Hacking#

For hacking on the repository, there are some guidelines.

Initialize a new firmware flavour#

The following steps are needed to initialize a new project inside the multi-variant firmware repository:

# Create new project directory following the naming convention.
mkdir -p origin/purpose-transport-protocol

# Initialize project directory by bootstrapping from another project.
cp backdoor/node-wifi-mqtt/{Makefile,platformio.ini} origin/purpose-transport-protocol/

Simulation#

There are some ways to simulate the MCU code on your workstation.

Run on Unix#

cd backdoor/multihop

# Build arch=x86_64, not Arduino
./sim/build

# Receive data on localhost:4000 (TCP)
socat tcp-listen:4000,reuseaddr -

# Run "generic" program on local workstation, it
# will send data to localhost:4000 through RH_TCP.
./sim/multihop

file ./sim/multihop
sim/generic: Mach-O 64-bit x86_64 executable

Run in SimulAVR#

cd libraries/BERadio/examples/message

# Edit Makefile and enable line "include Makefile-SimulAVR.mk"

make sim-all
