# Tools directory for the RP2040 Arduino-Pico
|
|
|
|
## get.py
|
|
Downloads and installs the toolchain into a GIT clone of the repo. Run
|
|
once after the `git clone` and any time the toolchain JSON file updates.
|
|
The `dist` directory caches downloaded toolchain files.
|
|
|
|
## discovery.py
|
|
Run in the background by the IDE to scan for UF2 drives to show in the
|
|
menus. Normally not run manually by the user.
|
|
|
|
## uf2conv.py
|
|
Manages the upload of the UF2 formatted file to the board. Called as part
|
|
of the IDE upload process. Will optionally send the serial reset signal
|
|
to get the board into update mode (1200bps connection).
|
|
|
|
## simplesub.py
|
|
Very dumb `sed`-like tool used by the platform scripts to generate the
|
|
linker `.ld` file (replacing the EEPROM location, FS sizes, etc.).
|
|
Because we run on Windows, Mac, and Linux, need to provide this and not
|
|
rely on existence of `sed` command.
|
|
|
|
## pyserial
|
|
`git clone` of the PySerial Python3 library to be used by the IDE.
|
|
|
|
## makeboards.py
|
|
Generates `boards.txt` programmatically. Never edit the `boards.txt` file
|
|
manually, use `python3 tools/makeboards.py`. Change the script
|
|
as necessary to add any add'l fields or menus required. Used because the
|
|
`boards.txt` file is very repetitive and it's safer to generate with code
|
|
than by hand.
|
|
|
|
## makever.py
|
|
Updates the version info prior to a release in platform.txt, package.json,
|
|
and the version header. Run from root of the repo.
|
|
|
|
## libpico/make-libpico.sh
|
|
Builds the libpico.a file as well as the bootloader stage2 binaries.
|
|
Run whenever the pico-sdk is updated.
