Text Input

injectText is a shorthand for injecting multiple keyboard events. The server converts the text to a sequence of key events and injects them into the device.

Because it's essentially a sequence of key events, only printable characters are supported. To inject Unicode text, the only method is using the device clipboard.

Options

interface ScrcpyInjectTextControlMessage {
    text: string;
}

• text: The text content to inject into the device.

Usage

JavaScript

// Using `ScrcpyControlMessageSerializer`
const message = serializer.injectText("Hello, world!");

// Using `ScrcpyControlMessageWriter`
await writer.injectText("Hello, world!");

// Using `AdbScrcpyClient`
await client.controller.injectText("Hello, world!");

TypeScript

// Using `ScrcpyControlMessageSerializer`
const message: Uint8Array = serializer.injectText("Hello, world!");

// Using `ScrcpyControlMessageWriter`
await writer.injectText("Hello, world!");

// Using `AdbScrcpyClient`
await client.controller!.injectText("Hello, world!");
