Hi,
this is awesome!
I can not do a PR because I had to change the VendorId and ProductId to make via work without clash.
I don't see a problem with it. When I wrote the firmware I left the default ones (which clashes with the GH60) because they weren't used by anything. Now with VIA things changed a bit. Feel free to modify it.
Should I request a PR anyway ?
I think this is a really cool feature to add to the project. If you want to, please go on and request a PR to the QMK team.
Ok. I will prep my branch for PR and let you know. I already have a PR for ErgoTravel keyboard, will create Redox-w PR once ErgoTravel is pulled into qmk master
Incase you want to try out via let me know will share the config files with you.
Hi @mattdibi
I have added config to my branch of QMK and VIA. Please use the following to test. it will be a while before qmk pulls the changes for ErgoTravel. Only after that I can push my changes for Redox_w
QMK: https://github.com/harshitgoel96/qmk_firmware/tree/redox-via
VIA Json: https://github.com/harshitgoel96/keyboards/tree/redox_w-via
I will update the thread once PR has been raised.
@mattdibi I have created pull request for redox_w via.
@mattdibi the via config is merged in QMK master.
Is it possible to get via support for the non wireless redox? I looked into it but the via documentation is kinda poor and I don’t fully understand what to do.

Yes it should be is possible. What microcontroller does it use? it uses pro micro, I will prepare a config and put on my repo. Since I don't have the hardware someone will help me in testing it.

Ok cool, I’m also using an elite-c in one of my halves, but this controller is a drop in replacement for the pro micro. I can test it on my keyboard then when you got the config ready, I'd just need some minor instructions on what to do with the config file.
@TheWeirdDodo Pro Micro and Elite C are based on same ATMEGA32 microcontroller so its not an issue.
I have done config on
https://github.com/harshitgoel96/qmk_firmware/tree/redox-harshit
make redox:via
settings-> enable design lab-> switch to design tab -> click on load-> select via.json from redox folder
if everything was correct you should not be able to enjoy VIA features on redox.
Please let me know if any issue is present.
This might not work as both halves of the keyboard have intependent pro micros, but i might be wrong
@harshitgoel96 Thanks, I will give it a try!
I am back with good news, it works just fine. Was able to flash it with my firmware and via support! thanks a lot for your help! Only "problem" is that via reports it as a redox-w but this is only in the editor.

I have updated the via.json with correct name. Please take an updated from the branch. Please confirm all keybinding are correct so that I can proceed with pull request on master qmk branch.

Thanks for the update. All keybindings worked fine. All keys are recognized correctly in via.

@TheWeirdDodo thanks for testing. i have requested a PR https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/10710 https://github.com/the-via/keyboards/pull/378
@mattdibi once this pull is merged with qmk i will close this issue.
@harshitgoel96 Hi, I just heard from a friend that he can controll his keyboards rgb light using via, I also got rgb for my redox but there is no option in via for this. Do yo know what i need to do to implement this?
@TheWeirdDodo RGB support is enabled on VIA.
I think special keys you should find RGB keys, and you should be able to map it to layers.
Apart from that I do not have RGB keyboard so never used the config setting to change lighting on keyboard. Will look into it and add to via json file.
Can you ask your friend which keyboard he is getting option to change lighting from via ?

So it is a Switch couture alice with a pcb from Project keyboard. According to the via docs, a setting in the via.json is needed:
"lighting": "none",
Here then one would need to set: none,
qmk_backlight,
qmk_rgblight,
qmk_backlight_rgblight,
wt_rgb_backlight,
or wt_mono_backlight
depending on what type of lighting is used.
I can try this later myself when I get home.
Ok so I got it working now in via, had to change none
to qmk_rgblight
in the via.json file.
@TheWeirdDodo @mattdibi the PR has been merged for OG Redox. i will close this ISSUE now
Hi,
Would it be possible to make the QMK firmware for dongle be VIA compatible?I have updated the QMK Code for both redox, and redox-w
dongleto support VIA.I can not do a PR because I had to change the VendorId and ProductId to make via work without clash.Should I request a PR anyway ?PR has been requested for both keyboards.PR Status: Redox-w : merged Redox : merged.
