This is a work-in-progress port to Rust for Tock Loader.

Please use the original Python version of TockLoader.

Adding support for a new board

If you want to add support for a new board, you have 3 options:

1. Implement support for the bootloader for your board. For this, please see the tock-bootloader repo for more details.

   Note: this approach will limit you to use the bootloader for all operations (using the --serial flag).

2. Add support for your board in probe-rs. This should be a straight-forward process if a CMSIS packs is available for your board.
3. Implement a custom debug probe for your board. This is the most complex option, but it will give you the most flexibility:
   • First, add your debug probe to the Connect enum in tockloader-lib/src/connection.rs.
   • Then, implement each command individually. There is no predefined interface for this, as debug probes can be very different from each other. You can take a look at the existing implementations for inspiration, and feel free to contact us if you need help.
