+# Data Driven Configuration
+
+This page describes how QMK's data driven JSON configuration system works. It is aimed at developers who want to work on QMK itself.
+
+## History
+
+Historically QMK has been configured through a combination of two mechanisms- `rules.mk` and `config.h`. While this worked well when QMK was only a handful of keyboards we've grown to encompass nearly 1500 supported keyboards. That extrapolates out to 6000 configuration files under `keyboards/` alone! The freeform nature of these files and the unique patterns people have used to avoid duplication have made ongoing maintenance a challenge, and a large number of our keyboards follow patterns that are outdated and sometimes harder to understand.
+
+We have also been working on bringing the power of QMK to people who aren't comformable with a CLI, and other projects such as VIA are working to make using QMK as easy as installing a program. These tools need information about how a keyboard is laid out or what pins and features are available so that users can take full advantage of QMK. We introduced `info.json` as a first step towards this. The QMK API is an effort to combine these 3 sources of information- `config.h`, `rules.mk`, and `info.json`- into a single source of truth that end-user tools can use.
+
+Now we have support for generating `rules.mk` and `config.h` values from `info.json`, allowing us to have a single source of truth. This will allow us to use automated tooling to maintain keyboards saving a lot of time and maintenance work.
+
+## Overview
+
+On the C side of things nothing changes. When you need to create a new rule or define you follow the same process:
+
+1. Add it to `docs/config_options.md`
+1. Set a default in the appropriate core file
+1. Add your ifdef statements as needed
+
+You will then need to add support for your new configuration to `info.json`. The basic process is:
+
+1. Add it to the schema in `data/schemas/keyboards.jsonschema`
+1. Add a mapping in `data/maps`
+1. (optional and discoraged) Add code to extract/generate it to:
+ * `lib/python/qmk/info.py`
+ * `lib/python/qmk/cli/generate/config_h.py`
+ * `lib/python/qmk/cli/generate/rules_mk.py`
+
+## Adding an option to info.json
+
+This section describes adding support for a `config.h`/`rules.mk` value to info.json.
+
+### Add it to the schema
+
+QMK maintains [jsonschema](https://json-schema.org/) files in `data/schemas`. The values that go into keyboard-specific `info.json` files are kept in `keyboard.jsonschema`. Any value you want to make available to end users to edit must go in here.
+
+In some cases you can simply add a new top-level key. Some examples to follow are `keyboard_name`, `maintainer`, `processor`, and `url`. This is appropriate when your option is self-contained and not directly related to other options.
+
+In other cases you should group like options together in an `object`. This is particularly true when adding support for a feature. Some examples to follow for this are `indicators`, `matrix_pins`, and `rgblight`. If you are not sure how to integrate your new option(s) [open an issue](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues/new?assignees=&labels=cli%2C+python&template=other_issues.md&title=) or [join #cli on Discord](https://discord.gg/heQPAgy) and start a conversation there.
+
+### Add a mapping
+
+In most cases you can add a simple mapping. These are maintained as JSON files in `data/mappings/info_config.json` and `data/mappings/info_rules.json`, and control mapping for `config.h` and `rules.mk`, respectively. Each mapping is keyed by the `config.h` or `rules.mk` variable, and the value is a hash with the following keys:
+
+* `info_key`: (required) The location within `info.json` for this value. See below.
+* `value_type`: (optional) Default `str`. The format for this variable's value. See below.
+* `to_json`: (optional) Default `true`. Set to `false` to exclude this mapping from info.json
+* `to_c`: (optional) Default `true`. Set to `false` to exclude this mapping from config.h
+* `warn_duplicate`: (optional) Default `true`. Set to `false` to turn off warning when a value exists in both places
+
+#### Info Key
+
+We use JSON dot notation to address variables within info.json. For example, to access `info_json["rgblight"]["split_count"]` I would specify `rgblight.split_count`. This allows you to address deeply nested keys with a simple string.
+
+Under the hood we use [Dotty Dict](https://dotty-dict.readthedocs.io/en/latest/), you can refer to that documentation for how these strings are converted to object access.
+
+#### Value Types
+
+By default we treat all values as simple strings. If your value is more complex you can use one of these types to intelligently parse the data:
+
+* `array`: A comma separated array of strings
+* `array.int`: A comma separated array of integers
+* `int`: An integer
+* `hex`: A number formatted as hex
+* `list`: A space separate array of strings
+* `mapping`: A hash of key/value pairs
+
+### Add code to extract it
+
+Most use cases can be solved by the mapping files described above. If yours can't you can instead write code to extract your config values.
+
+Whenever QMK generates a complete `info.json` it extracts information from `config.h` and `rules.mk`. You will need to add code for your new config value to `lib/python/qmk/info.py`. Typically this means adding a new `_extract_<feature>()` function and then calling your function in either `_extract_config_h()` or `_extract_rules_mk()`.
+
+If you are not sure how to edit this file or are not comfortable with Python [open an issue](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues/new?assignees=&labels=cli%2C+python&template=other_issues.md&title=) or [join #cli on Discord](https://discord.gg/heQPAgy) and someone can help you with this part.
+
+### Add code to generate it
+
+The final piece of the puzzle is providing your new option to the build system. This is done by generating two files:
+
+* `.build/obj_<keyboard>/src/info_config.h`
+* `.build/obj_<keyboard>/src/rules.mk`
+
+These two files are generated by the code here:
+
+* `lib/python/qmk/cli/generate/config_h.py`
+* `lib/python/qmk/cli/generate/rules_mk.py`
+
+For `config.h` values you'll need to write a function for your rule(s) and call that function in `generate_config_h()`.
+
+If you have a new top-level `info.json` key for `rules.mk` you can simply add your keys to `info_to_rules` at the top of `lib/python/qmk/cli/generate/rules_mk.py`. Otherwise you'll need to create a new if block for your feature in `generate_rules_mk()`.

