hook for keyboard down or when user start typing

[cddodev]

Hi,

I am not sure if there is a hook here where I can track when user starts typing?

I have tried the following but doesnt work...

  const element = document.querySelector("#my-autocomplete-container");
  const id = "app-site-search__input";
  accessibleAutocomplete({
    element: element,
    id: id,
    confirmOnBlur: false,
    autoselect: true,
    source: customSuggest,
    templates: {
      inputValue: inputValueTemplate,
      suggestion: suggestionTemplate,
    },
  });
  // attach event listener
  let input_field = document.getElementById(id);
  // generate a debounced version with a min time between calls of 1.5 seconds
  let searchTerm = function () {
    console.log('searched'+ input_field.value)
  };
  input_field.addEventListener("input", searchTerm);

onConfirm only gets fired when user presses enter which is not what I want.

@cddodev you can most likely add this hook as another side effect to the source
