Pigweed Sample Project

This repository outlines the recommended way of using Pigweed in a new or existing project. Feel free to fork this repository, or read it as a reference.

For more information see the Pigweed Getting started guide

Check back for more complex examples and features coming soon!

Repository setup

The preferred method to add the Pigweed source is to use git submodules and place the Pigweed source repository in third_party/pigweed. If you forked this repository, don't forget to run git submodule init and git submodule update.

Environment Setup

The scripts bootstrap.bat for Windows, and bootstrap.sh for Unix systems call the respective Pigweed bootstrap scripts. Feel free to modify them to set up your development environment for the first time.

After the initial setup, use the activate.bat in Windows or activate.sh in Unix to enter the environment in a shell.

Banner

Make the project yours with your own banner. Create your own banner and place it in banner.txt.

Building

Generate the build files with gn gen out once, unless the build configuration has changed. Then, use ninja to build everything with ninja -C out.

The sample project examples have dependencies, each with some required build arguments. See the Arduino, and RPC sections for more setup information. The build arguments can be set with gn args out.

Sample Application

The sample application in source/main.cc uses the sample module simple_counter. Look at source/BUILD.gn and source/simple_counter/BUILD.gn to see how these are built respectively. The key part is in the root BUILD.gn, which creates the host target using the host toolchain. A toolchain is required for each target.

Build the project and run the application. ./out/host_clang_debug/obj/source/bin/hello_world

Sample Test

The simple_counter module has tests defined in source/simple_counter_tests.cc. Look at source/simple_counter/BUILD.gn for an example of how a test is defined. The root BUILD.gn groups all the host tests together.

Build the project and run the tests. ./out/host_clang_debug_tests/obj/source/simple_counter/test/simple_counter_test

Tokenized Logging

Log entries in the sample app are tokenized to save binary space. The included tokens database, source/tokenizer_database.csv, is updated on each build. See the Pigweed pw_tokenizer for more information.

Optionally, the database can be created manually using the binary or the .elf file. python -m pw_tokenizer.database create --database source/tokenizer_database.csv out/host_clang_debug/obj/source/bin/hello_world

Running the app shows log entries similiar to $kgjLdg==. These can be saved to a file and then detokenized.

python -m pw_tokenizer.detokenize base64 source/tokenizer_database.csv -i log.txt

Or can be detokenized in realtime. ./out/host_clang_debug/obj/source/bin/hello_world | python -m pw_tokenizer.detokenize base64 source/tokenizer_database.csv

Arduino Example

Follow the Pigweed pw_arduino module documentation to install the Arduino core software under third_party/piwgweed/third_party/arduino. There is an example application under source/arduino_example that uses the common utilities from Arduino.h.The source/arduino_example/BUILD.gn demonstrates how to include the arduino core dependencies. The sample application in source/main.cc can also be compiled for a supported Arduino board. The BUILD.gn shows how to create a target using the arduino toolchain. The source/target/arduino contains a sample toolchain that inherits from the an arduino toolchain in upstream pigweed. It can override backends as needed.

To build for a Teensy 3.1 board simply run the following.

gn gen out --args="arduino_board=\"teensy31\"\
    dir_pw_third_party_arduino=\"//third_party/pigweed/third_party/arduino\""
ninja -C out

RPC Example

The sample project uses nanopb for its pw_rpc dependency. The nanopb repo is conviniently included as a git submodule. This installation can be overridden following the instructions in third_party/pigweed/third_party/nanopb/BUILD.gn. Then set dir_pw_third_party_nanopb to the new installation location when building. For example: gn gen out --args="dir_pw_third_party_nanopb=\"third_party/nanopb\""

The sample application registers the EchoService, which echoes any RPC message data sent to it. To test it out build for and flash the desired board, then run: python third_party/pigweed/pw_hdlc_lite/rpc_example/example_script.py --device /dev/ttyACM0 --baud 115200.

At the time of writing, the example_script.py does not parse log statements if they are not framed in the HDLC protocol used by RPC. There is ongoing work on an RPC log service that will handle sending logs in HDLC frames to an RPC channel. In addition, the sample application uses tokenized logging, which means that logs need to be detokenized after the RPC HDLC frames are decoded on the host side. To do that flash the hello_word application and use two terminals to parse RPCs and detokenize logs respectively.

Terminal 1: receive RPCs.

source activate.sh
python -m pw_hdlc_lite.rpc_console -o logfile.txt -d /dev/ttyACM0 ./third_party/pigweed/pw_rpc/pw_rpc_protos/echo.proto

Test Echo RPC: rpcs.pw.rpc.EchoService.Echo(msg="hola")

Terminal 2: decode the logfile.

source activate.sh
tail -f logfile.txt | python -m pw_tokenizer.detokenize base64 source/tokenizer_database.csv
