Re: NuttX config browser
Hello Alan,
A suggestion: when the user click on the option it should be nice to
> see the Help for that option.
Sure, I will add a side pane.
Regarding online IDE. I was trying few times to switch to online
development. The problem is that to debug or even to connect to nsh, one
still needs local software and local copy of entire project. Which is
against the basic reason why we would like to develop online. It is also a
bit difficult to come up with own, custom online IDE. It is simply a lot of
work, for a team of people.
That being said I can easily imagine using existing online IDE to develop
NuttX project. It could be just described how to do it efficiently. For
example git repository can be cloned to GitLab and opened with their IDE.
Then binary comes from pipeline which can be flashed to the
microcontroller. Some simple client can be created which automates
flashing. Still the issue of debugging remains.
I will take a look at MBED and see how did they solve the issue.

Update on development of NuttX kconfig browser.
It is now possible to upload and display existing `.config` file.
What I am planning next is to provide more detail on each entry. Similar to what Zephyr does in it's Kconfig cross-reference
https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/reference/kconfig/index-drivers.html
We have the same type of information because I am using the same library.
Any suggestions how it could look are welcome.

See also http://nuttx.nl. I am using it for a long time already. Just know
that, when you want to debug for a hardvault, you still need Eclipse. So it
seems.

Posted by David Sidrane <Da...@nscdg.com>.
Hi Maciej,
Thank you for changes. This is a cool tool!
FYI: I did not realize it was a drag drop (until is inspected the node),
and tried clicking on it. It might be a good idea to add a open dialog
there.
Thank you,
David

Update on development of NuttX kconfig browser.
It is now possible to upload and display existing `.config` file.
[image: Screenshot from 2020-06-15 12-21-08.png]
What I am planning next is to provide more detail on each entry. Similar to
what Zephyr does in it's Kconfig cross-reference
https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/reference/kconfig/index-drivers.html
We have the same type of information because I am using the same library.
Any suggestions how it could look are welcome.

It would be great to also show dependencies, reverse-dependencies and allow

I should be able to do this. I could allow dropping of a file into the
browser and then it would filter the tree based on it. Also display values
next to every entry.
Is it what you have in mind? If not, could you describe how it should work?

Hello Alan,

Sure, I will add a side pane.
Regarding online IDE. I was trying few times to switch to online
development. The problem is that to debug or even to connect to nsh, one
still needs local software and local copy of entire project. Which is
against the basic reason why we would like to develop online. It is also a
bit difficult to come up with own, custom online IDE. It is simply a lot of
work, for a team of people.
That being said I can easily imagine using existing online IDE to develop
NuttX project. It could be just described how to do it efficiently. For
example git repository can be cloned to GitLab and opened with their IDE.
Then binary comes from pipeline which can be flashed to the
microcontroller. Some simple client can be created which automates
flashing. Still the issue of debugging remains.
I will take a look at MBED and see how did they solve the issue.

Regarding online IDE. I was trying few times to switch to online
development. The problem is that to debug or even to connect to nsh, one
still needs local software and local copy of entire project. Which is
against the basic reason why we would like to develop online. It is also a

That being said I can easily imagine using existing online IDE to develop

Then binary comes from pipeline which can be flashed to the

I will take a look at MBED and see how did they solve the issue.

About the NSH at least we could use Web Serial API:
https://wicg.github.io/serial/
I used Web Serial and Web Bluetooth few years ago to configure a
vehicle tracker powered by NuttX:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sX6h0y29MPE
At that time the Web Bluetooth wasn't supported natively by the web
browsers, now I think they have better support.
About the Debug we need to find a way, maybe using Web USB to create a
communication with ST-LinkV2 and/or J-Link:
https://wicg.github.io/webusb/

RE: NuttX config browser
Posted by Xiang Xiao <xi...@gmail.com>.
Yes, I switch from eclipse to vscode several month ago. The experience is much better than eclipse from many perspective(project, editor, search, debug, shell and git). It's a good idea to setup the new wiki page to describe how to setup vscode for NuttX development, so the community can try vscode and get the real feeling. Then we can get more idea how to improve vscode to simplify the setup and streamline the daily work experience. Maciej, could you create an initial vscode info at: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NUTTX? So we can share the vscode tip there.
Thanks
Xiang

Re: NuttX config browser

They released today mentioned IDE
https://os.mbed.com/blog/entry/mbed-studio-1-release
It is literally vscode with few plugins. We could go the same way and do
NuttX Studio :)
For the beginning I could just provide instructions on how to use vscode
with NuttX both for local and remote development.
I was already using vscode for NuttX development, for some time, and it has
good C/C++ support in comparison to other IDEs.
With such instructions, we can identify what are the main issues and try to
address them.
Also PlatformIO and Mbed Studio plugins might be open-source, then we could
just recommend them if they work or try to fork.

RE: NuttX config browser
Posted by Xiang Xiao <xi...@gmail.com>.
vscode may a good choice here:
https://code.visualstudio.com/
It is totally free, open source and run on macOS/Linux/Windows
Many 3rd party tool build around vscode(e.g. PlatformIO):
https://platformio.org/platformio-ide
And github announce a new IDE base on vscode recently:
https://github.com/features/codespaces/?utm_source=announcement&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=satellite-product-recap
The best thing is that online version has the full feature as the local version because vscode is built from JS, CSS, and HTML.
