### Build Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Run the following commands to install build tools required by the PiPedal build.
|
|
|
|
# install CMake
|
|
sudo apt updatee
|
|
sudo apt install -y cmake ninja-build build-essential g++ git
|
|
|
|
The PiPedal build process also requires version 12 or later of `node.js`. Type `node --version` to see if you have a version
|
|
of `node.js` installed already. Otherwise run the following commands as root to install the v14.x lts version of `node.js`:
|
|
`
|
|
sudo apt install nodejs npm curl
|
|
|
|
If your distribution doesn't provide a suitable version of nodejs, you can install the current LTS version of nodejs
|
|
with
|
|
|
|
# install NodeJS latest LTS release.
|
|
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_20.x | sudo -E bash -
|
|
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs npm
|
|
|
|
|
|
Run the following commands to install dependent libraries required by the PiPedal build.
|
|
|
|
sudo apt update
|
|
sudo apt install -y liblilv-dev libboost-dev \
|
|
libsystemd-dev catch libasound2-dev uuid-dev \
|
|
authbind libavahi-client-dev libnm-dev libicu-dev \
|
|
libsdbus-c++-dev libzip-dev google-perftools \
|
|
libgoogle-perftools-dev
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Installing Sources
|
|
|
|
If you are using Visual Studio Code, install the following Extensions:
|
|
|
|
- C/C++ Extension Pack (Microsoft).
|
|
- CMake Tools (Microsoft)
|
|
|
|
Clone the rerdavies/pipdal package from github. Use the source control tools from Visual Studio Code, or
|
|
|
|
cd ~/src # or whereever you keep your source repositories.
|
|
git clone https://github.com/rerdavies/pipedal.git
|
|
|
|
In the project root, run the following commands to initialze and update pipedal submodules. These steps
|
|
must be performed even if you used Visual Studio Code to initially install the project.
|
|
|
|
cd ~/src/pipedal
|
|
git submodule update --init --recursive
|
|
|
|
Run the following command to install and configure React dependencies.
|
|
|
|
cd ~/src/pipedal
|
|
./react-config # Configure React NPM dependencies.
|
|
|
|
And one final step. Edit the file `/etc/sysctl.conf`, and add or increase the value for the maximum number of watchable user
|
|
files:
|
|
|
|
fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288
|
|
|
|
Then run `sudo sysctl -p` to get the change to take effect. Visual Studio Code and the React Debug server both need this
|
|
setting to run properly. Older versions of Raspberry Pi OS set this value too low; and I am not honestly sure whether current
|
|
versions of Raspberry Pi OS have fixed the problem.
