Atom Override keybinding for PlatformIO

I'm using the PlatformIO package, and I want to override the shortcut that allows me to focus in and out of the embedded terminal. The default shortcut is ctrl + alt + f. I want to change it to esc.

I tried this in my keymap.cson:

'atom-text-editor':
  'esc': 'Platformio Ide Terminal: Focus'

I also tried with "escape" instead of "esc", but neither was able to override the default shortcut.

How do I accomplish this?

The correct key for Esc is esc, but more importantly, you need to use the correct command to focus. The following works, given that the terminal is visible.

'atom-text-editor':
  'escape': 'platformio-ide-terminal:focus'

To toggle and focus the terminal in one keystroke, you need to use "composed" commands. In that case, you can put something like the following into your init.coffee:

atom.commands.add "atom-workspace", "my-custom-toggle": ->
    activeEditor = atom.views.getView atom.workspace.getActiveTextEditor()

    pioTerminal = document.querySelector(".platformio-ide-terminal.terminal-view")
    parentNode = pioTerminal.parentNode if pioTerminal

    if !parentNode or parentNode.style.display is "none"
      atom.commands.dispatch(activeEditor, "platformio-ide-terminal:toggle")

    atom.commands.dispatch(activeEditor, "platformio-ide-terminal:focus")

And then you use that command in your keymap.cson:

'atom-text-editor':
  'escape': 'my-custom-toggle'
