developer-information


I'm a developer, is there any technical info available from the PLi® team?

Welcome and tell your developer friends about us


Yes and welcome aboard! If you have specific question, you can use our PLi® Third Party Development forum to ask it. You will find we are most accommodating.

This page is about software development using OpenEmbedded-core. If you're looking for the text that used to be on the this page, it's now called developer-information-old.

Create your own build

Basically, it boils down to this:

Run Linux. Most of use use the latest Ubuntu desktop release, I suggest you do the same if you don't know what to pick.

Install prerquisite packages, as described here: http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/OEandYourDistro
For Ubuntu, that's:

sudo apt-get install sed wget cvs subversion git-core \
   coreutils unzip texi2html texinfo docbook-utils \
   gawk python-pysqlite2 diffstat help2man make gcc build-essential g++ \
   desktop-file-utils chrpath


Clone the openpli repository:
git clone git:...

Setup the environment
cd openpli-oe-core
MACHINE=xxXXXX make

Build your first image
MACHINE=xxXXXX make image
