onkeyup key-value in Javascript

Question

I have a standard textbox and I've got jQuery on the page. I want to act when the user types a space into the textbox. I am, however, unsure of how to do this.

Can anybody give me a hand with this please?

var KEYS = {
    SPACE: 32
};

$("#textbox").keyup(function(e) {
    if (e.keyCode === KEYS.SPACE) {
        console.log("Space key pressed");
    }
});
