Angular Switch - Keyboard Support

An end user can use the following keys to interact with the UI component.

Key Action
Enter or Space Changes the UI component value.
→ Changes the switch state to "On".
← Changes the switch state to "Off".

You can implement a custom handler for a key using the registerKeyHandler(key, handler) method.

jQuery
JavaScript
function registerKeyHandlers () {
    const switch = $("#switchContainer").dxSwitch("instance");
    switch.registerKeyHandler("backspace", function(e) {
        // The argument "e" contains information on the event
    });
    switch.registerKeyHandler("space", function(e) {
        // ...
    });
}
Angular
TypeScript
import { ..., ViewChild, AfterViewInit } from '@angular/core';
import { DxSwitchModule, DxSwitchComponent } from 'devextreme-angular';
// ...
export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit {
    @ViewChild(DxSwitchComponent, { static: false }) switch: DxSwitchComponent;
    // Prior to Angular 8
    // @ViewChild(DxSwitchComponent) switch: DxSwitchComponent;

    ngAfterViewInit () {
        this.switch.instance.registerKeyHandler('backspace', function(e) {
            // The argument "e" contains information on the event
        });
        this.switch.instance.registerKeyHandler('space', function(e) {
            // ...
        });
    }
}
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        // ...
        DxSwitchModule
    ],
    // ...
})
Vue
<template>
    <DxSwitch :ref="mySwitchRef" />
</template>
<script>
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import DxSwitch from 'devextreme-vue/switch';

const mySwitchRef = 'my-switch';

export default {
    components: {
        DxSwitch
    },
    data() {
        return {
            mySwitchRef
        }
    },
    computed: {
        switch: function() {
            return this.$refs[mySwitchRef].instance;
        }
    },
    mounted: function() {
        this.switch.registerKeyHandler('backspace', function(e) {
            // The argument "e" contains information on the event
        });
        this.switch.registerKeyHandler('space', function(e) {
            // ...
        });
    }
}
</script>
React
App.js
import React from 'react';
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import { Switch } from 'devextreme-react/switch';

class App extends React.Component {
    constructor(props) {
        super(props);

        this.switchRef = React.createRef();
    }

    render() {
        return (
            <Switch ref={this.switchRef} />
        );
    }

    get switch() {
        return this.switchRef.current.instance;
    }

    componentDidMount() {
        this.switch.registerKeyHandler('backspace', function(e) {
            // The argument "e" contains information on the event
        });
        this.switch.registerKeyHandler('space', function(e) {
            // ...
