Since the handling of these options defaults to non-verbose (instead of the current preference), they make no sense when starting the IDE normally. Previously, these options would just be ignored in this case, now an error is shown.

arduino - Integrated development environment for Arduino boards
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
*arduino* ['FILE.ino'...]
|
|
|
|
*arduino* [*--verify*|*--upload*] [*--board* __package__:__arch__:__board__[:__parameters__]] [*--port* __portname__] [*--pref* __name__=__value__] [*-v*|*--verbose*] [__FILE.ino__]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
The 'arduino' integrated development environment allows editing,
|
|
compiling and uploading sketches (programs) for Arduino
|
|
(and compatible) microcontroller boards.
|
|
|
|
Normally, running the arduino command starts the IDE, optionally loading
|
|
any .ino files specified on the commandline.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, if *--verify* or *--upload* is given, no graphical
|
|
interface will be shown and instead a one-off verify (compile) or upload
|
|
will be done. A single .ino file should be given. If the sketch contains
|
|
multiple .ino files, any one can be specified on the commandline, but
|
|
the entire sketch will be compiled.
|
|
|
|
When running in a one-off mode, it might be useful to set the
|
|
*build.path* preference to allow keeping intermediate build results
|
|
between multiple runs and only recompile the files that changed.
|
|
|
|
Note that on MacOS X, the main executable is
|
|
'Arduino.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub' instead of 'arduino'.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
*--board* __package__:__arch__:__board__[:__parameters__]::
|
|
Select the board to compile for.
|
|
|
|
* __package__ is the identifier of the vendor (the first
|
|
level folders inside the 'hardware' directory). Default
|
|
arduino boards use 'arduino'.
|
|
* __architecture__ is the architecture of the board (second level folders
|
|
inside the 'hardware' directory). Default arduino boards use
|
|
either *arduino:avr* for all AVR-based boards (like Uno, Mega
|
|
or Leonardo) or *arduino:sam* for 32bit SAM-based boards
|
|
(like Arduino Due).
|
|
* __board__ is the actual board to use, as defined in 'boards.txt'
|
|
contained in the architecture folder selected. For example,
|
|
*arduino:avr:uno* for the Arduino Uno,
|
|
*arduino:avr:diecimila* for the Arduino Duemilanove or
|
|
Diecimila, or *arduino:avr:mega* for the Arduino Mega.
|
|
* __parameters__ is a comma-separated list of boards specific parameters
|
|
that are normally shown under submenus of the "Tools" menu. For
|
|
example *arduino:avr:nano:cpu=atmega168* to Select the mega168
|
|
variant of the Arduino Nano board.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
If this option is not passed, the value from the current
|
|
preferences is used (e.g., the last board selected in the IDE).
|
|
If this option is given, the value passed is written to the
|
|
preferences file and rememberd for subsequent runs.
|
|
|
|
*--port* __portname__::
|
|
Select the serial port to perform upload of the sketch.
|
|
On linux and MacOS X, this should be the path to a device file (e.g.,
|
|
*/dev/ttyACM0*). On Windows, this should be the name of the serial
|
|
port (e.g., *COM3*).
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
If this option is not passed, the value from the current
|
|
preferences is used (e.g., the last port selected in the IDE).
|
|
If this option is given, the value passed is written to the
|
|
preferences file and rememberd for subsequent runs.
|
|
|
|
*--verbose-build*::
|
|
Enable verbose mode during build. If this option is not given,
|
|
verbose mode during build is disabled regardless of the current
|
|
preferences.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
This option is only valid together with *--verify* or
|
|
*--upload*.
|
|
|
|
*--verbose-upload*::
|
|
Enable verbose mode during upload. If this option is not given,
|
|
verbose mode during upload is disabled regardless of the current
|
|
preferences.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
This option is only valid together with *--verify* or
|
|
*--upload*.
|
|
|
|
*-v, --verbose*::
|
|
Enable verbose mode during build and upload.
|
|
This option has the same effect of using both *--verbose-build*
|
|
and *--verbose-upload*.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
This option is only valid together with *--verify* or
|
|
*--upload*.
|
|
|
|
*--preferences-file* __filename__::
|
|
Read and store preferences from the specified __filename__ instead
|
|
of the default one.
|
|
|
|
*--pref* __name__=__value__::
|
|
Sets the preference __name__ to the given __value__.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
Note that the preferences you set with this option are not
|
|
validated: Invalid names will be set but never used, invalid
|
|
values might lead to an error later on.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
If this option is given, the value passed is written to the
|
|
preferences file and rememberd for subsequent runs.
