Introduction
This is the documentation for the Hiveeyes Arduino repository
_ of the Hiveeyes project
_,
a beehive monitoring system. Enjoy reading!
All Arduino Core based firmware source code is living here.
We support different hardware, so there are different flavors
of the firmware, reflected by the directory naming convention
<purpose>-<transport>-<protocol>
.
There are firmwares for ATmega328_ and ESP8266_ MCUs.
-
purpose
role name, either node or gateway -
transport
name of the physical transport mechanism, e.g. rfm69, gprs or wifi. -
protocol
name of the transmission protocol, e.g. beradio, mqtt, http or any.
Most programs use Arduino-Makefile
_ for building while there are still some based on Ino_.
Setup
.. highlight:: bash
Source code
Get source code with all dependency libraries and tools::
git clone --recursive https://github.com/hiveeyes/arduino
Toolchain
Arduino IDE
If you want to use the Arduino IDE, you have to install all necessary libraries manually.
The sources of the libraries can be found in the header of each sketch (.ino).
In this case, copy the desired sketch into your Arduino IDE and pick the appropriate
libraries from the libraries/
folder.

Debian packages
::
apt-get install arduino-core
Archlinux packages
- aur/arduino 1:1.6.8
- community/avr-libc
Mac OS X Homebrew packages
::
# GNU AVR Toolchain as formulae for Homebrew
# https://github.com/osx-cross/homebrew-avr
brew tap osx-cross/avr
brew install avr-gcc
::
# The Arduino HAL
brew cask install arduino
Operate
For operative tasks like compiling, Arduino-Makefile
_ is in the loop.
Compile
::
cd node-gprs-any
make --file Makefile-Linux.mk
After a successful build, find the firmware at bin/node-gprs-any/pro328/node-gprs-any.hex
.
Upload to MCU
To build a firmware hex file, upload it to the MCU and finally start a serial port monitor, do::
cd generic
# Prepare appropriate Makefile (use Makefile-OSX.mk on OSX)
ln -s Makefile-Linux.mk Makefile
# Compile and upload to chip
make upload
# Run serial port monitor
make monitor
