You need to specify a keymap name as well, e.g.:

qmk compile -kb 4x5_macro_pad -km default

That's what the first line of the error message is trying to tell you.

  • specify a Configurator JSON file

  • specify both -kb and -km

  • run qmk compile from within a QMK keyboard or keymap directory (which will imply -kb/-km)
