Some functions to handle color management on the Drevo Tyrfing V2
Project description
complete rework since 0.3
Installation
-
Copy the
99-drevo-tyrfing.rules
in the/etc/udev/rules.d/
directory to grant user with permissions for to send/write informations to the keyboard. Restart or# udevadm trigger
. -
pip3 install dtv2
Requirements
dtv2
needs hidapi
library: pip3 install hidapi
Change colors
Python module to manage key color assignments on the Drevo Tyrfing v2 keyboard.
import dtv2
my_kbd = dtv2.dtv2()
# mem_effect: the more you type the more color change
my_kbd.mem_effect((0, 0, 0xff), color2=(0xff, 0, 0), brightness=100)
# radar: rays turn around central key (direction: 0 or 1)
my_kbd.radar((0, 0, 0xff), color2=(0xff, 0, 0), brightness=100, speed=100, direction=0)
# static: simple static color or if rainbow=True alternate rainbow colors
my_kbd.static((0, 0, 0xff), brightness=100, speed=100, rainbow=False)
# breath: breath effect
my_kbd.breath((0, 0, 0xff), brightness=100, speed=100)
# stream: stream effect (direction = 'n' or 's' or 'e' or 'w')
my_kbd.stream((0, 0, 0xff), color2=(0xff, 0, 0), brightness=100, speed=100, direction='e')
# category: change color of a whole category ('letters', 'digits', 'arrows', 'function', 'mod', 'edition')
my_kbd.category('arrows', (0xff, 0, 0))
# key: simple key color change
my_kbd.key('esc', (0xff, 0, 0))
For the moment rainbow
in static
mode can be tricky and affect
other effects.
Using simple key
or category
modes enter personal mode so exit
all others. It can be boring to affect each key of the keyboard to
the same color so there's this special method in personal mode to
change all the keyboard color (and then you can change categories colors and finally some individual keys): kbd
my_kbd.kbd((0xff, 0, 0))
my_kbd.category('letters', (0, 0, 0xff))
my_kbd.key('space', (0, 0, 0xff))
Recap
If you need a monocolor keyboard : static
If you want some effects : radar
, static
(with rainbow)
breath
or stream
If you want to personalize categories or some keys : kbd
, category
or key
.
key identifiers and command prefix
First steps with a prefix from:
https://github.com/dennisblokland/DrevoTyrfing
Then: I used wireshark to find other prefixes.
USB hid tables (for missing french key codes)
colors
Color tuples can be given in decimals, of course.
And now?
-
Fix bugs
-
Add functionalities
-
Add a utility script handling color names (with
colour
package maybe) -
...
Thanks