-## **(DEPRECATED)** The Old Way: `MACRO()` & `action_get_macro`
-
-!> This is inherited from TMK, and hasn't been updated - it's recommended that you use `SEND_STRING` and `process_record_user` instead.
-
-By default QMK assumes you don't have any macros. To define your macros you create an `action_get_macro()` function. For example:
-
-```c
-const macro_t *action_get_macro(keyrecord_t *record, uint8_t id, uint8_t opt) {
- if (record->event.pressed) {
- switch(id) {
- case 0:
- return MACRO(D(LSFT), T(H), U(LSFT), T(I), D(LSFT), T(1), U(LSFT), END);
- case 1:
- return MACRO(D(LSFT), T(B), U(LSFT), T(Y), T(E), D(LSFT), T(1), U(LSFT), END);
- }
- }
- return MACRO_NONE;
-};
-```
-
-This defines two macros which will be run when the key they are assigned to is pressed. If instead you'd like them to run when the key is released you can change the if statement:
-
- if (!record->event.pressed) {
-
-### Macro Commands
-
-A macro can include the following commands:
-
-* I() change interval of stroke in milliseconds.
-* D() press key.
-* U() release key.
-* T() type key(press and release).
-* W() wait (milliseconds).
-* END end mark.
-
-### Mapping a Macro to a Key
-
-Use the `M()` function within your keymap to call a macro. For example, here is the keymap for a 2-key keyboard:
-
-```c
-const uint16_t PROGMEM keymaps[][MATRIX_ROWS][MATRIX_COLS] = {
- [0] = LAYOUT(
- M(0), M(1)
- ),
-};
-
-const macro_t *action_get_macro(keyrecord_t *record, uint8_t id, uint8_t opt) {
- if (record->event.pressed) {
- switch(id) {
- case 0:
- return MACRO(D(LSFT), T(H), U(LSFT), T(I), D(LSFT), T(1), U(LSFT), END);
- case 1:
- return MACRO(D(LSFT), T(B), U(LSFT), T(Y), T(E), D(LSFT), T(1), U(LSFT), END);
- }
- }
- return MACRO_NONE;
-};
-```
-
-When you press the key on the left it will type "Hi!" and when you press the key on the right it will type "Bye!".
-
-### Naming Your Macros
-
-If you have a bunch of macros you want to refer to from your keymap while keeping the keymap easily readable you can name them using `#define` at the top of your file.
-
-```c
-#define M_HI M(0)
-#define M_BYE M(1)
-
-const uint16_t PROGMEM keymaps[][MATRIX_ROWS][MATRIX_COLS] = {
- [0] = LAYOUT(
- M_HI, M_BYE
- ),
-};
-```
-
-
-## Advanced Example:
-
-### Single-Key Copy/Paste
-
-This example defines a macro which sends `Ctrl-C` when pressed down, and `Ctrl-V` when released.
-
-```c
-const macro_t *action_get_macro(keyrecord_t *record, uint8_t id, uint8_t opt) {
- switch(id) {
- case 0: {
- if (record->event.pressed) {
- return MACRO( D(LCTL), T(C), U(LCTL), END );
- } else {
- return MACRO( D(LCTL), T(V), U(LCTL), END );
- }
- break;
- }
- }
- return MACRO_NONE;
-};
-```

