This library does processing on input device events while providing an API
to the the user used for delegating more useful input events.
libinput
libinput is a library that handles input devices for display servers and other
applications that need to directly deal with input devices.
It provides device detection, device handling, input device event processing
and abstraction so minimize the amount of custom input code the user of
libinput need to provide the common set of functionality that users expect.
Input event processing includes scaling touch coordinates, generating
pointer events from touchpads, pointer acceleration, etc.
It is based on the input code from the weston Wayland reference compositor.
libinput originates from weston, the Wayland reference compositor.
It has no other dependencies than libmtdev and supports only evdev devices.
The source code of libinput can be found at:
