<title>Introduction</title>

|

<para>
|
||||
Toaster is web interface to the OpenEmbedded build system, which uses
|
||||
BitBake.
|
||||
The interface allows you to access a datastore that retains build
|
||||
information and report out on the information.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<!--THE FOLLOWING IS DETAIL THAT I THINK BELEN WANTED OUT FOR THE MOMENT
|
||||
The interface is based on a Representational State Transfer
|
||||
(REST) API that queries for and returns build information using
|
||||
<filename>GET</filename> and <filename>JSON</filename>.
|
||||
These types of search operations retrieve sets of objects from
|
||||
a datastore used to collect build information.
|
||||
The results contain all the data for the objects being returned.
|
||||
You can order the results of the search by key and the search
|
||||
parameters are consistent for all object types.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
-->
|
||||
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
You can use Toaster in several different modes:
|
||||
<itemizedlist>
|
||||
<listitem><para><emphasis>Analysis Mode:</emphasis>
|
||||
In this mode, you can record builds and statistics.
|
||||
In Analysis Mode, you have direct access to the
|
||||
<filename>bitbake</filename> command, which you use to build
|
||||
images.</para>
|
||||
<para>Analysis Mode requires you to have first started
|
||||
Toaster and then to initiate your build using the
|
||||
<filename>bitbake</filename> command from the shell.
|
||||
Toaster must be started before the build or it will not
|
||||
collect build data.
|
||||
</para></listitem>
|
||||
<listitem><para><emphasis>Build Mode:</emphasis>
|
||||
In this mode, Toaster handles the build configuration GUI
|
||||
(through project pages) and build scheduling and execution.
|
||||
In this mode, all your interaction with the build system
|
||||
happens through the web interface.
|
||||
You do not have direct access to the
|
||||
<filename>bitbake</filename> command.</para>
|
||||
<para>Using this mode, you configure and start your builds
|
||||
with Toaster's GUI.
|
||||
Each configuration is a project, which requires version and
|
||||
build system selection.
|
||||
As shipped, Toaster supports the Yocto Project releases
|
||||
1.8 and beyond.
|
||||
Aside from these supported releases, you can also select
|
||||
the "Local Yocto Project", which allows you to use your
|
||||
local clone of the Yocto Project
|
||||
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#source-directory'>Source Directory</ulink>
|
||||
(e.g. <filename>poky</filename>).</para>
|
||||
<para>Build Mode also works two separate ways: locally and
|
||||
remotely.
|
||||
While you can use Build Mode locally, it is best to use
|
||||
Toaster's Build Mode through a hosted service where it can
|
||||
shared by multiple user.

|

Belen suggested we split this list out into things that
|
||||
Analysis Mode and Build Mode can do.
|
||||
Also, we can structure the lists so the Build Mode list
|
||||
leverages off what is listed for Analysis Mode.
|
||||
I do not know the information for the complete lists.
|

Someone needs to help me out here.

For now, I am leaving the list as follows and will need some

<title>Establishing Toaster System Dependencies</title>

|

<para>
|

Toaster requires extra Python dependencies that Bitbake

does not need in order to run.

In order to make it easy to run Toaster, a requirements file

located in the root directory of

Toaster requires extra Python dependencies and

<ulink url='http://www.libslack.org/daemon/'><filename>daemon</filename></ulink>
|

in order to run.
|
||||
A Toaster requirements file named
|

<filename>toaster-requirements.txt</filename> defines the
|
||||
Python dependencies.
|
||||
The requirements file is located in the

<title>Optionally Setting Up a Python Virtual Environment</title>

<para>
|

It is highly recommended that you use a Python virtual
|
||||
environment that allows you to maintain a dedicated Python
|
||||
executable and its own set of installed modules.
|
||||
Doing so separates the executable from the Python and modules
|
||||
provided by the operating system and therefore avoids any
|
||||
version conflicts.
|
||||

Follow these steps to set up your virtual environment.

<filename>virtualenv</filename> is a tool to create
|

isolated Python environments by creating folders that

contain all the necessary executables to use the packages
|

that Python projects need.
|
||||
You can use <filename>pip</filename> to install
|
||||
<filename>virtualenv</filename>:
|

Install the supported
|
||||
<filename>python-virtualenv</filename> package from your
|

distribution rather than using <filename>pip</filename>.
