use custom item with keybind

[Turesso]

I'm working on my first Minecraft mod, and I've created an item that requires a keybind to activate. However, currently, I need to press my assigned keybind and then hold down the default Minecraft keybind (right mouse button) for the item to function. How can I make it so that the item only requires my custom keybind to work?

    public InteractionResultHolder<ItemStack> use(Level pLevel, Player pPlayer, InteractionHand pHand) {
        ItemStack itemstack = pPlayer.getItemInHand(pHand);

        ItemStack offhandStack = pPlayer.getItemInHand(InteractionHand.OFF_HAND);
        if (!offhandStack.isEmpty()) {

            return InteractionResultHolder.fail(itemstack);
        }
      
        if (isCharged(itemstack)) {
            // Verifica se está usando a mão correta
            if (pHand == InteractionHand.MAIN_HAND) {
                performShooting(pLevel, pPlayer, pHand, itemstack, getShootingPower(itemstack), 0F);
                setCharged(itemstack, false);
                return InteractionResultHolder.consume(itemstack);
            }
        } else if (hasAmmo(pPlayer)) {
            if(KeyBindings.INSTANCE.examplekey.isDown()){
            if (!isCharged(itemstack)) {
                if (pHand == InteractionHand.MAIN_HAND) {
                    this.startSoundPlayed = false;
                    pPlayer.startUsingItem(pHand);
                }
            }
            }

            return InteractionResultHolder.consume(itemstack);
        } else {
            pLevel.playSound((Player) null, pPlayer.getX(), pPlayer.getY(), pPlayer.getZ(), ModSounds.NOAMMO.get(), SoundSource.PLAYERS, 1.0F, 1.0F);
            return InteractionResultHolder.fail(itemstack);
        }

        return InteractionResultHolder.fail(itemstack);
    }

You should follow the approach described here and then when a key press is detected you need to call 'use()' and also send a packet to the server to make sure the server also calls 'use()'.
