Errors in apio build on examples #348

Closed znmeb closed 3 months ago

znmeb commented 4 months ago

I'm using the directions at https://pico-ice.tinyvision.ai/md_programming_the_fpga.html#autotoc_md35 and trying to build the iCE40-UP5K examples. The host is Windows Subsystem for Linux Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. See the attached script and log file.

What am I missing?

apio-errors.zip

znmeb commented 4 months ago

I found it - the directions are probably outdated. They're installing apio from a GitHub repo rather than from PyPI. If I just do pip install --upgrade apio, it works.

apio-working.zip

You can close this - I'll open an issue over on the pico-ice repository.

They are installing the apio development version (because at that time their board was not supported in apio stable). But now it is supported in the stable version (from pypi)

The current development version has new changes that break some examples. I am currently adapting all the examples to this new version.

I will close this issue when i test all the examples

znmeb commented 4 months ago

OK ... sounds good to me.

Obijuan commented 3 months ago

@znmeb From apio 0.0.9 the top module should be included in the apio.ini file (the project file). By default the top module is main In this example the top module is "rgb_test".

In order to work ok, you should change this command:

apio init --sayyes --board pico-ice

by this one:

apio init --sayyes --board pico-ice --top-module rgb_test

(or change the top module of the verilog file from rgb_tst to main)

I will close this issue. It would be great to include this example directly for the pico-ice board

In this link you can find the instructions on how to add new examples in apio . Pull request are very welcome