+This is an extension of the accelerated mode.

+
+Tips:
+
+* The smoothness of the cursor movement depends on the `MOUSEKEY_INTERVAL` setting. The shorter the interval is set the smoother the movement will be. Setting the value too low makes the cursor unresponsive. Lower settings are possible if the micro processor is fast enough. For example: At an interval of `8` milliseconds, `125` movements per second will be initiated. With a base speed of `1000` each movement will move the cursor by `8` pixels.
+* Mouse wheel movements are implemented differently from cursor movements. While it's okay for the cursor to move multiple pixels at once for the mouse wheel this would lead to jerky movements. Instead, the mouse wheel operates at step size `1`. Setting mouse wheel speed is done by adjusting the number of wheel movements per second.
+
### Constant mode
In this mode you can define multiple different speeds for both the cursor and the mouse wheel. There is no acceleration. `KC_ACL0`, `KC_ACL1` and `KC_ACL2` change the cursor and scroll speed to their respective setting.

The chip passes on the remaining data to the next LED, allowing them to be chained together. In this way, you can easily control the color of the individual LEDs.

-
-!> これは TMK から継承されており、更新されていません - 代わりに `SEND_STRING` と `process_record_user` を使うことをお勧めします。
-
-デフォルトでは、QMK はマクロが無いことを前提としています。マクロを定義するには、`action_get_macro()` 関数を作成します。例えば:
-
-```c
-const macro_t *action_get_macro(keyrecord_t *record, uint8_t id, uint8_t opt) {
- if (record->event.pressed) {
- switch(id) {
- case 0:
- return MACRO(D(LSFT), T(H), U(LSFT), T(I), D(LSFT), T(1), U(LSFT), END);
- case 1:
- return MACRO(D(LSFT), T(B), U(LSFT), T(Y), T(E), D(LSFT), T(1), U(LSFT), END);
- }
- }
- return MACRO_NONE;
-};
-```
-
-これは割り当てられているキーが押された時に実行される2つのマクロを定義します。キーが放された時にそれらを実行したい場合は、if 文を変更することができます。
-
- if (!record->event.pressed) {
-
-### マクロコマンド
-
-マクロは以下のコマンドを含めることができます:
-
-* I() はストロークの間隔をミリ秒単位で変更します。
-* D() はキーを押します。
-* U() はキーを放します。
-* T() はキーをタイプ(押して放す)します。
-* W() は待ちます (ミリ秒)。
-* END 終了マーク。
-
-### マクロをキーにマッピングする
-
-マクロを呼び出すにはキーマップ内で `M()` 関数を使います。例えば、2キーのキーボードのキーマップは以下の通りです:
-
-```c
-const uint16_t PROGMEM keymaps[][MATRIX_ROWS][MATRIX_COLS] = {
- [0] = LAYOUT(
- M(0), M(1)
- ),
-};
-

