A small D application that use gtkD and libusb-d to let you use the Steelseries keyboard found on the MSI GS73VR 6RF laptop. It may work with other hardware too. I mean, if you don't care about making your keyboard looks like a christmas tree at work.
Only tested on Linux Mint 18.2
- Install "libusb-1.0-0-dev"
- Install DMD and DUB : http://d-apt.sourceforge.net/
- Then enter in the project directory and run "dub" in a terminal
- ???
- Profit!
- It create an icon in the status bar and let you quick set a color, a preset, or quit.
- If you click the status icon, the "preset" window will appear, from here you can manage your presets.
- Presets are saved in "~/.config/msi-steelseries.json".
- Double click and other cool stuff are missing for now.
- You can edit the configuration file to add your custom icon that is used in the status bar and windows used in app.
- Normal mode: Set Left Middle and Right, color and intensity.
- Game mode: Set Left only, color and intensity (other parts are turned off).
I don't plan to make use of custom RGB color (but the Keyboard class can) so the classes are not designed to handle it. Preset class can only get/set predefined colors and intensities.
- I'm not that familiar with D code, in fact I'm an Android developper so you can find some dava code and your eyes can start bleeding.
- The user interface is designed using Glade, they are loaded in Controller classes that manage an UI part (window or custom layouts to be included at runtime).
This program make use of libusb-d that is included in this repo. Only imports path was modified to make it usable with new version of D build tools. See https://github.com/brbx/libusb-d
D-Language bindings to gtk-3.6. See https://gtkd.org/.
This work was only possible thanks to some other people that worked on it prior to me:
