QMK CLI

This page describes how to setup and use the QMK CLI.

Overview

The QMK CLI makes building and working with QMK keyboards easier. We have provided a number of commands to help you work with QMK:

  • qmk compile
  • qmk doctor

Setup

Simply add the qmk_firmware/bin directory to your PATH. You can run the qmk commands from any directory.

export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/qmk_firmware/bin

You may want to add this to your .profile, .bash_profile, .zsh_profile, or other shell startup scripts.

Commands

qmk compile

This command allows you to compile firmware from any directory. You can compile JSON exports from https://config.qmk.fm or compile keymaps in the repo.

Usage for Configurator Exports:

qmk compile <configuratorExport.json>

Usage for Keymaps:

qmk compile -kb <keyboard_name> -km <keymap_name>
