Arduino-Core-Zephyr

Arduino Core API module for zephyr leverages the power of Zephyr under an Arduino-C++ style abtraction layer thus helping zephyr new-comers to start using it without worrying about learning about new APIs and libraries. Visit this project's official blog for documentation.

Pre-Requisites

• Clone ArduinoCore-API into a directory of your choice using

git clone git@github.com:arduino/ArduinoCore-API

• Currently WCharacter.h is causing errors while building and needs to be deleted from ArduinoAPI.h (it is unused in this port.) We are looking into resolving the issue.

Setup

• Navigate to zephyr root and edit the west.yml file and add the following under projects:

      # Arduino API repository.
    - name: Arduino-Core-Zephyr
      path: modules/lib/Arduino-Zephyr-API
      revision: main
      url: https://github.com/DhruvaG2000/Arduino-Core-Zephyr

• run west update to pull this repo to your local machine.
• Create a symlink to ArduinoCore-API/api in this repo's core/arduino folder using the command ln -s /home/$USER/Projects/ArduinoCore-API/api cores/arduino/.
• Copy the desired examples in zephyr/samples.
• To pristine build an arduino-blinky example use the command west build -p -b arduino_nano_33_ble samples/arduino-blinky.

Outdated instructions:

1. Clone this repo in zephyrproject/modules/lib
2. Create a symlink to ArduinoCore-API/api in this repo's core/arduino folder using the command ln -s /home/dhruva/Projects/ArduinoCore-API/api cores/arduino/.
3. Copy the desired examples in zephyre/samples.
4. For example, to build an arduino-blinky example use the command west build -p -b arduino_nano_33_ble samples/basic/arduino-blinky -DZEPHYR_EXTRA_MODULES=/home/$USER/zephyrproject/modules/lib/Arduino-Core-Zephyr
5. To flash the built firmware to the arduino nano ble sense 33, west flash --bossac=/home/$USER/.arduino15/packages/arduino/tools/bossac/1.9.1-arduino2/bossac. The path to bossac may vary according to your arduino IDE install location. You may choose to manually install and specify bossac as well.
