Voxl-hexagon build.sh

[SHofmeester]

Hi,

I am at step 4 of "Build instructions" (https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/core-libs/libvoxl_io), where I need to use "./build.sh" in voxl-hexagon, but the following error is raised:

In step 3 of "Build instructions", it says to use "-p" after "voxl-docker -i voxl-hexagon", when opening voxl-hexagon. But when I type "voxl-docker -h" it isn't an option, so I opened voxl-hexagon without the "-p". Step 3 says to update the latest version, but I followed the steps from the Modalai docs and also downloaded it from the git-repository, but still no "-p".

Does it have to do with the "-p" or lies the problem elsewhere?

Thanks in advance

@SHofmeester I'll try this on my machine but the error it is showing is related to a missing file. That file should be there if the submodules were updated properly. Step 2 does this: git submodule update --init --recursive. What happened when you ran that step? What do you get if you run this command in the libvoxl_io top level directory?

libvoxl_io$ find . -name mavlink.h
./lib/c_library_v2/standard/mavlink.h
./lib/c_library_v2/ASLUAV/mavlink.h
./lib/c_library_v2/matrixpilot/mavlink.h

@SHofmeester I just tried the build with V1.1 of voxl-hexagon and it all worked for me. But you are correct, the -p option is not needed. We'll update the documentation. And after I downloaded V1.1 of voxl-hexagon from downloads.modalai.com I loaded it with docker load < ~/Downloads/voxl-hexagon_v1.1.tgz and then ran it with voxl-docker -i voxl-hexagon:V1.1.

@Eric-Katzfey Thank you for your reply.

I managed to get the same "find" results as you, by properly cloning the repository and using "git submodule update --init --recursive".

When I try to run build.sh in ~/git/libapq8096-io, the following error appears:

[Eric Katzfey]

@SHofmeester Something got corrupted. That can happen when you build, then make some changes to the structure of the build environment, then try to build again. Just delete everything, and start from scratch. Looks like we also just moved and changed the name of the repository which probably contributed to the error you saw. Here is the full output from what I just described:

@Eric-Katzfey Thank you for your help. I followed your steps and it worked immediately. I am now also able to generate the ipk-package and push it to the VOXL. When I use adb shell, the file appears in home/root/ipk.

I tried a few things, but I still have some questions:
How can I run the i2c related files from "libapq8096-io/lib/python" on the VOXL, for example voxl_i2c_scan.py?
Can I also make my own python scripts and run them?
