# Building ArduPilot
|
|
|
|
Because building ArduPilot is a bit complicated, I've written a short script that uses Docker to build AP in a controlled environment.
|
|
|
|
Copy it from here, save it to a file called `docker_build.sh` in the root of the ArduPilot repo, and run it with `docker_build.sh <your board>`. Output files will be stored in `build/<yourboard>/bin/`, and you can flash them with the [INAV configurator](https://github.com/iNavFlight/inav-configurator/releases) by putting your board in DFU mode and uploading the `arduplane_with_bl.hex` file.
|
|
|
|
Here's the script:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
#!/usr/bin/env bash
|
|
|
|
set -euox pipefail
|
|
|
|
if [ $# -ne 1 ]
|
|
then
|
|
echo "No board supplied, run as ./docker_build.sh <board name> or ./docker_build.sh list"
|
|
exit 1
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
BOARD=$1
|
|
|
|
cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)"
|
|
|
|
git submodule update --init --recursive
|
|
|
|
git checkout Dockerfile
|
|
echo "RUN pip install intelhex" >> Dockerfile
|
|
echo 'ENV PATH="/home/ardupilot/.local/bin:/usr/lib/ccache:/ardupilot/Tools/autotest:${PATH}"' >> Dockerfile
|
|
cat Dockerfile
|
|
|
|
docker build . -t ardupilot
|
|
git checkout Dockerfile
|
|
|
|
# We need to update the PATH with the location of the ARM EABI inside the Docker
|
|
# container, so we write a script that handles this and the actual building.
|
|
cat <<EOF > undocker_build_temp.sh
|
|
#!/usr/bin/env bash
|
|
|
|
set -euox pipefail
|
|
|
|
export ARM_EABI=/opt/\$(ls -1 /opt/ | grep gcc-arm-none-eabi)/bin/
|
|
export PATH=\$ARM_EABI:\$PATH
|
|
|
|
./waf configure --board="\$1"
|
|
./waf build
|
|
EOF
|
|
|
|
chmod +x ./undocker_build_temp.sh
|
|
|
|
docker run --rm -it -v "$(pwd)":/ardupilot ardupilot ./undocker_build_temp.sh "$BOARD"
|
|
|
|
rm undocker_build_temp.sh
|
|
```
