• Monitor events is useful for debugging - logs all input events and triggered rules in real time.

⚙️ Configuration

Wike uses a single config.yml file for configuration. Below is a compact example demonstrating the main features:

rules:
  - name: Caps Lock → F13 # "Rule UNK" by default
    enabled: true # true by default
    trigger: { kb: CAPITAL } # trigger when Caps Lock is pressed
    action: { kb: [F13] } # simulate pressing F13
    consume: true # prevent the original Caps Lock event (true by default)

  - name: Volume Scroll
    # define multiple bindings within a single rule
    bindings:
      - trigger: { m: WHEEL, state: UP } # mouse wheel up
        action: { kb: [VOLUME_UP] } # increase volume
      - trigger: { m: WHEEL, state: DOWN } # mouse wheel down
        action: { kb: [VOLUME_DOWN] } # decrease volume
    # screen region where the rule is active
    # negative values are relative to the right/bottom edges
    # defaults: x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: <screen width>, y2: <screen height>
    region: { x1: -1, y1: -500 }

  - name: PowerToys Always on Top
    region: { x1: -1 } # right edge of the screen
    trigger: { m: X1 } # mouse back button
    action: { kb: [LWIN, LCONTROL, LSHIFT, F1] } # send a key combination

• Supported keyboard keys: Virtual-Key Codes
• Supported mouse inputs: L, R, M, X1, X2, WHEEL (with state: UP/DOWN)
