devshell: allow the starting directory to be overridden

2015-03-16T17:38:34+00:00

Some people like to have the devshell start in ${B} instead of ${S}, so allow
this to be overridden.

devshell: Add interactive python shell

2014-05-28T07:20:17+00:00

Being able to interact with the python context in the Bitbake task execution
environment has long been desireable. This patch introduces such a
mechanism. Executing "bitbake X -c devpyshell" will open a terminal connected
to a python interactive interpretor in the task context so for example you can
run commands like "d.getVar('WORKDIR')"

This version now includes readline support for command history and various other
bug fixes such as exiting cleanly compared to previous versions.

devshell: Don't corrupt the fakeroot variables

2013-09-06T22:01:50+00:00

The devshell anonymous python fragment overwrites variables in the
datastore with their expanded versions. If this runs before the code
in allarch.bbclass which changes TARGET_OS, we can end up with different
directories in the fakeroot environment variables, some expanded with
the original TARGET_OS value.

The devshell code only needs to run before the task itself so we change
to trigger it to run at task execution time only using a flag.

devshell.bbclass: Allow running devshell and fakeroot together

2013-02-19T16:36:54+00:00

Currently its hard to run a devshell complete with fakeroot context. This
patch allows the fakeroot flag on the task to do this, as with any other
task. Since we may need to start X terminal applications, we need to
only start the fakeroot session on the final command, hence the hoops
this code jumps through.

As always with fakeroot, you can break out and run a command without
the fake permissions with syntax like "PSEUDO_UNLOAD=1 "

Rework how the devshell functions

2011-08-10T12:25:11+00:00

In the new implementation, each known terminal is defined as a class in
oe.terminal, as a subclass of bb.process.Popen.  terminal.bbclass wraps this
functionality, providing the metadata pieces.  It obeys the OE_TERMINAL
variable, which is a 'choice' typed variable.  This variable may be 'auto',
'none', or any of the names of the defined terminals.

When using 'auto', or requesting an unsupported terminal, we attempt to spawn
them in priority order until we get one that's available on this system (and
in the case of the X terminals, has DISPLAY defined).  The 'none' value is
used when we're doing things like automated builds, and want to ensure that no
terminal is *ever* spawned, under any circumstances.

Current available terminals:

    gnome
    konsole
    xterm
    rxvt
    screen

Ensure Bash is used when spawning terminals

2011-03-01T11:46:14+00:00

We rely on Bashisms when spawning a terminal so ensure that bash is used
when using devshell and menuconfig.
