# Encoder module Add twist control to your keyboard! Volume, zoom, anything you want ## Enabling the extension The constructor(`EncoderHandler` class) takes a list of encoders, each one defined as a list of pad_a pin, pad_b pin, button_pin and optionnally a flag set to True is youwant it to be reversed The encoder_map is modeled after the keymap and works the same way. It should have as many layers (key pressed on "turned left", key pressed on "turned right", key pressed on "knob pressed") as your keymap, and use KC.NO keys for layers that you don't require any action. The encoder supports a velocity mode if you desire to make something for video or sound editing. ## How to use How to use this module in your main / code file 1. load the module ```python from kmk.modules.encoder import EncoderHandler encoder_handler = EncoderHandler() keyboard.modules = [layers, modtap, encoder_handler] ``` 2. Define the pins for each encoder (pin_a, pin_b, pin_button, True for an inversed encoder) ```python encoder_handler.pins = ((board.GP17, board.GP15, board.GP14, False), (encoder 2 definition), etc. ) ``` 3. Define the mapping of keys to be called (1 / layer) ```python # You can optionally predefine combo keys as for your layout Zoom_in = KC.LCTRL(KC.EQUAL) Zoom_out = KC.LCTRL(KC.MINUS) encoder_handler.map = [(( KC.VOLD, KC.VOLU, KC.MUTE),(encoder 2 definition), etc. ), # Layer 1 ((KC.Zoom_out, KC.Zoom_in, KC.NO),(encoder 2 definition), etc. ), # Layer 2 ((KC.A, KC.Z, KC.N1),(encoder 2 definition), etc. ), # Layer 3 ((KC.NO, KC.NO, KC.NO),(encoder 2 definition), etc. ), # Layer 4 ] ``` 4. Encoder methods on_move_do and on_button_do can be overwritten for complex use cases ## Full example (with 1 encoder) ```python import board from kmk.kmk_keyboard import KMKKeyboard from kmk.consts import UnicodeMode from kmk.keys import KC from kmk.matrix import DiodeOrientation from kmk.modules.layers import Layers from kmk.modules.encoder import EncoderHandler keyboard = KMKKeyboard() layers = Layers() encoder_handler = EncoderHandler() keyboard.modules = [layers, encoder_handler] keyboard.col_pins = ( board.GP0, board.GP1, board.GP2, board.GP3, board.GP4, board.GP5, board.GP6, board.GP7, board.GP8, board.GP9, board.GP10, board.GP11, board.GP12, board.GP13, ) keyboard.row_pins = (board.GP28, board.GP27, board.GP22, board.GP26, board.GP21) keyboard.diode_orientation = DiodeOrientation.COLUMNS encoder_handler.pins = ((board.GP17, board.GP15, board.GP14, False),) keyboard.tap_time = 250 keyboard.debug_enabled = False # Filler keys _______ = KC.TRNS xxxxxxx = KC.NO tbdtbd = KC.A # Layers LYR_STD, LYR_EXT, LYR_NUM, LYR_GAME = 0, 1, 2, 3 TO_STD = KC.DF(LYR_STD) MT_EXT = KC.MO(LYR_EXT) TO_NUM = KC.MO(LYR_NUM) TO_GAME = KC.DF(LYR_GAME) # Keymap keyboard.keymap = [ # Standard (ISO) Layer [ KC.ESC , KC.N1 , KC.N2 , KC.N3 , KC.N4 , KC.N5 , KC.N6 , KC.N7 , KC.N8 , KC.N9 , KC.N0 , KC.MINS, KC.EQL , KC.BSPC, KC.TAB , KC.Q , KC.W , KC.E , KC.R , KC.T , KC.Y , KC.U , KC.I , KC.O , KC.P , KC.LBRC, KC.RBRC, KC.DEL , xxxxxxx, KC.A , KC.S , KC.D , KC.F , KC.G , KC.H , KC.J , KC.K , KC.L , KC.SCLN, KC.QUOT, KC.NUHS, xxxxxxx, KC.LSFT, KC.NUBS, KC.Z , KC.X , KC.C , KC.V , KC.B , KC.N , KC.M , KC.COMM, KC.DOT , KC.SLSH, KC.UP , KC.ENT , KC.LCTL, KC.LGUI, xxxxxxx, KC.LALT, MT_EXT , xxxxxxx, KC.SPC , xxxxxxx, KC.RALT, TO_NUM , KC.RSFT, KC.LEFT, KC.DOWN, KC.RGHT, ], # Extra Keys Layer [ TO_STD , KC.F1 , KC.F2 , KC.F3 , KC.F4 , KC.F5 , KC.F6 , KC.F7 , KC.F8 , KC.F9 , KC.F10 , KC.F11 , KC.F12 , KC.RESET, _______, KC.N1 , KC.N2 , KC.N3 , KC.N4 , KC.N5 , KC.N6 , KC.N7 , KC.N8 , KC.N9 , KC.N0 , KC.MINS, KC.EQL , _______, xxxxxxx, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, xxxxxxx, KC.LSFT, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, _______, KC.PGUP, _______, KC.LCTL, KC.LGUI, xxxxxxx, KC.LALT, MT_EXT , xxxxxxx, _______, xxxxxxx, _______, TO_NUM , _______, KC.HOME, KC.PGDN, KC.END , ], # NumPad Layer [ TO_STD , xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, KC.P7 , KC.P8 , KC.P9 , KC.PSLS, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, KC.BSPC, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, KC.P4 , KC.P5 , KC.P6 , KC.PAST, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, KC.DEL , xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, KC.LPRN, KC.P1 , KC.P2 , KC.P3 , KC.PPLS, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, KC.RPRN, KC.P0 , KC.PDOT, _______, KC.PMNS, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, KC.PENT, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, MT_EXT , xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, TO_NUM , xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, ], # Gaming Layer [ TO_STD , xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, MT_EXT , xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, TO_NUM , xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, ], ] # Rotary Encoder (1 encoder / 1 definition per layer) encoder_handler.map = ( ((KC.UP, KC.DOWN, KC.MUTE),), # Standard ((KC.VOLD, KC.VOLU, KC.MUTE),), # Extra ((KC.A, KC.Z, KC.N1),), # NumPad not yet properly configured ((KC.A, KC.Z, KC.N1),), # Gaming not yet properly configured ) if __name__ == "__main__": keyboard.go()
