Native Posix board target |
In order to iterate quickly on firmware features, it can be helpful to build and run the firmware on your local workstation, with generated virtual press/release events flowing into the handler functions.
Prerequisites
In order to build targeting the native_posix
board, you need to setup your system
with a compiler that can target 32-bit POSIX.
On Debian, you can do this with:
apt install -y gcc-multilib
Building
To do this, you can build ZMK targeting the
native_posix
board.
west build --pristine --board native_posix
Once built, you can run the firmware locally:
./build/zephyr/zephyr.exe
Virtual Key Events
The virtual key presses are hardcoded in boards/native_posix.overlay
file, should you want to change the sequence to test various actions like Mod-Tap, etc.
