This command formats C code using clang-format.
Run it with no arguments to format all core code that has been changed. Default checks origin/master with git diff, branch can be changed using -b <branch_name>
Run it with -a to format all core code, or pass filenames on the command line to run it on specific files.
Usage for specified files:
qmk cformat [file1] [file2] [...] [fileN]
Usage for all core files:
qmk cformat -a
Usage for only changed files against origin/master:
qmk cformat
Usage for only changed files against branch_name:
qmk cformat -b branch_name
This command allows you to compile firmware from any directory. You can compile JSON exports from https://config.qmk.fm, compile keymaps in the repo, or compile the keyboard in the current working directory.
Usage for Configurator Exports:
qmk compile <configuratorExport.json>
Usage for Keymaps:
qmk compile -kb <keyboard_name> -km <keymap_name>
Usage in Keyboard Directory:
Must be in keyboard directory with a default keymap, or in keymap directory for keyboard, or supply one with --keymap <keymap_name>
qmk compile
Usage for building all keyboards that support a specific keymap:
qmk compile -kb all -km <keymap_name>
Example:
$ qmk config compile.keymap=default
$ cd ~/qmk_firmware/keyboards/planck/rev6
$ qmk compile
Ψ Compiling keymap with make planck/rev6:default
...
or with optional keymap argument
$ cd ~/qmk_firmware/keyboards/clueboard/66/rev4
$ qmk compile -km 66_iso
Ψ Compiling keymap with make clueboard/66/rev4:66_iso
...
or in keymap directory
$ cd ~/qmk_firmware/keyboards/gh60/satan/keymaps/colemak
$ qmk compile
Ψ Compiling keymap with make make gh60/satan:colemak
...
Usage in Layout Directory:
Must be under qmk_firmware/layouts/, and in a keymap folder.
qmk compile -kb <keyboard_name>
Example:
$ cd ~/qmk_firmware/layouts/community/60_ansi/mechmerlin-ansi
$ qmk compile -kb dz60
Ψ Compiling keymap with make dz60:mechmerlin-ansi
...
This command is similar to qmk compile, but can also target a bootloader. The bootloader is optional, and is set to :flash by default.
To specify a different bootloader, use -bl <bootloader>. Visit the Flashing Firmware guide for more details of the available bootloaders.
Usage for Configurator Exports:
qmk flash <configuratorExport.json> -bl <bootloader>
Usage for Keymaps:
qmk flash -kb <keyboard_name> -km <keymap_name> -bl <bootloader>
Listing the Bootloaders
qmk flash -b
This command lets you configure the behavior of QMK. For the full qmk config documentation see CLI Configuration.
Usage:
qmk config [-ro] [config_token1] [config_token2] [...] [config_tokenN]
This command starts a local HTTP server which you can use for browsing or improving the docs. Default port is 8936.
Usage:
qmk docs [-p PORT]
This command examines your environment and alerts you to potential build or flash problems. It can fix many of them if you want it to.
Usage:
qmk doctor [-y] [-n]
Examples:
Check your environment for problems and prompt to fix them:
qmk doctor
Check your environment and automatically fix any problems found:
qmk doctor -y
Check your environment and report problems only:
qmk doctor -n
Creates a keymap.c from a QMK Configurator export.
Usage:
qmk json2c [-o OUTPUT] filename
This command allows you to convert from raw KLE data to QMK Configurator JSON. It accepts either an absolute file path, or a file name in the current directory. By default it will not overwrite info.json if it is already present. Use the -f or --force flag to overwrite.
Usage:
qmk kle2json [-f] <filename>
Examples:
$ qmk kle2json kle.txt
☒ File info.json already exists, use -f or --force to overwrite.
$ qmk kle2json -f kle.txt -f
Ψ Wrote out to info.json
This command lists all the keyboards currently defined in qmk_firmware
Usage:
qmk list-keyboards
This command lists all the keymaps for a specified keyboard (and revision).
Usage:
qmk list-keymaps -kb planck/ez
This command creates a new keymap based on a keyboard's existing default keymap.
Usage:
qmk new-keymap [-kb KEYBOARD] [-km KEYMAP]
This command formats python code in qmk_firmware.
Usage:
qmk pyformat
This command runs the python test suite. If you make changes to python code you should ensure this runs successfully.
Usage:
qmk pytest
