#Media Detect
Media-Detect is a tool that listens global window creation/destruction and fires callbacks accordingly. Only works on Windows for now. On Windows the library hooks into shell using RegisterShellHookWindow then listens shell messages and fires javascript callbacks.
#Usage
Require the module and simply create an object then register the callback you'd like to listen.
var NativeMD = require('media-detect').MediaDetect;
var MediaDetect = new NativeMD();
//Called when a new window created,i.e., you launch a program/explorer
MediaDetect.SetWindowCreateCallback( function(arg) { //Arg will be [WindowName,WindowId]
//...
});
//Called when a window is activated
MediaDetect.SetWindowActivateCallback( function(arg) { //Arg will be [WindowName,WindowId]
//...
});
//Called when a window closed/destroyed
MediaDetect.SetWindowCloseCallback( function(arg) { //Arg will be [WindowName,WindowId]
//...
});
//Called when a window changes monitor
MediaDetect.SetWindowMonitorChangeCallback( function(arg) { //Arg will be [WindowName,WindowId]
//...
});