- switch(id) {
- case 0:

- case 1:
- return MACRO(D(LSFT), T(B), U(LSFT), T(Y), T(E), D(LSFT), T(1), U(LSFT), END);
- }
- }
- return MACRO_NONE;
-};
-```
-
-左側のキーを押すと、"Hi!" を入力し、右側のキーを押すと "Bye!" を入力します。
-
-### マクロに名前を付ける
-
-キーマップを読みやすくしながらキーマップから参照したいマクロがたくさんある場合は、ファイルの先頭で `#define` を使って名前を付けることができます。
-
-```c
-#define M_HI M(0)
-#define M_BYE M(1)
-
-const uint16_t PROGMEM keymaps[][MATRIX_ROWS][MATRIX_COLS] = {
- [0] = LAYOUT(
- M_HI, M_BYE
- ),
-};
-```
-
-
-## 高度な例:
-
-### 単一キーのコピーと貼り付け
-
-この例は、押された時に `Ctrl-C` を送信し、放される時に `Ctrl-V` を送信するマクロを定義します。
-
-```c
-const macro_t *action_get_macro(keyrecord_t *record, uint8_t id, uint8_t opt) {
- switch(id) {
- case 0: {
- if (record->event.pressed) {

+### Matrix Pins
+
+Currently QMK supports connecting switches either directly to GPIO pins or via a switch matrix. At this time you can not combine these, they are mutually exclusive.
+
+#### Switch Matrix
+
+Most keyboards use a switch matrix to connect keyswitches to the MCU. You can define your pin columns and rows to configure your switch matrix. When defining switch matrices you should also define your `diode_direction`.
+
+Example:
+
+```json
+{
+ "diode_direction": "COL2ROW",
+ "matrix_pins": {
+ "cols": ["F4", "E6", "B1", "D2"],
+ "rows": ["B0", "D3", "D5", "D4", "D6"]
+ }
+}
+```
+
+#### Direct Pins
+
+Direct pins are when you connect one side of the switch to GND and the other side to a GPIO pin on your MCU. No diode is required, but there is a 1:1 mapping between switches and pins.
+
+When specifying direct pins you need to arrange them in nested arrays. The outer array consists of rows, while the inner array is a text string corresponding to a pin. You can use `null` to indicate an empty spot in the matrix.
+
+Example:
+
+```json
+{
+ "matrix_pins": {
+ "direct": [
+ ["A10", "A9"],
+ ["A0", "B8"],
+ [null, "B11"],
+ ["B9", "A8"],
+ ["A7", "B1"],
+ [null, "B2"]
+ ]
+ }
+}
+```
+
+### RGB Lighting
+
+This section controls the legacy WS2812 support in QMK. This should not be confused with the RGB Matrix feature, which can be used to control both WS2812 and ISSI RGB LEDs.
+
+The following items can be set. Not every value is required.
+
+* `led_count`
+ * The number of LEDs in your strip
+* `pin`
+ * The GPIO pin that your LED strip is connected to
+* `animations`
+ * A dictionary that lists enabled and disabled animations. See [RGB Light Animations](#rgb_light_animations) below.
+* `sleep`
+ * Set to `true` to enable lighting during host sleep
+* `split`
+ * Set to `true` to enable synchronization functionality between split halves
+* `split_count`
+ * For split keyboards, the number of LEDs on each side
+* `max_brightness`
+ * (0-255) What the maxmimum brightness (value) level is
+* `hue_steps`
+ * How many steps of adjustment to have for hue
+* `saturation_steps`
+ * How many steps of adjustment to have for saturation
+* `brightness_steps`
+ * How many steps of adjustment to have for brightness (value)
+
+Example:
+
+```json
+{
+ "rgblight": {
+ "led_count": 4,
+ "pin": "F6",
+ "hue_steps": 10,
+ "saturation_steps": 17,
+ "brightness_steps": 17,
+ "animations": {
+ "all": true
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+#### RGB Light Animations
+
+The following animations can be enabled:
+
+| Key | Description |
+|-----|-------------|
+| `all` | Enable all additional animation modes. |
+| `alternating` | Enable alternating animation mode. |
+| `breathing` | Enable breathing animation mode. |
+| `christmas` | Enable christmas animation mode. |
+| `knight` | Enable knight animation mode. |
+| `rainbow_mood` | Enable rainbow mood animation mode. |
+| `rainbow_swirl` | Enable rainbow swirl animation mode. |
+| `rgb_test` | Enable RGB test animation mode. |
+| `snake` | Enable snake animation mode. |
+| `static_gradient` | Enable static gradient mode. |
+| `twinkle` | Enable twinkle animation mode. |
+
+### USB
+
+Every USB keyboard needs to have its USB parmaters defined. At a minimum you need to set vid, pid, and device version.
+
+Example:
+
+```json
+{
+ "usb": {
+ "vid": "0xC1ED",
+ "pid": "0x23B0",
+ "device_ver": "0x0001"
+ }
+}

