feature: option for build target #23

Closed mikep01 closed 6 years ago

mikep01 commented 7 years ago

"clean" appears to be the default. "all" and "flash" would be handy.

Something for the future...

Note that the default flash target was replaced in https://github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-firmware/pull/1442. Eventually it'll be dropped altogether as we (i.e. NodeMCU team) don't want to host our own copy of esptool.py.

@marcelstoer : Is it possible also to have option for getting the source of the firmware being built for that user. That is, if I have selected certain options to be built for me. Then I can also get the source code of those firmware. This could be of a benefit to both developer and newbie who wants to study the code or continue to further the development locally.

I tried the on nodemcu-build, got the bin files via my email but no source which I was also expecting. I know that the online system target non programmer/developer but it could be a very use tool for developers to a get a boiler template quickly and further the development locally.

Also it be a tool for studying the firmware step by step through selected options/features when source code of those option can be obtained. Many thanks for this tool.

Hear from you soon!

God blesses!!!

Best regards, Sanyaade

Wouldn't go well with the general direction this thing is moving -> closing

@sanyaade-iot you need the source as a basis for this Docker image to do anything, no source -> no binary. Hence, your request is implicitly fulfilled.
