Prepare Build Environment

You can download and set up pre-built environments by using EnvDeploy as follows. Use -v to specify DSM version and -p to specify desired platform. If -p is not given, all available platforms for given version will be set up.

cd /toolkit/pkgscripts
./EnvDeploy -v 6.0 -p x64 # for example

Finally, the whole working directory will look like the following figure, and ds.${platform}-${version} is the chroot environment to build your own projects.

toolkit/
├── pkgscripts/
└── build_env/
    ├── ds.${platform}-${version}/
    ├── ...
    └── ds.${platform}-${version}/

Available Platforms

You can use one of following commands to show available platforms. If -v is not given, available platforms for all versions are listed.

./EnvDeploy -v {version} --list
./EnvDeploy -v {version} --info platform

Update Environment

Use EnvDeploy again to update your environments. For example, update x64 for DSM {{ book.ToolkitVersion }} by running the following command.

./EnvDeploy -v {version} -p x64

Remove Environment

Removing a building environment is very easy. First chroot to the building environment, umount the /proc folder and exit chroot. After that, remove the building environment folder. The following command illustrates how to remove a building environment with version 5.2 and platform x64.

chroot /toolkit/build_env/ds.x64-{version} umount /proc
rm -rf /toolkit/build_env/ds.x64-{version}
