# Zephyr Example Application
|
|
|
|
This repository contains a Zephyr example application. The main purpose of this
|
|
repository is to serve as a reference on how to structure Zephyr-based
|
|
applications. Some of the features demonstrated in this example are:
|
|
|
|
- Basic [Zephyr application][app_dev] skeleton
|
|
- [Zephyr workspace applications][workspace_app]
|
|
- [Zephyr modules][modules]
|
|
- [West T2 topology][west_t2]
|
|
- [Custom boards][board_porting]
|
|
- Custom [devicetree bindings][bindings]
|
|
- Out-of-tree [drivers][drivers]
|
|
- Out-of-tree libraries
|
|
- Example CI configuration (using Github Actions)
|
|
- Custom [west extension][west_ext]
|
|
|
|
This repository is versioned together with the [Zephyr main tree][zephyr]. This
|
|
means that every time that Zephyr is tagged, this repository is tagged as well
|
|
with the same version number, and the [manifest](west.yml) entry for `zephyr`
|
|
will point to the corresponding Zephyr tag. For example, the `example-application`
|
|
v2.6.0 will point to Zephyr v2.6.0. Note that the `main` branch always
|
|
points to the development branch of Zephyr, also `main`.

## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
Before getting started, make sure you have a proper Zephyr development
|
|
environment. Follow the official
|
|
[Zephyr Getting Started Guide](https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/getting_started/index.html).
|
|
|
|
### Initialization
|
|
|
|
The first step is to initialize the workspace folder (``my-workspace``) where
|
|
the ``example-application`` and all Zephyr modules will be cloned. Run the following
|
|
command:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
# initialize my-workspace for the example-application (main branch)
|
|
west init -m https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/example-application --mr main my-workspace
|
|
# update Zephyr modules
|
|
cd my-workspace
|
|
west update
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Building and running
|
|
|
|
To build the application, run the following command:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
cd example-application
|
|
west build -b $BOARD app
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where `$BOARD` is the target board.
|
|
|
|
You can use the `custom_plank` board found in this
|
|
repository. Note that Zephyr sample boards may be used if an
|
|
appropriate overlay is provided (see `app/boards`).
|
|
|
|
A sample debug configuration is also provided. To apply it, run the following
|
|
command:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
west build -b $BOARD app -- -DOVERLAY_CONFIG=debug.conf
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once you have built the application, run the following command to flash it:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
west flash
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Testing
|
|
|
|
To execute Twister integration tests, run the following command:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
west twister -T tests --integration
|
|
```
|
