Tip
You might want to continue reading on our documentation space, all inline links will be working there.
This is the documentation for the Hiveeyes Arduino repository of the Hiveeyes project, a beehive monitoring system. Enjoy reading!
All Arduino Core based firmware source code is living here. We support different hardware, so there are different flavors of the firmware, reflected by the directory naming convention <purpose>-<transport>-<protocol>
. There are firmwares for ATmega328 and ESP8266 MCUs.
purpose
role name, either node or gatewaytransport
name of the physical transport mechanism, e.g. rfm69, gprs or wifi.protocol
name of the transmission protocol, e.g. beradio, mqtt, http or any.
Most programs use Arduino-Makefile for building while there are still some based on Ino.
bash
Get source code with all dependency libraries and tools:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/hiveeyes/arduino
If you want to use the Arduino IDE, you have to install all necessary libraries manually. The sources of the libraries can be found in the header of each sketch (.ino). In this case, copy the desired sketch into your Arduino IDE and pick the appropriate libraries from the libraries/
folder.
apt-get install arduino-core
- aur/arduino 1:1.6.8
- community/avr-libc
For operative tasks like compiling, Arduino-Makefile is in the loop.
cd node-gprs-any
make --file Makefile-Linux.mk
After a successful build, find the firmware at bin/node-gprs-any/pro328/node-gprs-any.hex
.
To build a firmware hex file, upload it to the MCU and finally start a serial port monitor, do:
cd generic
# Prepare appropriate Makefile (use Makefile-OSX.mk on OSX)
ln -s Makefile-Linux.mk Makefile
# Compile and upload to chip
make upload
# Run serial port monitor
make monitor