+# UART Driver
+
+The UART drivers used in QMK have a set of common functions to allow portability between MCUs.
+
+Currently, this driver does not support enabling hardware flow control (the `RTS` and `CTS` pins) if available, but may do so in future.
+
+## AVR Configuration
+
+No special setup is required - just connect the `RX` and `TX` pins of your UART device to the opposite pins on the MCU:
+
+|MCU |`TX`|`RX`|`CTS`|`RTS`|
+|-------------|----|----|-----|-----|
+|ATmega16/32U2|`D3`|`D2`|`D7` |`D6` |

+|ATmega32A |`D1`|`D0`|*n/a*|*n/a*|
+|ATmega328/P |`D1`|`D0`|*n/a*|*n/a*|
+
+## ChibiOS/ARM Configuration
+
+You'll need to determine which pins can be used for UART -- as an example, STM32 parts generally have multiple UART peripherals, labeled USART1, USART2, USART3 etc.
+
+To enable UART, modify your board's `halconf.h` to enable the serial driver:
+
+```c
+#define HAL_USE_SERIAL TRUE
+```
+
+Then, modify your board's `mcuconf.h` to enable the peripheral you've chosen, for example:
+
+```c
+#undef STM32_SERIAL_USE_USART2
+#define STM32_SERIAL_USE_USART2 TRUE
+```
+
+Configuration-wise, you'll need to set up the peripheral as per your MCU's datasheet -- the defaults match the pins for a Proton-C, i.e. STM32F303.
+
+|`config.h` override |Description |Default Value|
+|--------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------|-------------|
+|`#define SERIAL_DRIVER` |USART peripheral to use - USART1 -> `SD1`, USART2 -> `SD2` etc.|`SD1` |
+|`#define SD1_TX_PIN` |The pin to use for TX |`A9` |
+|`#define SD1_TX_PAL_MODE` |The alternate function mode for TX |`7` |
+|`#define SD1_RX_PIN` |The pin to use for RX |`A10` |
+|`#define SD1_RX_PAL_MODE` |The alternate function mode for RX |`7` |
+|`#define SD1_CTS_PIN` |The pin to use for CTS |`A11` |
+|`#define SD1_CTS_PAL_MODE`|The alternate function mode for CTS |`7` |
+|`#define SD1_RTS_PIN` |The pin to use for RTS |`A12` |
+|`#define SD1_RTS_PAL_MODE`|The alternate function mode for RTS |`7` |
