Unable to map keys with keyboard that suppors Razer Hypershift about i3razer

[eghere]

Additionally, trying to load a config file has a similar output of errors:

~]$ i3razer -c ~/Documents/Misc/config.yaml 
Traceback (most recent call last):

Thanks for pointing out the issue with map_layout. It is not a problem with your keyboard but a problem in the code. I fixed it in the new release v0.2. Actually in the old version the file layout.py was still created and then the exception was thrown. I also noticed, the original layout.py, which keeps the keymap, was missing in this repo but was available with pip. This file is now also present.

Once you created your version of the layout you need to copy it to the install directory (either ~/.local/... or /usr/ ... lib/python3.x/site-packages/i3razer) and replace the current file. Unfortunately any update or re installation of the package will overwrite your file, but I have no current plan to load the layout in another way. Maybe you have an idea how to solve this problem.

I think your second issue with the config fails resolves, if you use your updated layout. I did not consider the usage of smaller keyboards than mine. Maybe I should add a check such that invalid keys would not break the program.

As far as I checked the fn key can't be mapped automatically, because it implemented in the hardware and does not send any information to the computer. But its color can be set. So it is needed to manually add the the fn key to the layout.

I hope this solves your problem and you can use my tool for your keyboard.
