* Line ending stuff again * Added Let's Split Eh? Files and updated #USE_IC2 checks to also include th EH revision (can only be used in I2C) * Added personal keymap, updated some of the EH files * Created new keyboard file for testing "lets_split_eh" will merge into lets_split once fully functional * Added split code from lets_split, removed pro micro imports and LED code THIS IS WORKING CODE, WITHOUT RGB AND BACKLIGHT * Took back original Lets Slit files for the lets_split keyboard, working in the lets_split_eh folder for now * Updated eh.c * More rework of the I2C code, added global flags for split boards. * Introduced RGB over I2C, having weird edge case issues at the moment though * Fixed weird I2C edgecase with RGB, although still would like to track down route cause.. * Changed RGB keycodes (static ones) to activate on key-up instead of key-down to elimate weird ghosting issue over I2C * Lots of changes, mainly externalized the Split keyboard code and added logic for only including when needed. - Added makefile option "SPLIT_KEYBOARD" that when = yes will include the split keyboard files and custom matrix - Split keyboard files placed into quantum/split_common/ - Added define option for config files "SPLIT_HAND_PIN" FOr using high/low pin to determine handedness, low = right hand, high = left hand - Cleaned up split logic for RGB and Backlight so it is only exectuted / included when needed * Updated documentation for the new makefile options and #defines specific to split keyboards * Added a bit more info to docs, so people aren't confused * Modifed Let's Split to use externalized code, also added left and right hand eeprom files to the split_common folder * Removed some debugging from eh.c * Small changes to keyboard configs. Also added a default keymap (just a copy of my that_canadian keymap). * Added a README file to the Let's Split Eh? * Changed it so RGB static updates are done on key-up ONLY for split boards rather than all boards. Also fixed leftover un-used variable in rgblight.c * Updated default keymap and my keymap for Let's Split Eh? Updated the comments so it reflects RGB control, and removed audio functions. * Fixed lets_split_eh not having a default version * Removed "eh" references from lets_split folder for now * Took lets_split folder from master to fix travis build errors, weird my local was overriding. * Changed LAYOUT_ortho_4x12_kc -> LAYOUT_kc_ortho_4x12 to match bakingpy and others * Removed rules.mk from my lets_split keymap, not needed * Updated the config_options doc to better explain the usage of "#define SPLIT_HAND_PIN"

# Configuring QMK
|
|
|
|
QMK is nearly infinitely configurable. Wherever possible we err on the side of allowing users to customize their keyboard, even at the expense of code size. That level of flexibility makes for a daunting configuration experience, however.
|
|
|
|
There are two main types of configuration files in QMK- `config.h` and `rules.mk`. These files exist at various levels in QMK and all files of the same type are combined to build the final configuration. The levels, from lowest priority to highest priority, are:
|
|
|
|
* QMK Default
|
|
* Keyboard
|
|
* Folders (Up to 5 levels deep)
|
|
* Keymap
|
|
|
|
## QMK Default
|
|
|
|
Every available setting in QMK has a default. If that setting is not set at the Keyboard, Folder, or Keymap level this is the setting that will be used.
|
|
|
|
## Keyboard
|
|
|
|
This level contains config options that should apply to the whole keyboard. Some settings won't change in revisions, or most keymaps. Other settings are merely defaults for this keyboard and can be overridden by folders and/or keymaps.
|
|
|
|
## Folders
|
|
|
|
Some keyboards have folders and sub-folders to allow for different hardware configurations. Most keyboards only go 1 folder deep, but QMK supports structures up to 5 folders deep. Each folder can have its own `config.h` and `rules.mk` files that are incorporated into the final configuration.
|
|
|
|
## Keymap
|
|
|
|
This level contains all of the options for that particular keymap. If you wish to override a previous declaration, you can use `#undef <variable>` to undefine it, where you can then redefine it without an error.
|
|
|
|
# The `config.h` File
|
|
|
|
This is a C header file that is one of the first things included, and will persist over the whole project (if included). Lots of variables can be set here and accessed elsewhere. The `config.h` file shouldn't be including other `config.h` files, or anything besides this:
|
|
|
|
#include "config_common.h"
|
|
|
|
|
|

