To view the config file's syntax, check out the Syntax tab, for keybind names, visit Normal Keybinds and Special Bindings, and if you are here to view emulator-wide keybinds, you can find it in the FAQ section.
This project started out because I didn't like the original unchangeable keybinds, but rather than waiting for someone else to do it, I implemented this myself.

Q: What are the emulator-wide keybinds?
A:
-F12: Triggers Renderdoc capture
-F11: Toggles fullscreen
-F10: Toggles FPS counter
-Ctrl F10: Open the debug menu
-F9: Pauses emultor, if the debug menu is open
-Ctrl+F10: Open the debug menu
-F9: Pauses the emulator if the debug menu is open
-F8: Reparses the config file while in-game
-F7: Toggles mouse capture and mouse input
-F6: Toggles mouse-to-gyro emulation
Q: How do I change between mouse and controller joystick input, and why is it even required?
A: You can switch between them with F7, and it is required, because mouse input is done with polling, which means mouse movement is checked every frame, and if it didn't move, the code manually sets the emulator's virtual controller to 0 (back to the center), even if other input devices would update it.
Q: How do I switch between mouse and controller joystick input? Why is it even required?
A: Pressing F7 toggles between mouse and controller joystick input. It is required because the program polls the mouse input, which means it checks mouse movement every frame. If it didn't move, the code would manually set the emulator's virtual controller to 0 (to the center), even if other input devices would update it.
Q: What happens if I accidentally make a typo in the config?
A: The code recognises the line as wrong, and skip it, so the rest of the file will get parsed, but that line in question will be treated like a comment line. You can find these lines in the log, if you search for 'input_handler'.

Q: I want to bind <input> to <output>, but your code doesn't support <input>!
A: Some keys are intentionally omitted, but if you read the bindings through, and you're sure it is not there and isn't one of the intentionally disabled ones, open an issue on https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4.
Q: What does default.ini do?
A: If you're using per-game configs, it's the base from which all new games generate their config file. If you use the unified config, then this is used for every game directly instead.

Q: What does the use Per-game Config checkbox do?

'leftjoystick_halfmode' and 'rightjoystick_halfmode' = <key>;
These are a pair of input modifiers, that change the way keyboard button bound axes work. By default, those push the joystick to the max in their respective direction, but if their respective joystick_halfmode modifier value is true, they only push it... halfway. With this, you can change from run to walk in games like Bloodborne.

'mouse_to_joystick' = 'none', 'left' or 'right';
This binds the mouse movement to either joystick. If it recieves a value that is not 'left' or 'right', it defaults to 'none'.

'mouse_movement_params' = float, float, float;
(If you don't know what a float is, it is a data type that stores non-whole numbers.)
(If you don't know what a float is, it is a data type that stores decimal numbers.)
Default values: 0.5, 1, 0.125
Let's break each parameter down:
1st: mouse_deadzone_offset: this value should have a value between 0 and 1 (It gets clamped to that range anyway), with 0 being no offset and 1 being pushing the joystick to the max in the direction the mouse moved.
This controls the minimum distance the joystick gets moved, when moving the mouse. If set to 0, it will emulate raw mouse input, which doesn't work very well due to deadzones preventing input if the movement is not large enough.
2nd: mouse_speed: It's just a standard multiplier to the mouse input speed.
If you input a negative number, the axis directions get reversed (Keep in mind that the offset can still push it back to positive, if it's big enough)
3rd: mouse_speed_offset: This also should be in the 0 to 1 range, with 0 being no offset and 1 being offsetting to the max possible value.
This is best explained through an example: Let's set mouse_deadzone to 0.5, and this to 0: This means that if we move the mousevery slowly, it still inputs a half-strength joystick input, and if we increase the speed, it would stay that way until we move faster than half the max speed. If we instead set this to 0.25, we now only need to move the mouse faster than the 0.5-0.25=0.25=quarter of the max speed, to get an increase in joystick speed. If we set it to 0.5, then even moving the mouse at 1 pixel per frame will result in a faster-than-minimum speed.

'key_toggle' = <key>, <key_to_toggle>;
This assigns a key to another key, and if pressed, toggles that key's virtual value. If it's on, then it doesn't matter if the key is pressed or not, the input handler will treat it as if it's pressed.
You can make an input toggleable with this, for example: Let's say we want to be able to toggle l1 with t. You can then bind l1 to a key you won't use, like kpenter, then bind t to toggle that, so you will end up with this:

key_toggle = t, kpenter;
'analog_deadzone' = <device>, <value>, <value>;
Values go from 1 to 127 (no deadzone to max deadzone), first is the inner, second is the outer deadzone
If you only want inner or outer deadzone, set the other to 1 or 127, respectively
Devices: leftjoystick, rightjoystick, l2, r2)";
This sets the deadzone range for various inputs. The first value is the minimum deadzone while the second is the maximum. Values go from 1 to 127 (no deadzone to max deadzone).
If you only want a minimum or maximum deadzone, set the other value to 1 or 127 respectively.
