Firmware (C++)

The FabScanPi Firmware is the software which is running on the FabScanPi HAT (or Arduino used by other setups).

Obtaining the code

Checkout the FabScanPi OS image build script sources from Git. The default branch is the master branch.

git clone https://github.com/mariolukas/FabScanPi-Firmware

Build with Arduino IDE

TODO.

Build with Arduino CLI

Install Docker

You will need to install and run docker on your development machine. Just download and install it from https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/

Then you need to install docker-compose. https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/

Run Build Process

Afterwards you can run the build process within a docker container, the docker container includes all the tools needed for building the firmware, even all needed Arduino libraries are pre-installed.

./build.sh

The script builds firmware (hex) files for all supported platforms (FabScanPi-HAT, Ciclop ZUM, Sanguinololu etc.). Those hex files are named by the platform and build date.

<platformname>_v.<yyyymmdd>.hex

The files are located in the folder build.
