Hi Santosh, Many of us have been on vacation, so I do not think we got back to you on your questions.
1. You can build any given recipe (custom or otherwise) in the Toaster interface from the Recipe pages. You can also do specific recipe tasks, as per Brian Avery’s Toaster email on Dec 12, 2016: “The syntax is recipe:task. so you could do something like bash:do_clean if you wanted to.” You cannot at this time use Toaster to create a custom recipe since that requires many individual and custom steps. The best way to do this is to (a) use the “devtool” to create the custom recipe, (b) fill in the SHA and deploy details with your editor, start building it with bitbake to find and correct the errors, and (d) when it is working place it in a custom layer and import it into Toaster. 2. This again is a very individual and custom process, so we do not at this time support this from Toaster. The command line is a better place to work out the kinks. 3. While this is not supported, this seems very interesting to me to do, having Toaster call “devtool” to deploy to a physical or QEMU-like target. Perhaps you could create an enhancement request in the Toaster Bugzilla describing exactly what you are look for. Perhaps you could even join us and help develop it for all to share! - David From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Santosh M N Sent: Tuesday, December 06, 2016 5:41 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Toaster] Toaster GUI Hello I have started using toaster recently and i find it very convincing. I just want to know if you guys are planning to provide the following features as well. 1. Provision for creating and building a single custom recipe file(.bb) within toaster. 2. Provision for creating a custom meta layer or a bsp layer from within toaster. 3. Provision for deploying the image onto the hardware by using toaster. thanks in advance, Santosh.
