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 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. + +**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 +``` + +**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](flashing.md) guide for more details of the available bootloaders. + +**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.

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.
