Now have to create an object to use this class. If you try to run this program, it will not work as we’ve now created a class and haven’t used it, we # as every method that is defined inside a class is called on the instance of that object. # separated with an underscore _, functions inside a class are called as methods, every method should have first argument as self, # you can name the class anything but with a capital intial letter, functions should have name with small initial letter and These classes allow us to use OOP where functions can be used as objects. We’ll be using OOP in order to eliminate the usage of global variables and also we'll use classes.

Hard coding those data into the program, however, this is not a good practice and hence the OOP needs to The password as a global variable so that we can access the contents in other functions. Similar to the log that we’ve defined as a global variable, we’ll also have to define the username and Now that we have a Keylogger working perfectly, we just need to send the logs through emails. # since we’re calling report() from report() it is called as recursive function # timer will run on separate thread and will call report() module after every 60 seconds # basically we’ll drop the contents from the log once it is sent # since we are reporting the log file, we must empty the log before it starts saving fresh keys The report() function will be executed seperately on a new thread after every specific period of The main program will continuously log the keys without inturuptions and The log after certain period of time, it will either never be executed or the execution will stuck forever We’ll be using anotherįunction report(), however, if we call this function with the main program and expect it to send Now we need to send the logged keys after every speicified period of time. Keyboard_listener = (on_press=process_key_press) # since spacebar is mostly used while typing, we will replace key.space with an actual space # on pressing keys such as spacebar, we get AttributeError, hence except AttributeError # store each key one by one as a character into log, keys other than character is not accepted (keys such as tabs, backspace, space etc.) hence try and except is implemented # log is declared out of all the functions, this is where all the characters are stored, it is a global variable Where we’ll store those typed keys and send it to the specified email address after every defined periodĪlso, if you see, there's an additional 'u' printed before every character. In our program instead of sending each typed character to our email, we’ll use a global variable It is declared outside of the function or in global A global variable is accessable from any fucntion.
