The joystick connection status is accessible using the datastore value:

bool joystick_online = ctl.datastore().get<bool>("Joystick::connected");

You can access the value of an input using the function loaded in the datastore

  auto & buttonFunc = ctl.datastore().get<std::function<bool(joystickButtonInputs button)>>("Joystick::Button");
  
  //Button event is a boolean which is true if the state of the button change
  auto & buttonEventFunc = ctl.datastore().get<std::function<bool(joystickButtonInputs button)>>("Joystick::ButtonEvent");

  auto & triggerFunc = ctl.datastore().get<std::function<double(joystickAnalogicInputs)>>("Joystick::Trigger");

  auto & stickFunc = ctl.datastore().get<std::function<Eigen::Vector2d(joystickAnalogicInputs)>>("Joystick::Stick");

You can refer to joystick_inputs.h to get the available buttons
