ot-reference-release

Usage

Clone this repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/openthread/ot-reference-release

Initialize the submodules:

$ git submodule update --init --recursive

At the root of the repository:

$ REFERENCE_PLATFORM=(nrf52840|efr32mg12|ncs|none) REFERENCE_RELEASE_TYPE=(1.2|1.3|1.3.1)  [SD_CARD=/dev/...] [OTBR_RCP_BUS=(UART|SPI)] [IN_CHINA=(0|1)] [OTBR_RADIO_URL='spinel+hdlc+uart:///dev/ttyUSB0'] ./script/make-reference-release.bash

This will produce a reference release folder in ./build/. The folder will be named after the release type, date and the OpenThread commit id.

SD_CARD is expected to be the device file path of an SD card inserted to the host. If this variable is specified, the script will flash the Raspberry Pi image containing OpenThread border router service to the SD card.

If IN_CHINA is set to 1, the script will prefer to use apt sources based in China so that you can save time while installing software dependencies.

OTBR_RCP_BUS sets the RCP hardware interface type of Spinel on otbr-agent. If this variable is not specified, the interface type is set to UART by default.

OTBR_RADIO_URL sets the otbr-agent's radio URL. If this variable is not specified, the otbr-agent's argument is set to spinel+hdlc+uart:///dev/ttyACM0 by default.

For example, if you are in China and want to flash the built image to an SD card:

$ REFERENCE_PLATFORM=nrf52840 REFERENCE_RELEASE_TYPE=1.2 IN_CHINA=1 SD_CARD=/dev/sda ./script/make-reference-release.bash

When REFERENCE_RELEASE_TYPE is 1.2, reference release contains following components:

  • Raspberry Pi image containing OTBR service and OT Commissioner
  • Firmware
  • THCI
  • Change log
  • Quick start guide

When REFERENCE_RELEASE_TYPE is 1.3 or 1.3.1, reference release contains following components:

  • Raspberry Pi image containing OTBR service with border routing feature, service registry feature and OT Commissioner
  • Firmware
  • Change log
  • Quick start guide

Note: Currently, only the following boards are supported for CLI/RCP firmwares:

  • nRF52840 dongles
  • EFR32MG12 BRD4166A boards

If the REFERENCE_PLATFORM is set to none, the firmware won't be generated.
