xauth warning and not registering keys on Linux

I’m running my program with sudo

Initailly I’ve gotten such result:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/root/.Xauthority'

then after creating empty .Xauthority file for root

Xlib.xauth: warning, no xauthority details available

Callbacks I’ve added arent executed when I press the keys. Clearly some description of the issue is missing in the readme.

And here’s how I’m using the llibrary: https://github.com/mibli/i3-pyswitch/blob/feature/daemon/src/i3switch/input.py

Oh yes, I haven’t updated the PyPI module in a while. I basically rewrote much of the backend and wanted to gather feedback here on GitHub before publishing the update. I think it’s ok now, so I’ll push the update. Thanks for the reminder.

On the logging.info I corrected myself used logging.error instead. I prefer logging over print because logging seems to work better for multithreaded applications, while print sometimes would not print anything. I used keyboard.hook() to check if it was catching anything, and found out to my suprise that the module had no “hook” method. So I uninstalled keyboard from pip and manually added submodule to my repo, and it works. So maybe there was something wrong with the module I installed from the repository.
