Hi,

First of all thanks for the code, you are helping a lot a developers here.
I am using macos Catalina (10.15.4) and i am facing an issue i.e "Can't open HID!". I am running it on my imac with keypad and trackpad.

Please help me to resolve this.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi, thank you so much for making this!
I learned a lot by going through your code!

I was able to get it to compile after upgrading to Swift 4 and Xcode 9.0 beta.

I use Karabiner-Element to remap the keys on my keyboard.

When Karabiner is turned on, the Keylogger is writing logs to Data/Apps and Data/Devices but nothing in Data/Keys.

Here is the the output of Data/Devices

cat Data/Devices/19-8-2017/Time\ Stamps

I will try to debug this on my own time as soon as possible. If you have any idea on top of your head about where the problem may lie, any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks again for this amazing program!

Is it possible to add combinations of keystrokes such as [CMD+(KEY)] or [SHIFT+(KEY)]

On long run, the files get accumulated and the directory size becomes very large.

So can you add the functionality of compressing the old files and deleting the very old files automatically?

Like compress the files which are 2 days old and delete the files which are 15 days old.

Is it possible?

I get the following error when I try and build your project:

“Swift Language Version” (SWIFT_VERSION) is required to be configured correctly for targets which use Swift. Use the [Edit > Convert > To Current Swift Syntax…] menu to choose a Swift version or use the Build Settings editor to configure the build setting directly.

I assume it is Swift 4 only.

I have read the README.md about EnableSecureEventInput. But is there any way to log the passwords? I really need that.

Please Help me🙏🏻

Hi,

Would it be possible to add the functionality to temporary enable/disable (self-disable) password log after certain given time?.

I have been having a look at your code but my Swift level is not the best.

Thanks.

Long pressed keys get logged only once (even though they might be getting typed multiple times if key repeat is enabled).

Is it possible to get the exact count in the logs?

It might not be a big change because for special keys (shift, ctrl, option) I think we have something similar to the keyPress and keyRelease callbacks?

In the latter, you wouldn't need USB permission when running in sandbox mode.

@SkrewEverything
First of all, thanks a lot for your great project.

I want to control the keyboard listening events with a switch Button. So I made a UI interface wrap it (use Xcode). I copy your codes into my project and create a view controller. Then I add a action for a checkbox Button :

 @IBAction func buttonFieldChecked(_ sender: NSButton) {
        let state = sender.state
        if state == .on {
            _ = Keylogger()  // if checked, listen the keyboard pressing
        } else {
            //...
        }
    }

But when I run and checked button, the UI application hanging and the mouse pointer loading forever.

I guess the reason in "Keylogger.swift":

       /* Scheduling the loop */
        scheduleHIDLoop()
       
        /* Running in Loop */
        RunLoop.current.run()

But I don't know how to fix it. Could you give me some advice? Thank you very much! : )

Hello I just would like to ask if its possible to add an AZERTY version of this keylogger ? And why not detect automaticatly the language and choose between AZERTY and QWERTY keyboard ? Thank you

I have tested this program, it runs well as expected for a while.
But after several hours, suddenly events regarding keyboard had cut off.
Other events are still going well.

I am using macOS 10.12.6 on MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2016, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports)

Does anyone haven't experienced similar issues?

Context: I use an external monitor

What: The data directory was logging the keypresses in an incorrect file (i.e. under an incorrect Application).

Reason/ Additional Context: The keypresses were being logged to the active window on the first/primary screen but I was typing in the application active in the external/secondary screen.

Hi

I just tried to run it on sierra, and got : Can't open HID!

Any idea what it might be?

would be neat if this could be used to track your typing skills:

• cpm counter for a-z, 0-9 and symbols separately
• wpm counter based on spacebar
• accuracy based on backspace use

I just want to say thank you for this great project which helped me a lot in my project. I submitted my project for a contest and I won the contest and got some money.

I just want to donate the money to you for creating such great project.

So, how can I donate to you?
