Goal

Blinky introduces the basics of building, flashing and checking log output. The instructions here will be the same for each exercise and binary to be flashed.

Build and Flash

Instructions for building with a teensy40 board.

  1. Create the out build directory if needed.

    gn gen out --export-compile-commands --args='
        pw_arduino_build_CORE_PATH="//third_party/pigweed/third_party/arduino/cores"
        pw_arduino_build_CORE_NAME="teensy"
        pw_arduino_build_PACKAGE_NAME = "teensy/avr"
        pw_arduino_build_BOARD="teensy40"
        pw_arduino_use_test_server=false
    '
    
  2. Run the compile with pw watch or ninja -C out.

  3. Flash blinky.elf.

    Teensy

    arduino_unit_test_runner --verbose --config out/arduino_debug/gen/arduino_builder_config.json --upload-tool teensyloader --flash-only out/arduino_debug/obj/workshop/01-blinky/bin/blinky.elf
    

    stm32f429i_disc1

    openocd -s ${PW_PIGWEED_CIPD_INSTALL_DIR}/share/openocd/scripts -f ${PW_ROOT}/targets/stm32f429i_disc1/py/stm32f429i_disc1_utils/openocd_stm32f4xx.cfg -c "program out/stm32f429i_disc1_debug/obj/workshop/01-blinky/bin/blinky.elf reset exit"
    

View Plain Text Log Output

Note: This will only work when pw_log_BACKEND = "$dir_pw_log_basic" is set in //targets/common_backends.gni. The default is set to use tokenized logging over HDLC as shown below.

Tail the output with miniterm, (use Ctrl-] to quit).

python -m serial.tools.miniterm --raw - 115200

View HDLC Encoded Log Output

  1. Optional: Create / update the log token database. This will be automatically updated when compiling.

    python -m pw_tokenizer.database create --force --database workshop/01-blinky/tokenizer_database.csv out/arduino_debug/obj/workshop/01-blinky/bin/blinky.elf
    
  2. Start the rpc_console that saves log output to a file.

    python -m pw_hdlc.rpc_console -o logfile.txt -d /dev/ttyACM0 ./third_party/pigweed/pw_rpc/echo.proto
    
  3. Tail the log output.

    python -m pw_tokenizer.detokenize base64 workshop/01-blinky/tokenizer_database.csv -i logfile.txt --follow
