Is there a command line tool for managing the CMSIS packs ? #1089

Closed fred-r closed 3 years ago

Hi,

I can easily trigger the pack manager tool by doing something like: start ${PackFile}

What I would like to do is 2 things:

  1. Install a CMSIS pack in my CMSIS_PACK_ROOT without opening the pack manager UI : I am looking for a cli.

  2. Manage my local packs with a cli. Today, in the pack manager UI, I can click on: 'File->Manage Local Repositories...' Then I canindicate a "local pack" so basically a folder with a pdsc file and the appropriate files.

What i'd like to do is to add a local repository thanks to a cli without using the UI.

Thanks & Regards, Fred

Hi @flit,

I cloned the cmsis-pack-manager github and did: pip install cmsis-pack-manager

Then I tried: python pack_manager.py

But this does not display any help and the documentation link seems to be broken.

Is it the proper way of using the pack manager ? (I see there are commands and subcommands but at the moment I do not know how to launch it, even the help text is not displayed).

Probably my way of calling the tool is very wrong ?

Thanks & Regards, Fred

You might want to consider posting questions for cmsis-pack-manager to the according GitHub repo, i.e. https://github.com/pyocd/cmsis-pack-manager/issues.
