I got it working using the format of their documentation online:
https://pythonhosted.org/pynput/keyboard.html
from pynput.keyboard import Key, Listenerdef on_press(key):#print('{0} pressed'.format(#key))check_key(key)def on_release(key):#print('{0} release'.format(# key))if key == Key.esc:# Stop listenerreturn Falsedef check_key(key):if key in [Key.up, Key.down, Key.left, Key.right]: print('YES')# Collect events until releasedwith Listener(on_press=on_press,on_release=on_release) as listener:listener.join()
