# Building and flashing
1. Make sure you've got all of the submodules in this repo correctly initialised:
```
git submodule update --init --recursive
```
2. If this is your first time setting up the repo, then you will need to install
the ESP-IDF tools. You can consult the [ESP-IDF docs](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/get-started/linux-macos-setup.html)
for more detailed instructions, but the TL;DR is that you'll want to run
something like this:
```
./lib/esp-idf/install.sh esp32
```
3. As a final piece of setup, you will need to source the env file in this repo
to correctly set up your environment for building.
```
. ./.env
```
There is also a `.env.fish` for fish users.
4. You can now build the project using `idf.py build`. Or to flash the project
onto your board, something like:
```
idf.py -p /dev/serial/by-id/usb-cool_tech_zone_Tangara_* -b 1000000 flash
```
(give or take the correct serial port)
# Running tests
See `TESTING.md` for an overview of how to write and run our on-device test suite.
# VSCode setup
When using the Espressif IDF extension, you may want to set the following in your settings.json file:
```
"idf.espIdfPath": "${workspaceFolder}/lib/esp-idf",
"idf.espIdfPathWin": "${workspaceFolder}/lib/esp-idf"
```
# LSP (clangd) setup
A regular build will generate `build/compile_commands.json`, which clangd will
automatically pick up. However, there are a couple of additional steps to get
everything to play nicely.
First, create a `.clangd` file in the this directory, with contents like:
```
CompileFlags:
Add: [
-D__XTENSA__,
--target=mipsel-linux-gnu,
]
Remove: [
-fno-tree-switch-conversion,
-mlongcalls,
-fstrict-volatile-bitfields,
]
```
You may need to tweak the `target` flag until `clangd` is happy to build.
If you get errors involving missing C++ includes, then you may need to edit
your editor's LSP invocation to include `--query-driver=**`.
You should then get proper LSP integration via clangd.
# ESP-IDF configuration
Espressif exposes a large collection of configuration options[1] for its
framework; you can use `idf.py menuconfig` to generate a custom `sdkconfig`
file, eg. to change the logging level.
To avoid needing to select the same set of options every time you regenerate
the sdkconfig, you can also set some defaults in `sdkconfig.local`; this is not
tracked in git, and is ideal for local / per-checkout changes.
