The C SDK provides a framework for building EdgeX device services in C.
- A Linux build host
- A version of GCC supporting C99.
- CMake version 3 or greater and make.
- Development libraries and headers for curl, microhttpd, yaml, libcbor and libuuid.
At the toplevel C SDK directory, run
./scripts/build.sh
This retrieves dependencies and uses CMake to build the SDK. Subsequent
rebuilds may be performed by moving to the build/release or
build/debug directories and running make.
The main include file edgex/devsdk.h contains the functions provided by
the SDK and defines the callbacks which a device service implementor needs to
create. Documentation is provided within that file in doxygen format.
An outline device service is provided in src/c/examples to illustrate
usage.
To build the docker image which will build the deliverable, run the following command:
docker build -t device-sdk-go-c-builder -f scripts/Dockerfile.alpine-3.7 .
Once you have the builder image, to compile the code, run the following command:
docker run --rm -e UID -e GID -v $PWD/release:/edgex-c-sdk/build/release device-sdk-go-c-builder
This will generate the release files at the root of this project.
