Nice Peripheral View

This is a zmk module version of the nice!view alternative widgets with peripheral status by Tobias Arndt.

You can find the original version in his zmk-config.

Custom Display

It includes custom display code for a screen, which is displayed in sleep and rotated widgets and small pictogramms to display whether the peripheral half is connected.

Setup Instructions

This module is a drop-in replacement for the nice!view widgets. Make sure to get the regular nice!view widgets working first.

Please refer to the nice!view documentation, the nice_view shield readme, and the nice_view_adapter shield.

Once your keyboard shows the nice!view widgets, you can switch to these widgets by making the following changes...

If you are building using GitHub Actions

First adjust your zmk-config/config/west.yml to add the module and switch zmk to a fork that has PR #2036.

manifest:
  remotes:
    - name: zmkfirmware
      url-base: https://github.com/zmkfirmware
+   - name: ReFil
+     url-base: https://github.com/ReFil
+   - name: tobiasarndt
+     url-base: https://github.com/tobiasarndt
+   - name: infused-kim
+     url-base: https://github.com/infused-kim

  projects:
    - name: zmk
-      remote: zmkfirmware
-      revision: main
+      remote: ReFil
+      revision: split-data-xfer
      import: app/west.yml
+
+   # zmk module for nice_peri_view
+   - name: tmp-npv
+     remote: infused-kim
+     revision: main

  self:
    path: config

Next, adjust your zmk-config/build.yaml. Make sure to add the nice_peri_view shield only do your central side (usually the left).

include:
  - board: nice_nano_v2
-   shield: corne_left nice_view
+   shield: corne_left nice_peri_view

  - board: nice_nano_v2
    shield: corne_right nice_view

If you get an error like...

                 from /tmp/zmk-config/zmk/app/src/display/main.c:7:
/tmp/zmk-config/zephyr/include/zephyr/device.h:85:41: error: '__device_dts_ord_DT_CHOSEN_zephyr_display_ORD' undeclared here (not in a function)

Then either make sure nice_view is enabled on your peripheral side or only enable CONFIG_ZMK_DISPLAY=y on the central side where the nice_peri_view shield is included.

You can use zmk-config/config/your_keyboard_left.conf and zmk-config/config/your_keyboard_right.conf to apply different settings to different sides.

Alternatively, you can also just remove CONFIG_ZMK_DISPLAY from your config as it will automatically be enabled when you include the nice_peri_view shield.

If you are building using the local toolchain (Developers only)

Notice

This sub-section is for developers who are building zmk locally on their computers instead of using GitHub Actions. Most people can ignore this sub-section.

Set up the toolchain

Follow the toolchain setup instructions in the zmk documentation.

Add the zmk-config to the toolchain (docker only)

Create a volume with the directory where you will store the zmk-config:

docker volume create --driver local -o o=bind -o type=none -o device="/full/path/to/your/zmk-config/" zmk-config

Add this module to the toolchain (docker only)

At the time of publishing, the docker VSCode toolchain is not set up to work with modules yet.

First, create a volume with the directory of your zmk-config:

docker volume create --driver local -o o=bind -o type=none -o device="/full/path/to/your/zmk-modules/" zmk-modules

Make sure this module is cloned into that zmk-modules directory.

Next, edit in your zmk clone zmk/.devcontainer/devcontainer.json:

{
  "name": "ZMK Development",
  [...]
  "mounts": [
    "type=volume,source=zmk-root-user,target=/root",
    "type=volume,source=zmk-config,target=/workspaces/zmk-config",
+   "type=volume,source=zmk-modules,target=/workspaces/zmk-modules",
    "type=volume,source=zmk-zephyr,target=${containerWorkspaceFolder}/zephyr",
    "type=volume,source=zmk-zephyr-modules,target=${containerWorkspaceFolder}/modules",
    "type=volume,source=zmk-zephyr-tools,target=${containerWorkspaceFolder}/tools"
  ],
  [...]
}

Then, in VSCode press Command + Shift + P and execute the command Dev Containers: Rebuild Without Cache and Reopen in Container.

Once the container is rebuilt, you can delete the above line from your devcontainer.json so that it doesn't pollute your git history. The container will continue mounting the zmk-modules/ volume as long as you don't rebuild it.

Build the firmware

Run the build command...

west build -d build/corne/right -p -b nice_nano_v2 -- -DZMK_EXTRA_MODULES="/workspaces/zmk-config/;/workspaces/zmk-modules/nice_peri_view/" -DZMK_CONFIG="/workspaces/zmk-config/config" -DSHIELD="corne_right nice_peri_view"

The important thing to note here is that you have to add the /workspaces/zmk-config/ to your -DZMK_EXTRA_MODULES and use ; as the separator between multiple modules.

And -DZMK_CONFIG must include not just the path to the zmk-config, but also the sub-directory zmk-config/config.

You can learn more in the zmk dev documentation.

Configuration Options

You can also adjust the following config options:

# Rotate the display by 180 degrees
CONFIG_NICE_PERI_VIEW_ROTATE_DISPLAY=n

# If your central side is on the right, enable this option
CONFIG_NICE_PERI_VIEW_RIGHT_SIDE_CENTRAL=n

# Control when the sleep art should be shown
CONFIG_NICE_PERI_VIEW_SHOW_SLEEP_ART_ON_IDLE=y
CONFIG_NICE_PERI_VIEW_SHOW_SLEEP_ART_ON_SLEEP=y
