How to setup an Yocto recipe to build from a local git source?

问题

Hej

I am playing a bit around with Yocto, a Raspberry Pi and some code I wrote. Now I want that Yocto is building an image including the program I wrote. I like to know how to setup the fetcher to fetch from a local git repro.

My setup is simple. The code is in the directory:

/home/user/git/myTest

I linked the directory into my recipe directory of my Yocto meta-layer.

/home/user/poky/meta-test/myApp/myTest

Because it is a local git repro, there is the ".git" folder.

/home/user/git/myTest/.git

There are more files:

/home/user/git/myTest/CMakeLists.txt
/home/user/git/myTest/src/main.cpp
/home/user/git/myTest/src/...

I like to know how to setup my recipe to use the git fetcher:

SUMMARY = "test"
SECTION = "app"
LICENSE = "CLOSED"

inherit cmake

SRCREV = "${AUTOREV}"

SRC_URI = "git://.git"

S = "${WORKDIR}/git"

I did check the Yocto/Bitbake documentation. But I did not find an example how to do it. Any ideas?

回答1:

GIT Fetcher in bitbake supports different protocols but with rather peculiar and non-standard syntax. In your case it should be something like

SRC_URI = "git:///home/user/git/myTest/;protocol=file"

回答2:

Like below, you can access from local,

SRC_URI = "git:///home/path.git; file:defconfig"

It will access the respective local file.
