It would be interesting to see the various projects that people are making with Input Method Kit.

If you come across this repo and sample code, post a link to your IMKit project in this GitHub issue! 😃

This is a sample program that shows a usage of IMKCandidates' attachChild and related methods.

It is meant to be used as a starting point for input methods with more than a single window.

@pkamb the IMKCandidates' attachChild and showChild methods are awesome, but they are broken since macOS Sierra v10.12. So I have to implement a custom window to show extra information.

@dongyuwei That's unfortunate. Have you opened a radar? If you post yours, I will duplicate it and also forward along to an Apple Engineer in IMKit.

You can also link it in the Radar issue in this repo: #2

This set of apps allows you to type Latin characters in OSX and have them transliterate in real time into Cyrillic characters. This includes multi-character transliterations like 'sh'/'ш'.

OSX has native input method support, typically for complicated character input like Chinese or Hebrew. The advantage of this method is that the transliterated keyboard shows up with all your other keyboards in your menu bar and behaves as expected with all text fields. To install, copy the input method app into your ~/Library/Input Methods directory and select the "Cyrillic Transliterator" keyboard from the Russian section.

Hi all, thanks for compiling this list. It was helpful while I was working on my transliterating input method: https://github.com/brettferdosi/goftam.

I observed a bug with the candidates window on Catalina where hitting the number key associated with a candidate didn't have any effect. I discovered a workaround, which was to set the IMKCandidatesSendServerKeyEventFirst candidates window attribute and to send events to the window from IMKInputController:handle() using the private handleKeyboardEvent method: candidatesWindow.perform(Selector(("handleKeyboardEvent:")), with: event). This seems to work properly in my input method on Catalina. Just wanted to post here in case others have run into the same issue.

@brettferdosi cool project! Please log a radar if you haven't already. We have some other bugs here: #2

@brettferdosi The candidates window was broken since 10.13.x(Mojave ), my workaround is to call candidates window's moveDown and moveUp methods manually, and implement the numeric selection logic manually. See https://github.com/dongyuwei/hallelujahIM/blob/master/src/InputController.mm#L105