## Features That Can Be Disabled
|
|
|
|
If you define these options you will disable the associated feature, which can save on code size.
|
|
|
|
* `#define NO_DEBUG`
|
|
* disable debugging
|
|
* `#define NO_PRINT`
|
|
* disable printing/debugging using hid_listen
|
|
* `#define NO_ACTION_LAYER`
|
|
* disable layers
|
|
* `#define NO_ACTION_TAPPING`
|
|
* disable tap dance and other tapping features
|
|
* `#define NO_ACTION_ONESHOT`
|
|
* disable one-shot modifiers
|
|
* `#define NO_ACTION_MACRO`
|
|
* disable all macro handling
|
|
* `#define NO_ACTION_FUNCTION`
|
|
* disable the action function (deprecated)
|
|
|
|
## Features That Can Be Enabled
|
|
|
|
If you define these options you will enable the associated feature, which may increase your code size.
|
|
|
|
* `#define FORCE_NKRO`
|
|
* NKRO by default requires to be turned on, this forces it on during keyboard startup regardless of EEPROM setting. NKRO can still be turned off but will be turned on again if the keyboard reboots.
|
|
* `#define PREVENT_STUCK_MODIFIERS`
|
|
* stores the layer a key press came from so the same layer is used when the key is released, regardless of which layers are enabled
|
|
|
|
## Behaviors That Can Be Configured
|
|
|
|
* `#define TAPPING_TERM 200`
|
|
* how long before a tap becomes a hold, if set above 500, a key tapped during the tapping term will turn it into a hold too
|
|
* `#define RETRO_TAPPING`
|
|
* tap anyway, even after TAPPING_TERM, if there was no other key interruption between press and release
|
|
* See [Retro Tapping](feature_advanced_keycodes.md#retro-tapping) for details
|
|
* `#define TAPPING_TOGGLE 2`
|
|
* how many taps before triggering the toggle
|
|
* `#define PERMISSIVE_HOLD`
|
|
* makes tap and hold keys work better for fast typers who don't want tapping term set above 500
|
|
* See [Permissive Hold](feature_advanced_keycodes.md#permissive-hold) for details
|
|
* `#define IGNORE_MOD_TAP_INTERRUPT`
|
|
* makes it possible to do rolling combos (zx) with keys that convert to other keys on hold
|
|
* See [Mod tap interrupt](feature_advanced_keycodes.md#mod-tap-interrupt) for details
|
|
* `#define TAPPING_FORCE_HOLD`
|
|
* makes it possible to use a dual role key as modifier shortly after having been tapped
|
|
* See [Hold after tap](feature_advanced_keycodes.md#hold-after-tap)
|
|
* `#define LEADER_TIMEOUT 300`
|
|
* how long before the leader key times out
|
|
* `#define ONESHOT_TIMEOUT 300`
|
|
* how long before oneshot times out
|
|
* `#define ONESHOT_TAP_TOGGLE 2`
|
|
* how many taps before oneshot toggle is triggered
|
|
* `#define QMK_KEYS_PER_SCAN 4`
|
|
* Allows sending more than one key per scan. By default, only one key event gets
|
|
sent via `process_record()` per scan. This has little impact on most typing, but
|
|
if you're doing a lot of chords, or your scan rate is slow to begin with, you can
|
|
have some delay in processing key events. Each press and release is a separate
|
|
event. For a keyboard with 1ms or so scan times, even a very fast typist isn't
|
|
going to produce the 500 keystrokes a second needed to actually get more than a
|
|
few ms of delay from this. But if you're doing chording on something with 3-4ms
|
|
scan times? You probably want this.
|
|
|
|
## RGB Light Configuration
|
|
|
|
* `#define RGB_DI_PIN D7`
|
|
* pin the DI on the ws2812 is hooked-up to
|
|
* `#define RGBLIGHT_ANIMATIONS`
|
|
* run RGB animations
|
|
* `#define RGBLED_NUM 15`
|
|
* number of LEDs
|
|
* `#define RGBLIGHT_HUE_STEP 12`
|
|
* units to step when in/decreasing hue
|
|
* `#define RGBLIGHT_SAT_STEP 25`
|
|
* units to step when in/decreasing saturation
|
|
* `#define RGBLIGHT_VAL_STEP 12`
|
|
* units to step when in/decreasing value (brightness)
|
|
* `#define RGBW_BB_TWI`
|
|
* bit-bangs TWI to EZ RGBW LEDs (only required for Ergodox EZ)
|
|
|
|
## Mouse Key Options

|
|
## Split Keyboard Options
|
|
|
|
Split Keyboard specific options, make sure you have 'SPLIT_KEYBOARD = yes' in your rules.mk
|
|
|
|
* `#define SPLIT_HAND_PIN B7`
|
|
* For using high/low pin to determine handedness, low = right hand, high = left hand. Replace 'B7' with the pin you are using. This is optional and you can still use the EEHANDS method or MASTER_LEFT / MASTER_RIGHT defines like the stock Let's Split uses.
|
|
|
|
* `#define USE_I2C`
|
|
* For using I2C instead of Serial (defaults to serial)
|
|
|
|
# The `rules.mk` File
|
|
|
|
This is a [make](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html) file that is included by the top-level `Makefile`. It is used to set some information about the MCU that we will be compiling for as well as enabling and disabling certain features.
|
|
|
|
## Build Options
|
|
|
|
* `DEFAULT_FOLDER`
|
|
* Used to specify a default folder when a keyboard has more than one sub-folder.
|
|
* `SRC`
|
|
* Used to add files to the compilation/linking list.
|
|
* `LAYOUTS`
|
|
* A list of [layouts](feature_layouts.md) this keyboard supports.
|
|
|
|
## AVR MCU Options
|
|
* `MCU = atmega32u4`
|
|
* `F_CPU = 16000000`
|
|
* `ARCH = AVR8`
|
|
* `F_USB = $(F_CPU)`
|
|
* `OPT_DEFS += -DINTERRUPT_CONTROL_ENDPOINT`
|
|
* `BOOTLOADER = atmel-dfu` with the following options:

|
|
* `bootloadHID`
|
|
|
|
## Feature Options
