Soft off support for 1.1 technikable PCB

[GrantCuster]

I just flashed a new technikable pcb with Miryoku and everything is working great except the 'soff off' which I gather is a pretty new feature.

I found the technikable revision petejohanson/technikable-zmk-config@60b1d2e#diff-870dfcd95b0ae6a9a44d71c7a445eef66af4bc8e9c6d9a7e788957ba94d676fe and also this discussion of the soft off feature in relation to miryoku here #284. But I'm not totally sure what my process should be for enabling soft off for the technikable 1.1. I did try just adding CONFIG_ZMK_PM_SOFT_OFF=y to KCONFIG but that was not enough. Not sure what else to apply from that overlay.

Any tips? Thanks!

It looks like technikable@1.1 has hardware support for soft off. I'll add support for that board revision, but if you'd like to do it you could try adding an outboard for boards/technikable@1.1. See https://github.com/manna-harbour/miryoku_zmk#outboards.

Thanks for taking a look! If I have time to tinker I'll take a look at adding the outboard, but I'll probably wait for it to be added.

I ended up tinkering -- it's a little weird (I think) because 1.1 is in the same folder as the original technikable, so I couldn't figure out a way to specify which revision in the outboard config file.

I ended up forking zmk-config and setting the default revision to 1.1
GrantCuster/technikable-zmk-config@6129f77

Then pointing the technikable outboard config in my fork of miryoku zmk to that config fork. Soft off and everything else working great for me now.

For revisions, you build with the board name including the revision, e.g. technikable@1.1. Outboard file names need to match the board or shield name being built, e.g. boards/technikable@1.1. In this case both boards/technikable and boards/technikable@1.1 will have the same contents, as the same keyboard definition supports multiple board revisions.

The workflow could be updated to look for an outboard file without the board revision, if none is found with the revision, then there would only need to be one file in this case.

The workflow now strips the revision before matching the outboard.

I've added the outboard. Build with board technikable@1.1. Here's a sample build run: https://github.com/manna-harbour/miryoku_zmk/actions/runs/8903167272.

@petejohanson I've also updated the original technikable outboard to use the module.
