Build the Project
=================
Build the project by running:
.. code-block :: batch
idf.py build
2023-07-11 03:03:50 -04:00
This command compiles the application and all ESP-IDF components, then it generates the bootloader, partition table, and application binaries.
2022-02-14 05:17:08 -05:00
.. code-block :: none
$ idf.py build
Running cmake in directory /path/to/hello_world/build

[527/527] Generating hello_world.bin
esptool.py v2.3.1
Project build complete. To flash, run this command:
../../../components/esptool_py/esptool/esptool.py -p (PORT) -b 921600 write_flash --flash_mode dio --flash_size detect --flash_freq 40m 0x10000 build/hello_world.bin build 0x1000 build/bootloader/bootloader.bin 0x8000 build/partition_table/partition-table.bin
or run 'idf.py -p PORT flash'
2023-07-11 03:03:50 -04:00
If there are no errors, the build finishes by generating the firmware binary .bin files.

Flash onto the Device
=====================
2022-07-11 07:36:10 -04:00
To flash the binaries that you just built for the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} in the previous step, you need to run the following command:
2022-02-14 05:17:08 -05:00
.. code-block :: bash
2022-07-11 07:36:10 -04:00
idf.py -p PORT flash
2022-02-14 05:17:08 -05:00
2022-07-11 07:36:10 -04:00
Replace `` PORT `` with your {IDF_TARGET_NAME} board's USB port name. If the `` PORT `` is not defined, the :ref: `idf.py` will try to connect automatically using the available USB ports.
2022-02-14 05:17:08 -05:00
2022-07-11 07:36:10 -04:00
For more information on `` idf.py `` arguments, see :ref: `idf.py` .
2022-02-14 05:17:08 -05:00
.. note ::
The option `` flash `` automatically builds and flashes the project, so running `` idf.py build `` is not necessary.
2022-07-11 07:36:10 -04:00
Encountered Issues While Flashing? See this :doc: `flashing-troubleshooting` page or :doc: `establish-serial-connection` for more detailed information.

If there are no issues by the end of the flash process, the board will reboot and start up the “hello_world” application.
2023-07-11 03:03:50 -04:00
If you would like to use the Eclipse or VS Code IDE instead of running `` idf.py `` , check out `Eclipse Plugin <https://github.com/espressif/idf-eclipse-plugin/blob/master/README.md> `_ , `VSCode Extension <https://github.com/espressif/vscode-esp-idf-extension/blob/master/docs/tutorial/install.md> `_ .

Monitor the Output
==================
To check if "hello_world" is indeed running, type `` idf.py -p PORT monitor `` (Do not forget to replace PORT with your serial port name).
This command launches the :doc: `IDF Monitor <../api-guides/tools/idf-monitor>` application::

If IDF monitor fails shortly after the upload, or, if instead of the messages above, you see random garbage similar to what is given below, your board is likely using a 26 MHz crystal. Most development board designs use 40 MHz, so ESP-IDF uses this frequency as a default value.
.. figure :: ../../_static/get-started-garbled-output.png
:align: center
:alt: Garbled output
:figclass: align-center
If you have such a problem, do the following:
1. Exit the monitor.
2022-07-12 23:24:04 -04:00
2. Go back to `` menuconfig `` .
3. Go to `` Component config `` --> `` Hardware Settings `` --> `` Main XTAL Config `` --> `` Main XTAL frequency `` , then change :ref: `CONFIG_XTAL_FREQ_SEL` to 26 MHz.
4. After that, `` build and flash `` the application again.
In the current version of ESP-IDF, main XTAL frequencies supported by {IDF_TARGET_NAME} are as follows:
.. list ::
:SOC_XTAL_SUPPORT_24M: - 24 MHz
:SOC_XTAL_SUPPORT_26M: - 26 MHz
:SOC_XTAL_SUPPORT_32M: - 32 MHz
:SOC_XTAL_SUPPORT_40M: - 40 MHz
2022-02-14 05:17:08 -05:00
.. note ::
You can combine building, flashing and monitoring into one step by running::
idf.py -p PORT flash monitor
See also:
- :doc: `IDF Monitor <../api-guides/tools/idf-monitor>` for handy shortcuts and more details on using IDF monitor.
- :ref: `idf.py` for a full reference of `` idf.py `` commands and options.
2023-07-11 03:03:50 -04:00
**That is all that you need to get started with {IDF_TARGET_NAME}!**
2022-02-14 05:17:08 -05:00
Now you are ready to try some other :idf: `examples` , or go straight to developing your own applications.
.. important ::
Some of examples do not support {IDF_TARGET_NAME} because required hardware is not included in {IDF_TARGET_NAME} so it cannot be supported.
If building an example, please check the README file for the `` Supported Targets `` table. If this is present including {IDF_TARGET_NAME} target, or the table does not exist at all, the example will work on {IDF_TARGET_NAME}.
Additional Tips
===============
Permission issues /dev/ttyUSB0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
With some Linux distributions, you may get the `` Failed to open port /dev/ttyUSB0 `` error message when flashing the {IDF_TARGET_NAME}. :ref: `This can be solved by adding the current user to the dialout group<linux-dialout-group>` .
Python compatibility
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2022-03-03 22:26:41 -05:00
ESP-IDF supports Python 3.7 or newer. It is recommended to upgrade your operating system to a recent version satisfying this requirement. Other options include the installation of Python from `sources <https://www.python.org/downloads/> `_ or the use of a Python version management system such as `pyenv <https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv> `_ .

Start with Board Support Package
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To speed up prototyping on some development boards, you can use `Board Support Packages (BSPs) <https://github.com/espressif/esp-bsp> `_ , which makes initialization of a particular board as easy as few function calls.
A BSP typically supports all of the hardware components provided on development board. Apart from the pinout definition and initialization functions, a BSP ships with drivers for the external components such as sensors, displays, audio codecs etc.

The BSPs are distributed via :doc: `IDF Component Manager </api-guides/tools/idf-component-manager>` , so they can be found in `IDF Component Registry <https://components.espressif.com> `_ .

Flash Erase
~~~~~~~~~~~
Erasing the flash is also possible. To erase the entire flash memory you can run the following command:
.. code-block :: bash
idf.py -p PORT erase-flash
For erasing the OTA data, if present, you can run this command:
.. code-block :: bash
idf.py -p PORT erase-otadata
The flash erase command can take a while to be done. Do not disconnect your device while the flash erasing is in progress.
