Note

The provided links below always point to the latest release. To build a different release you need to manually build the matching SDK by running

$ scotty --manifest-revision=/refs/tags/<version> update
$ scotty build simplecore-simpleswitch-sdk -c populate_sdk
$ cd build/tmp/deploy/sdk

We strongly recommend to always use the latest release. Further info can be found in the documentation about Scotty.

Registration

If you want to test SimpleCore™, SimpleSwitch™ or any of our packages from our SimpleCore™ incubator program, please register here and we will grant you access.

Install the SDK#

Once you downloaded the archive, please unpack it into a destination of your choice. From this destination open a terminal window and run

$ ./*.sh

and follow the on-screen instructions. You maybe need sudo permissions depending on the installation path you choose during the setup.

Source the SDK#

To activate the installed SDK, you need to run (assuming you installed the SDK into /opt)

  • qemux86-64
  • sm2s-intel-all
  • sm2s-imx8nano
  • sm2s-imx8mini
  • sm2s-imx8plus
$ . /opt/sc/0.1.0/qemux86-64/environment-setup-*

$ . /opt/sc/0.1.0/sm2s-intel-all/environment-setup-*

$ . /opt/sc/0.1.0/sm2s-imx8nano/environment-setup-*

$ . /opt/sc/0.1.0/sm2s-imx8mini/environment-setup-*

$ . /opt/sc/0.1.0/sm2s-imx8plus/environment-setup-*

Important hint

The SDK will only remain active as long as the terminal session exists. If you close the window, the SDK will become inactive again

Update the SDK#

To update the SDK, simply remove the previous installation directory and run the new installer. If you installed the previous version at /opt/sc/2023.6/sm2s-imx8plus simply run

$ sudo rm -r /opt/sc/2023.6/sm2s-imx8plus
$ ./*.sh

Use the SDK from a Docker container#

To download the repository, you need to login first, using the following command:

$ docker login -u "USER_NAME" -p "PAT" "ghcr.io/avnet-embedded/simpleswitch-sdk/"

Note

Use your GHCR credentials as described here: Github container registry (GHCR)

Then to retrieve the SDK, the folowing command can be used:

  • qemux86-64
  • sm2s-intel-all
  • sm2s-imx8nano
  • sm2s-imx8mini
  • sm2s-imx8plus
$ docker pull ghcr.io/avnet-embedded/simpleswitch-sdk/qemux86-64:latest

$ docker pull ghcr.io/avnet-embedded/simpleswitch-sdk/sm2s-intel-all:latest

$ docker pull ghcr.io/avnet-embedded/simpleswitch-sdk/sm2s-imx8nano:latest

$ docker pull ghcr.io/avnet-embedded/simpleswitch-sdk/sm2s-imx8mini:latest

$ docker pull ghcr.io/avnet-embedded/simpleswitch-sdk/sm2s-imx8plus:latest

Finally, to run the container, this command can be used:

  • qemux86-64
  • sm2s-intel-all
  • sm2s-imx8nano
  • sm2s-imx8mini
  • sm2s-imx8plus
$ docker run -it \
  --volume ${PWD}/build:/build \
  --volume ${HOME}/.simpleswitch:/home/user/.simpleswitch \
  --env "GITHUB_USERNAME=$GITHUB_USERNAME" \
  --env "GITHUB_TOKEN=$GITHUB_TOKEN" \
  --env "uid=$(id --user)" \
  --env "gid=$(id --group)" \
  ghcr.io/avnet-embedded/simpleswitch-sdk/qemux86-64:latest

$ docker run -it \
  --volume ${PWD}/build:/build \
  --volume ${HOME}/.simpleswitch:/home/user/.simpleswitch \
  --env "GITHUB_USERNAME=$GITHUB_USERNAME" \
  --env "GITHUB_TOKEN=$GITHUB_TOKEN" \
  --env "uid=$(id --user)" \
  --env "gid=$(id --group)" \
  ghcr.io/avnet-embedded/simpleswitch-sdk/sm2s-intel-all:latest

$ docker run -it \
  --volume ${PWD}/build:/build \
  --volume ${HOME}/.simpleswitch:/home/user/.simpleswitch \
  --env "GITHUB_USERNAME=$GITHUB_USERNAME" \
  --env "GITHUB_TOKEN=$GITHUB_TOKEN" \
  --env "uid=$(id --user)" \
  --env "gid=$(id --group)" \
  ghcr.io/avnet-embedded/simpleswitch-sdk/sm2s-imx8nano:latest

$ docker run -it \
  --volume ${PWD}/build:/build \
  --volume ${HOME}/.simpleswitch:/home/user/.simpleswitch \
  --env "GITHUB_USERNAME=$GITHUB_USERNAME" \
  --env "GITHUB_TOKEN=$GITHUB_TOKEN" \
  --env "uid=$(id --user)" \
  --env "gid=$(id --group)" \
  ghcr.io/avnet-embedded/simpleswitch-sdk/sm2s-imx8mini:latest

$ docker run -it \
  --volume ${PWD}/build:/build \
  --volume ${HOME}/.simpleswitch:/home/user/.simpleswitch \
  --env "GITHUB_USERNAME=$GITHUB_USERNAME" \
  --env "GITHUB_TOKEN=$GITHUB_TOKEN" \
  --env "uid=$(id --user)" \
  --env "gid=$(id --group)" \
  ghcr.io/avnet-embedded/simpleswitch-sdk/sm2s-imx8plus:latest

Note

This will create a folder build in your current working directory, that shares the files between the docker container and your host installation