|
|
|
|
*--upload*::
|
|
Build and upload the sketch.
|
|
|
|
*--verify*::
|
|
Build the sketch.
|
|
|
|
PREFERENCES
|
|
-----------
|
|
Arduino keeps a list of preferences, as simple name and value pairs.
|
|
Below, a few of them are documented but a lot more are available.
|
|
|
|
*sketchbook.path*::
|
|
The path where sketches are (usually) stored. This path can also
|
|
contain some special subdirectories (see FILES below).
|
|
|
|
*update.check*::
|
|
When set to true, the IDE checks for a new version on startup.
|
|
|
|
*editor.external*::
|
|
When set to true, use an external editor (the IDE does not allow
|
|
editing and reloads each file before verifying).
|
|
|
|
*build.path*::
|
|
The path to use for building. This is where things like the
|
|
preprocessed .cpp file, compiled .o files and the final .hex
|
|
file go.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
If set, this directory should already exist before running the
|
|
arduino command.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
If this preference is not set (which is normally the case), a
|
|
new temporary build folder is created on every run and deleted
|
|
again when the application is closed.
|
|
|
|
EXIT STATUS
|
|
-----------
|
|
*0*:: Success
|
|
*1*:: Build failed or upload failed
|
|
*2*:: Sketch not found
|
|
*3*:: Invalid (argument for) commandline option
|
|
|
|
FILES
|
|
-----
|
|
*~/.arduino15/preferences.txt*::
|
|
This file stores the preferences used for the IDE, building and
|
|
uploading sketches.
|
|
|
|
*My Documents/Arduino/* (Windows)::
|
|
*~/Documents/Arduino/* (Mac OS X)::
|
|
*~/Arduino/* (Linux)::
|
|
This directory is referred to as the "Sketchbook" and contains
|
|
the user's sketches. The path can be changed through the
|
|
*sketchbook.path* preference.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
Apart from sketches, three special directories can be inside the
|
|
sketchbook:
|
|
|
|
*libraries*:::
|
|
Libraries can be put inside this directory, one library
|
|
per subdirectory.
|
|
|
|
*hardware*:::
|
|
Support for third-party hardware can be added through
|
|
this directory.
|
|
|
|
*tools*:::
|
|
External code-processing tools (that can be run through
|
|
the Tools menu of the IDE) can be added here.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
Start the Arduino IDE, with two files open:
|
|
|
|
arduino /path/to/sketch/sketch.ino /path/to/sketch/extra.ino
|
|
|
|
Compile and upload a sketch using the last selected board and serial port
|
|
|
|
arduino --upload /path/to/sketch/sketch.ino
|
|
|
|
Compile and upload a sketch to an Arduino Nano, with an Atmega168 CPU,
|
|
connected on port '/dev/ttyACM0':
|
|
|
|
arduino --board arduino:avr:nano:cpu=atmega168 --port /dev/ttyACM0 --upload /path/to/sketch/sketch.ino
|
|
|
|
Compile a sketch, put the build results in the 'build' directory an
|
|
re-use any previous build results in that directory.
|
|
|
|
arduino --pref build.path=/path/to/sketch/build --verify /path/to/sketch/sketch.ino
|
|
|
|
HISTORY
|
|
-------
|
|
1.5.2::
|
|
Added initial commandline support. This introduced *--verify*,
|
|
*--upload*, *--board*, *--port*, *--verbose* and *-v*.
|
|
|
|
1.5.5::
|
|
Added support for board-specific parameters to *--board*.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
Sketch filenames are now interpreted relative to the current
|
|
directory instead of the location of the arduino command itself.
|
|
|
|
1.5.6::
|
|
Introduced *--pref*, *--preferences-file*, *--verbose-build* and
|
|
*--verbose-upload*.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
Preferences set through --pref are remembered, preferences set
|
|
through *--board*, *--port* or the *--verbose* options are not.
|
|
|
|
{empty}::
|
|
When running with *--verify* or *--upload*, the full GUI is no
|
|
longer shown. Error messages still use a graphical popup and on
|
|
Windows, the splash screen is still shown.
|
|
|
|
1.5.7::
|
|
*--board* and *--port* options are now saved to the preferences
|
|
file, just like *--pref*. The *--verbose* options still only
|
|
apply to the current run.
