QMK CLI Commands
User Commands
qmk compile
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.
This command is directory aware. It will automatically fill in KEYBOARD and/or KEYMAP if you are in a keyboard or keymap 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
...
qmk flash
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.
This command is directory aware. It will automatically fill in KEYBOARD and/or KEYMAP if you are in a keyboard or keymap directory.
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
qmk config
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]
qmk doctor
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
qmk info
Displays information about keyboards and keymaps in QMK. You can use this to get information about a keyboard, show the layouts, display the underlying key matrix, or to pretty-print JSON keymaps.
Usage:
qmk info [-f FORMAT] [-m] [-l] [-km KEYMAP] [-kb KEYBOARD]
This command is directory aware. It will automatically fill in KEYBOARD and/or KEYMAP if you are in a keyboard or keymap directory.
Examples:
Show basic information for a keyboard:
qmk info -kb planck/rev5
Show the matrix for a keyboard:
qmk info -kb ergodox_ez -m
Show a JSON keymap for a keyboard:
qmk info -kb clueboard/california -km default
qmk json2c
Creates a keymap.c from a QMK Configurator export.
Usage:
qmk json2c [-o OUTPUT] filename
qmk c2json
Creates a keymap.json from a keymap.c.
Note: Parsing C source files is not easy, therefore this subcommand may not work your keymap. In some cases not using the C pre-processor helps.
Usage:
qmk c2json [--no-cpp] [-o OUTPUT] filename
qmk lint
Checks over a keyboard and/or keymap and highlights common errors, problems, and anti-patterns.
Usage:
qmk lint [-km KEYMAP] [-kb KEYBOARD] [--strict]
This command is directory aware. It will automatically fill in KEYBOARD and/or KEYMAP if you are in a keyboard or keymap directory.
Examples:
Do a basic lint check:
qmk lint -kb rominronin/katana60/rev2
qmk list-keyboards
This command lists all the keyboards currently defined in qmk_firmware
Usage:
qmk list-keyboards
qmk list-keymaps
This command lists all the keymaps for a specified keyboard (and revision).
This command is directory aware. It will automatically fill in KEYBOARD if you are in a keyboard directory.
Usage:
qmk list-keymaps -kb planck/ez
qmk new-keymap
This command creates a new keymap based on a keyboard's existing default keymap.
This command is directory aware. It will automatically fill in KEYBOARD and/or KEYMAP if you are in a keyboard or keymap directory.
Usage:
qmk new-keymap [-kb KEYBOARD] [-km KEYMAP]
qmk clean
This command cleans up the .build folder. If --all is passed, any .hex or .bin files present in the qmk_firmware directory will also be deleted.
Usage:
qmk clean [-a]
Developer Commands
qmk cformat
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
qmk docs
This command starts a local HTTP server which you can use for browsing or improving the docs. Default port is 8936.

qmk docs [-p PORT]
qmk generate-docs

Usage:
qmk generate-docs
qmk generate-rgb-breathe-table
This command generates a lookup table (LUT) header file for the RGB Lighting feature's breathing animation. Place this file in your keyboard or keymap directory as rgblight_breathe_table.h to override the default LUT in quantum/.
Usage:
qmk generate-rgb-breathe-table [-q] [-o OUTPUT] [-m MAX] [-c CENTER]
qmk kle2json
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.
