| # Matter BEE4 Lighting Example Application |
| |
| This reference application implements an On/Off Light device type. You can use |
| this example as a reference for creating your own application. |
| |
| The example is based on: |
| |
| - [Matter](https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip) |
| - [BEE4 github SDK](https://github.com/rtkconnectivity/rtl87x2g_sdk) |
| - [OT-REALTEK](https://github.com/rtkconnectivity/ot-realtek) |
| |
| ## Supported devices |
| |
| - [RTL8777G] |
| |
| ## Introduction |
| |
| The application showcases a light bulb device that communicates with clients |
| over a low-power, 802.15.4 Thread network. |
| |
| It can be commissioned into an existing Matter network using a controller such |
| as `chip-tool`. |
| |
| This example implements a `Standard commissioning flow`, meaning devices not |
| connected to the network automatically broadcast advertising when powered on. |
| The initial commissioning is done through `ble-thread` pairing method. |
| |
| The Thread network dataset will be transferred on the device using a secure |
| session over Bluetooth LE.To pair successfully, the commissioner must know the |
| commissioning information corresponding to the device: setup passcode and |
| discriminator. This data is usually encoded within a QR code or printed to the |
| UART console. |
| |
| ## Prerequisites for building |
| |
| In order to build the example, it is recommended to use a Linux distribution. |
| Please visit the supported Operating Systems list in |
| [BUILDING.md](../../../../docs/guides/BUILDING.md#prerequisites). |
| |
| - Make sure that below prerequisites are correctly installed (as described in |
| [BUILDING.md](../../../../docs/guides/BUILDING.md#prerequisites)) |
| |
| ``` |
| sudo apt-get install git gcc g++ pkg-config libssl-dev libdbus-1-dev libglib2.0-dev libavahi-client-dev ninja-build python3-venv python3-dev python3-pip unzip libgirepository1.0-dev libcairo2-dev libreadline-dev |
| ``` |
| |
| - Step 1: checkout Realtek specific submodules only |
| |
| ```bash |
| $ scripts/checkout_submodules.py --shallow --platform realtek --recursive |
| ``` |
| |
| - Step 1: Init REALTEK SDK |
| |
| ```bash |
| $ git submodule update --init --recursive third_party/openthread/ot-realtek |
| ``` |
| |
| - Step 3: activate local environment |
| |
| ```bash |
| $ source ./scripts/activate.sh |
| ``` |
| |
| If the script says the environment is out of date, you can update it by |
| running the following command: |
| |
| ```bash |
| $ source ./scripts/bootstrap.sh |
| ``` |
| |
| ## Building |
| |
| - To build the demo application: |
| |
| ```bash |
| $ ./scripts/build/build_examples.py --target realtek-rtl8777g-window build |
| ``` |
| |
| You can find the target built file called **matter-cli-mtd** under the |
| `out/realtek-rtl8777g-window/bin` directory. |
