Add userspace config.h handling to build script (#2640)
* Add userspace 'config.h' file * Add more robust docs * Remove config.h code from drashna userspace * Spelling error * Include links to Config Options page * Remove config.h documentation from userspace doc, as it's no longer needed

If you use more than one keyboard with a similar keymap, you might see the benefit in being able to share code between them. Create your own folder in `users/` named the same as your keymap (ideally your github username, `<name>`) with the following structure:
|
||||
|
||||
* `/users/<name>/` (added to the path automatically)
|
||||
* `readme.md`
|
||||
* `readme.md` (optional, recommended)
|
||||
* `rules.mk` (included automatically)
|
||||
* `<name>.h` (optional)
|
||||
* `<name>.c` (optional)
|
||||
* `config.h` (optional)
|
||||
|

`<name>.c` will need to be added to the SRC in `rules.mk` like this:

|

|
||||
Additionally, `config.h` here will be processed like the same file in your keymap folder. This is handled separately from the `<name>.h` file.
|
||||
|
||||
The reason for this, is that `<name>.h` won't be added in time to add settings (such as `#define TAPPING_TERM 100`), and including the `<name.h>` file in any `config.h` files will result in compile issues.
|
||||
|
||||
So you should use the `config.h` for QMK settings, and the `<name>.h` file for user or keymap specific settings.

## `Config.h`
|
||||
|
||||
If you do add a `config,h` file, you want to make sure that it only gets processed once. So you may want to start off with something like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#ifndef USERSPACE_CONFIG_H
|
||||
#define USERSPACE_CONFIG_H
|
||||
|
||||
// Put normal config.h settings here:
|
||||
|
||||
#endif // !USERSPACE_CONFIG_H
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can use any option hre that you could use in your keymap's `config.h` file. You can find a list of vales [here](config_options.md).

||||

||||
## Example
|
||||
|
||||
For a brief example, checkout `/users/_example/` , or for a more detailed examples check out [`template.h`](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/users/drashna/template.h) and [`template.c`](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/users/drashna/template.c) in `/users/drashna/` .

This is my personal userspace file. Most of my code exists here, as it's heavily shared.
|
||||

Userspace Config.h
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the userspace feature doesn't include a `config.h` file the way that that keyboards, revisions, keymaps and layouts handle them. This means that if you want global configurations via userspace, it's very difficult to implement.
|
||||
|
||||
The reason for using seperate files here is that the `drashna.h` file doesn't get called in such a way that will actually define QMK settings. Additionally, attempting to add it to the `config.h` files has issues. Namely, the `drashna.h` file requires the `quantum.h` file... but including this to the `config.h` attemps to redefines a bunch of settings and breaks the firmare. Removing the `quantum.h` include means that a number of data structures no longer get added, and the `SAFE_RANGE` value is no longer defined, as well. So we need both a `config.h` for global config, and we need a seperate h file for local settings.
|
||||
|
||||
However, the `rules.mk` file is included when building the firmware. So we can hijack that process to "manually" add a `config.h`. To do so, you would need to add the following to the `rules.mk` in your userspace:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
ifneq ("$(wildcard users/$(KEYMAP)/config.h)","")
|
||||
CONFIG_H += users/$(KEYMAP)/config.h
|
||||
endif
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can replace `$(KEYMAP)` with your name, but it's not necessary. This checks for the existence of `/users/<name>/config.h`, and if it exists, includes it like every other `config.h` file, allowing you to make global `config.h` settings.
|
||||
|
||||
As for the `config.h` file, you want to make sure that it has an "ifdef" in it to make sure it's only used once. So you want something like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#ifndef USERSPACE_CONFIG_H
|
||||
#define USERSPACE_CONFIG_H
|
||||
|
||||
// put stuff here
|
||||
|
||||
#endif
|
||||
```
