Is is possible to bind a keyboard shortcut to trigger the modal to open?

[puddicombe]

I think my client would save them a lot of time if they were able to use keyboard shortcuts on my app - and one of them would be to open an 'insert' modal with a shortcut.

But I can't work out how to bind a shortcut (which of course one can do to trigger a js function) to then open the modal. Am I missing something obvious?

Try something like:

Template.TemplateName.rendered = function() {

var $this = this;

$(document).on('keypress', function(e) {
    if(!e.ctrlKey) {  // ctrl key
        return false;
    }
    //console.log(e.ctrlKey, e.keyCode, e.which)
    if(e.keyCode == 10 && e.which == 10) {  // enter key, or 13
        var el = $($this.firstNode).find('.button-to-click');
    el.trigger('click');
  }
});

};
