          # 🐝 BeePad 🐝
A MacroPad full of bees.
This is a library for building bee-powered RGB macro keys using the [Adafruit RP2040 Macropad](https://www.adafruit.com/product/5128).
It supports 20 pages of 12 macros, so 240 individual macros.
It is written using [CircuitPython](https://circuitpython.org/).
## Usage
You will need to write a `code.py` to define your macros.
```python
from beepad import BeePad
from beepad.keymap import Keymap, TypeAction
pad = BeePad([
    Keymap("Git", [
        TypeAction("gst", "git status\n"),
        TypeAction("gc", "git commit\n"),
        TypeAction("gc -m", "git commit -m @"), # US Keyboard :(
        TypeAction("gca!", "git commit --amend\n"),
        TypeAction("gd", "git diff \n"),
        TypeAction("gd -s", "git diff --staged\n"),
        TypeAction("ga .", "git add .\n"),        
        TypeAction("ggpush", "git push origin $(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)\n"),
        TypeAction("ggpull", "git pull origin $(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)\n"),
        TypeAction("main", "git checkout main\n"),
        TypeAction("grm", "git rebase origin/main\n"),
        TypeAction("dgt", "git checkout -b dgt/"),
    ]),
    # Add more keymaps here!
])
while True:
    pad.b()
```
## Updating
The `boot.py` file disables the serial port and USB flash drive in normal operation.
You can re-enable them by holding the top-left key when resetting the device.
Alternatively you can just not copy the `boot.py` to your device, although this will mean that there is always an additional flash drive connected to your computer, risking corruption of the flash on the RP2040.
## Requirements
The following CircuitPython libraries are required.
You will need to install them in `lib/`.
