Apio configuration
Apio backend is configured in the app/package.json
file:
apio.min
: minimum version (>=)apio.max
: maximum version (<)apio.extras
: list of external Python programmers (blackiceprog, tinyfpgab)apio.external
: load an external Apio package instead of the default one (e.g. /path/to/my/apio)apio.branch
: install Apio from the repository branch instead of PyPI.
An external Apio package can be also set on runtime using the ICESTUDIO_APIO
environment variable.
Troubleshooting
If you get this error npm ERR! peerinvalid The package [email protected] does not satisfy its siblings' peerDependencies requirements!
, try to update your nodejs or execute:
npm update -g
