← WoW API < GetBinding

Returns the command name and all keys currently bound to the command specified by index. This would generally be used in conjunction with GetNumBindings() to loop through and set/get all of the key bindings available.

---

Arguments

(Int index)

index

A value from 1 to X where X is the number returned from GetNumBindings()

---

Returns

command, key1, key2, ..., keyN

command

(string) The name of the command the keys are bound to (e.g. MOVEFORWARD, TOGGLEFRIENDSTAB). Used in GetBindingKey("command") among other things.

key1-N

(string) The string representation of the key bound to this command (e.g. W, CTRL-F). Even though the default key binding GUI window only displays 2 possible keys bound to each command, it appears there is no limit to the number of keys that can be bound to a single command. This function will return as many keys as have been set with SetBinding("key"{,"command"}).

---

Example

command, key1, key2 = GetBinding(5);
DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(command.." has the following keys bound:",1.0,1.0,1.0);
if (key1) then DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(key1,1.0,1.0,1.0); end
if (key2) then DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(key2,1.0,1.0,1.0); end
