Using Telecom Paris computer lab

It is possible to use Telecom Paris computer lab instead of your own computer. However, this will be much slower because many files will transit over the network.

Install Zephyr

You must set the environment variable ZEPHYR_BASE to /comelec/softs/opt/zephyr-rtos/sources/zephyr. Modify your shell init file so that this variable is always in your environment.

You must execute the /comelec/softs/opt/zephyr-rtos/conf/cmake-register-zephyr.sh script once. It will update your cmake configuration (in $HOME/.cmake/packages) with Zephyr location information.

You must activate the Python virtual environment in every shell where you want to use west, by executing source /comelec/softs/opt/zephyr-rtos/sources/west-venv/bin/activate.

You're all set. This is a relatively recent development of Zephyr, and we might update it from time to time, but that should be a transparent operation for you.

☹️ If something is wrong the way the Telecom Paris computer lab environment is set up, please notify the staff through the course mailing-list so that it can be fixed promptly.
