Run RAM/ROM report and dtsh #71

Closed rijesha closed 4 days ago

rijesha commented 1 week ago

@DBS06 had the following request:

Maybe it is a dump question, but is it possible to run custom tasks inside a "Zephyr IDE terminal"? Because somehow, I am not able to run i.e. west build [...] from a task or start the zephyr virtual env. I need to do this to run renode from vscode and I want to run a build task prior to start renode. Furthermore I created a task to get a ROM and RAM Report, right now I am using a workaround to avoid using the west command, but it would be nice to run it. The RAM/ROM report could be a very useful feature for Zephyr-IDE. Sadly I am not familiar with Typescript, because otherwise I would add this feature an create a PR.

Btw: You guys have done a really good job with this extension and I am really thankful!!!

Edit: I used a freestanding application and with this configuration it does not work well, but nevertheless I am using a workspace configuration now

I had this problem with a freestanding application, with Zephyr integrated in the project folder (external/zephyr), I had no problem with it.

Besides the RAM/ROM Report, I also created a task for dtsh to get the device tree nicely visualized on the terminal. Somehow I am not able to use the Nordic -Devicetree vscode extension without the nRF-Connect-SDK.

What is the command you would use for dtsh?

rijesha commented 1 week ago

The IDE could install dtsh when dealing with the python environment and start it for the current build. Ill look into that.

I added a dtsh command as well.

I think the tasks should already run in the default terminal. See here https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/terminal/profiles#_configuring-the-taskdebug-profile. What is in your settings.json file for the default terminal profile. Mine says: "terminal.integrated.defaultProfile.windows": "Zephyr IDE Terminal"

Thanks a lot!
