format. The path of the configuration file can be specified via `--config` argument or `DAKTILO_CONFIG` environment variable. It can also be placed in one of the following global locations: - `<config_dir>` `/` `daktilo.toml` - `<config_dir>` `/` `daktilo/daktilo.toml` - `<config_dir>` `/` `daktilo/config` `<config_dir>` depends on the platform as shown in the following table: | Platform | Value | Example | | -------- | ------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | | Linux | `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` or `$HOME`/.config | /home/orhun/.config | | macOS | `$HOME`/Library/Application Support | /Users/Orhun/Library/Application Support | | Windows | `{FOLDERID_RoamingAppData}` | C:\Users\Orhun\AppData\Roaming | See [daktilo.toml](config/daktilo.toml) for the default configuration options. You can also create the default configuration file in the current directory with `--init` flag: ```sh daktilo --init ``` ### Adding custom presets The configuration file consists of an array of `sound_preset` entries. To define an array in TOML, you can create different sections as follows: ```toml [[sound_preset]] name = "custom" key_config = [] [[sound_preset]] name = "another_custom" key_config = [] disabled_keys = [] variation = { volume: [0.1, 0.1], tempo: [0.05, 0.05] } ``` As shown above, `sound_preset` consists of 2 entries: - `name`: The name of the preset. It will be used in conjunction with `--preset` flag. e.g. `--preset custom` - `key_config`: An array of key press/release events for assigning audio files to the specified keys. It can also be used to control the volume etc. - `disabled_keys`: An array of keys that will not be used for playback. - `variation`: Variate the sound on each event for `key_config`s that do not specify variations[\*](#sound-variation) <details> <summary>Click for the <a href="https://docs.rs/rdev/latest/rdev/enum.Key.html">list of available keys</a>.</summary> `Alt`, `AltGr`, `Backspace`, `CapsLock`, `ControlLeft`, `ControlRight`, `Delete`, `DownArrow`, `End`, `Escape`, `F1`, `F10`, `F11`, `F12`, `F2`, `F3`, `F4`, `F5`, `F6`, `F7`, `F8`, `F9`, `Home`, `LeftArrow`, `MetaLeft`, `MetaRight`, `PageDown`, `PageUp`, `Return`, `RightArrow`, `ShiftLeft`, `ShiftRight`, `Space`, `Tab`, `UpArrow`, `PrintScreen`, `ScrollLock`, `Pause`, `NumLock`, `BackQuote`, `Num1`, `Num2`, `Num3`, `Num4`, `Num5`, `Num6`, `Num7`, `Num8`, `Num9`, `Num0`, `Minus`, `Equal`, `KeyQ`, `KeyW`, `KeyE`, `KeyR`, `KeyT`, `KeyY`, `KeyU`, `KeyI`, `KeyO`, `KeyP`, `LeftBracket`, `RightBracket`, `KeyA`, `KeyS`, `KeyD`, `KeyF`, `KeyG`, `KeyH`, `KeyJ`, `KeyK`, `KeyL`, `SemiColon`, `Quote`, `BackSlash`, `IntlBackslash`, `KeyZ`, `KeyX`, `KeyC`, `KeyV`, `KeyB`, `KeyN`, `KeyM`, `Comma`, `Dot`, `Slash`, `Insert`, `KpReturn`, `KpMinus`, `KpPlus`, `KpMultiply`, `KpDivide`, `Kp0`, `Kp1`, `Kp2`, `Kp3`, `Kp4`, `Kp5`, `Kp6`, `Kp7`, `Kp8`, `Kp9`, `KpDelete`, `Function`, `Unknown` </details> As an example, here is how you can configure `key_config`: ```toml key_config = [ { event = "press", keys = "Return", files = [{ path = "ding.mp3", volume = 1.0 }] }, ] ``` - `event`: "press" or "release" - `keys`: A regular expression (regex) for matching the keys. - `files`: An array of files. - `path`: The absolute path of the file. If the file is embedded in the binary (i.e. if it is inside `sounds/` directory) then it is the name of the file without full path. - `volume`: The volume of the sound. The value 1.0 is the "normal" volume (unfiltered input). Any value other than 1.0 will multiply each sample by this value. - `variation`: Variate the sound on each `event`[\*](#sound-variation) If you have defined multiple files for a key event, you can also specify a strategy for how to play them: ```toml key_config = [ { event = "press", keys = ".*", files = [{ path = "1.mp3" }, { path = "2.mp3" }], strategy = "random" }, ] ``` Currently supported strategies are: - `strategy = "random"`: pick a random file from the list and play it. - `strategy = "sequential"`: play the files sequentially. Here is how you can combine everything together: ```toml [[sound_preset]] # Custom sound preset named "custom" name = "custom" # Key configurations for various events key_config = [ # When a key starting with "Key" is pressed, play 1.mp3, 2.mp3, and 3.mp3 sequentially { event = "press", keys = "Key*", files = [ { path = "1.mp3" }, { path = "2.mp3" }, { path = "3.mp3" }, ], strategy = "sequential" }, # When a key starting with "Key" is released, play 4.mp3 { event = "release", keys = "Key*", files = [ { path = "4.mp3" }, ] }, # When a key starting with "Num" is pressed, play num.mp3 at a very high volume (10.0) { event = "press", keys = "Num*", files = [ { path = "num.mp3", volume = 10.0 }, ] }, # When any key is pressed, play a random sound from cat.mp3, dog.mp3, or bird.mp3 { event = "press", keys = ".*", files = [ { path = "cat.mp3" }, { path = "dog.mp3" }, { path = "bird.mp3" }, ], strategy = "random", variation = { volume: [0.1, 0.1], tempo: [0.05, 0.05] } }, ] # Disabled keys that won't trigger any sound events disabled_keys = ["CapsLock", "NumLock"] ``` ### Sound Variation To make the keyboard sounds more varied it is possible to variate both volume and playback speed (the later also varies the pitch). Values are in percent, where the first value determines the maximum increase and the second the maximum decrease. The actual value is determined randomly on each keypress. - If command line arguments or environment variables are set configurations made in the presets are overridden. - Values need to be separated by a ",". - If only one value is supplied it is used for both increase and decrease - If a `key_config` is set the preset values are overridden. - The configuration on a preset applies to all `key_config`'s that do not have any values set. ## Similar Projects - [`bucklespring`](https://github.com/zevv/bucklespring): Nostalgia bucklespring keyboard sound - [`selectric-mode`](https://github.com/rbanffy/selectric-mode): Make your Emacs sound like a proper typewriter ## MacOS permissions On MacOS, you need to give some permissions to the terminal where you run **daktilo**. The first time you run **daktilo**, you will probably see this popup:  If you see it, click on "Open System Settings", otherwise open "System Settings" manually and go to "Privacy and Security". From here, enable "Input Monitoring" for your terminal application:  ## Acknowledgements Huge thanks to [H.
