vives-projectwerk-2021 / pulu-main-firmware

Main program of the firmware for the pulu project

Pulu Main Firmware

Setup

LoRaWAN indoor gateway

Follow the steps from the online documentation.

Compile

Pulu Firmware Builder (faster and preferred)

The first time docker will pull pulu-firmware-builder. (2.3GB)

Building the firmware without version tags (defaults to latest)

make

Building the firmware with version tags for the firmware and/or firmware-builder

make VERSION=1.0.0 BUILDER_VERSION=1.1.0

Mbed CLI (Windows only)

Use the mbed_installer which can be found here. (At the moment of developing, we used the most recent version 0.4.10)

We used conda as an environment management system to separate the dependencies of this project.

conda create --name projectwerk python=3.7
conda activate projectwerk
pip install mbed-cli

When having troubles with the GCC_ARM compiler, make sure you are using a version between 9 and 10.
We used 9-2019-q4-major as compiler.
