norns-kbd-layout-generator

convert layout files from QMK project to monome norns own format.

this is what got used to generate files in norns/lua/core/keymap/.

usage

retrieve any of the layout files (keymap_*.h) from https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/quantum/keymap_extras/ locally.

run the script, e.g.:

python3 ./main.py --src ~/Code/qmk_firmware/quantum/keymap_extras/keymap_french.h --dest fr.lua

drop the resulting file in the /home/we/norns/lua/core/keymap/.

import it in /home/we/norns/lua/core/keyboard.lua:

keyboard.keymap = {}
keyboard.keymap.us = require 'core/keymap/us'
keyboard.keymap.fr = require 'core/keymap/fr' -- new entry

full dump

this is what got used to generate current set of keymaps.

limitations

the char corresponding to each key is a comment in QMK keymap files. they could have a bad value whithout QMK users noticing.

assumes only Shift and AltGr as charset modifiers. if other ones exists, it wuld be trivial to add them.
