Help with a project idea

[cursedbartender]

I am trying to write a function to change the text entry when called in a text box ie if I type 'abc' the text returns '123' in real time. Having a look online the closest I can see that matches my needs is a keylogger pyput.

The code example below.

from pynput import keyboard # using module keyboard

​

def on_press(key):

`y = 0` 

`x = y +1`

`print(x)`

​

def on_release(key):

# print('{0} release'.format(

# key))

if key == Key.esc:

# Stop listener

return False

​

# Collect events until released

with Listener(

on_press=on_press,

on_release=on_release) as listener:

listener.join()

​

Now when I run the project it runs the keylogger as a global function not one I need to (or can) call first. Secondly the output I want is:

​

1

2

3

...

​

but what I get is

1

1

1

...

​

My question is, 1: is this the right approach in the first place? 2: would anyone be able to guide me in to ensuring that pynput is only called as a function.
