Build information

Build flags

• Consult layers/meta-resin/README.md for info on various build flags (setting up serial console support for example) and build prerequisites. Build flags can be set by using the build script (barys) or by manually modifying local.conf.

See below for using the build script.

Build this repository

• Run the build script: ./balena-yocto-scripts/build/barys

For a development image with a console, use the "-d" flag as in:

./balena-yocto-scripts/build/barys -d

• You can also run barys with the -h switch to inspect the available options

Custom build using this repository

• Run the build script in dry run mode to setup an empty build directory ./balena-yocto-scripts/build/barys --remove-build --dry-run

• Edit the local.conf in the build/conf directory

• Prepare build's shell environment source layers/poky/oe-init-build-env

• Run "MACHINE= bitbake resin-image" (see message outputted when you sourced above for examples)
