Input

Provides a greatly-simplified window into GLFW input, as a GL Context Service. Input bindings are defined in a data-driven way that is easily serialized through the StructTypes package.

Make sure to update this service every frame (with service_Input_update()); this is already handled for you if you build your game logic within @game_loop.

You can reset the service's state with service_Input_reset().

Buttons

Buttons are binary inputs. A single button can come from more than one source, in which case they're OR-ed together (e.x. you could bind "fire" to right-click, Enter, and Joystick1->Button4).

Create a button with create_button(name::AbstractString, inputs::ButtonInput...). Refer to the ButtonInput class for more info on how to configure your buttons. A button can come from keyboard keys, mouse buttons, or joystick buttons.

Get the current value of a button with get_button(name::AbstractString)::Bool.

Axes

Axes are continuous inputs, represented with Float32. Unlike buttons, they can only come from one source.

Create an axis with create_axis(name::AbstractString, input::AxisInput). Refer to the AxisInput class for more info on how to configure your axis. An axis can come from mouse position, scroll wheel, joystick axes, or a list of ButtonAsAxis.

Get the current value of an axis with get_axis(name::AbstractString)::Float32.
