# `app-template`
|
|
|
|
> Quickly set up a [`probe-run`] + [`defmt`] + [`flip-link`] embedded project
|
|
|
|
[`probe-run`]: https://crates.io/crates/probe-run
|
|
[`defmt`]: https://github.com/knurling-rs/defmt
|
|
[`flip-link`]: https://github.com/knurling-rs/flip-link
|
|
|
|
## Dependencies
|
|
|
|
#### 1. `flip-link`:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ cargo install flip-link
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### 2. The **git** version of `probe-run`:
|
|
|
|
<!-- TODO: update this once defmt is on crates.io? -->
|
|
``` console
|
|
$ cargo install \
|
|
--git https://github.com/knurling-rs/probe-run \
|
|
--branch main \
|
|
--features defmt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### 3. [`cargo-generate`]:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ cargo install cargo-generate
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
[`cargo-generate`]: https://crates.io/crates/cargo-generate
|
|
|
|
> *Note:* You can also just clone this repository instead of using `cargo-generate`, but this involves additional manual adjustments. [This flip-link CI patch](https://github.com/knurling-rs/flip-link/blob/main/.github/workflows/0001-configure-test-flip-link-app-for-nrf52840.patch) can serve as a reference on what to do.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
#### 1. Initialize the project template
|
|
|
|
``` console
|
|
$ cargo generate \
|
|
--git https://github.com/knurling-rs/app-template \
|
|
--branch main \
|
|
--name my-app
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you look into your new `my-app` folder, you'll find that there are a few `TODO`s in the files marking the properties you need to set.
|
|
|
|
Let's walk through them together now.
|
|
|
|
#### 2. Set `probe-run` chip
|
|
|
|
Pick a chip from `probe-run --list-chips` and enter it into `.cargo/config.toml`.
|
|
|
|
If, for example, you have a nRF52840 Development Kit from one of [our workshops], replace `{{chip}}` with `nRF52840_xxAA`.
|
|
|
|
[our workshops]: https://github.com/ferrous-systems/embedded-trainings-2020
|
|
|
|
``` diff
|
|
# .cargo/config.toml
|
|
[target.'cfg(all(target_arch = "arm", target_os = "none"))']
|
|
-runner = "probe-run --chip {{chip}} --defmt"
|
|
+runner = "probe-run --chip nRF52840_xxAA --defmt"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### 3. Adjust the compilation target
|
|
|
|
In `.cargo/config.toml`, pick the right compilation target for your board.
|
|
|
|
``` diff
|
|
# .cargo/config.toml
|
|
[build]
|
|
-target = "thumbv6m-none-eabi" # Cortex-M0 and Cortex-M0+
|
|
-# target = "thumbv7m-none-eabi" # Cortex-M3
|
|
-# target = "thumbv7em-none-eabi" # Cortex-M4 and Cortex-M7 (no FPU)
|
|
-# target = "thumbv7em-none-eabihf" # Cortex-M4F and Cortex-M7F (with FPU)
|
|
+target = "thumbv7em-none-eabihf" # Cortex-M4F (with FPU)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 4. Add a HAL as a dependency
|
|
|
|
In `Cargo.toml`, list the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) for your board as a dependency.
|
|
|
|
For the nRF52840 you'll want to use the [`nrf52840-hal`].
|
|
|
|
[`nrf52840-hal`]: https://crates.io/crates/nrf52840-hal
|
|
|
|
``` diff
|
|
# Cargo.toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
-# some-hal = "1.2.3"
|
|
+nrf52840-hal = "0.11.0"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### 5. Import your HAL
|
|
|
|
Now that you have selected a HAL fix the HAL import in `src/lib.rs`
|
|
|
|
``` diff
|
|
// my-app/src/lib.rs
|
|
-// use some_hal as _; // memory layout
|
|
+use nrf52840_hal as _; // memory layout
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### 6. run!
|
|
|
|
You are now all set to `cargo-run` your first `defmt`-powered application!
|
|
There are some examples in the `src/bin` directory.
|
|
|
|
Start by `cargo run`-ning `my-app/src/bin/hello.rs`:
|
|
|
|
``` console
|
|
$ # `rb` is an alias for `run --bin`
|
|
$ cargo rb hello
|
|
Finished dev [optimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.03s
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
$ echo $?
|
|
0
|
|
```
|
|
|
