Adds Glove80's status indicator using RGB underglow support. Requires ZMK PR#999 and PR#1243. The underglow status is able to show layer state, battery levels, caps/num/scroll-lock, BLE and USB state. The underglow positions selected for each of these indicators is configured using the new devicetree node zmk,underglow-indicators, which takes an array of integer LED positions for each feature.
Disable underglow when battery below 10%, halve brightness when battery below 20%
Adds a Kconfig setting for the default EXT_POWER status at initialization time. Previously it was always initialized to on if no saved value was present.
Provides an entry point that builds and returns a combined LH + RH keyboard firmware when provided a keymap via a POST body. Wraps compilation with ccache, and includes a pre-warmed cache of the build in /tmp/ccache. To maximize chance of a direct cache hit, changes the lambda driver to always build in /tmp/build. some back of the envelope measurements (2012 xeon e3-1230v2, nixos) clean build, no cache -> 21.308 clean build, cache -> 7.145 modified keymap, clean build, cache -> 12.127
Additionally adds a board definition for Glove80-v0, an early version of Glove80.
…zation I tried using event instead of the 25ms underglow_tick to update the underglow on layer change only. That didn't improve the battery life much.... The second change is cutting off the led strip power if the underglow is not defined for a layer. Power is restored if a layer with rgb is activated, and cut off as soon as the layer is disabled. This, on the other hand, improves the battery life a lot, especially if you don't use rgb on your base layer. If you are using rgb on your base layer, setting CONFIG_ZMK_RGB_UNDERGLOW_AUTO_OFF_IDLE is highly recommended.
This fixes a bug introduced in zmkfirmware#2244

This adds per key / per layer RGB underglow configuration.
It's mainly based on @valdur mod with additional changes to make it configurable via devicetree.
It includes:
How to use:
More instructions are available on my config repo.
TLDR: Add and customize this snippet to the Custom Device-tree field in the layout editor:
______means the RGB is off. You can use predefined color name or RGB hex code like0xFF0000for red.Full example on the Layout Editor here
To preserve battery life, I recommend enabling the
ZMK_RGB_UNDERGLOW_AUTO_OFF_IDLEKConfig to automatically turn off underglow afterZMK_IDLE_TIMEOUTms (default to 30 seconds).From my limited experience, you can expect around one week of battery life with no RGB on the base layer.
