PineTime Smart Watch Firmware with Apache Mynewt and Embedded Rust

This master branch contains the firmware source code for PineTime Smart Watch with Apache Mynewt and Embedded Rust. Refer to the articles...

The code structure is similar to the earlier article on nRF52...

Coding nRF52 with Rust and Apache Mynewt on Visual Studio Code

Build Instructions

If you are building from this repository from scratch instead of the Released Packages, here are the steps:

Install rustup with support for nightly target thumbv7em-none-eabihf. Also install Arm toolchain gcc-arm-none-eabi and the newt build tool for Mynewt. Refer to this script...

scripts/install-pi.sh
repos folder should contain the Mynewt source code, installed by the newt install command:
```
cd pinetime-rust-mynewt
newt install
```
Ignore the error Error: Error updating "mcuboot"
Check the rust folder for additional sub-repositories that should be cloned in order to build this project.

Build the bootloader...

cd pinetime-rust-mynewt
scripts/nrf52/build-boot.sh

Build the application...
```
scripts/build-app.sh
```
If you see the error Undefined main, run scripts/build-app.sh again. It should fix the error.
Create the application firmware image...
```
scripts/nrf52/image-app.sh
```
Flash the bootloader...
```
scripts/nrf52-pi/flash-boot.sh
```
Flash the application and run it...
```
scripts/nrf52-pi/flash-app.sh
```
Check this article in case of problems...

Build and Flash Rust+Mynewt Firmware for PineTime Smart Watch

Fixes for Mynewt type conversion build warnings

These fixes should be applied manually when upgrading Mynewt or installing Mynewt from scratch. They suppress the compiler warning messages that stop the Mynewt build for C++ source files.

1️⃣ repos/apache-mynewt-core/kernel/os/include/os/os_mutex.h line 122

    return mu->mu_level;

Change to

    return (os_error_t) mu->mu_level;

2️⃣ repos/apache-mynewt-core/hw/sensor/include/sensor/sensor.h line 847

    return (sensor->s_types & sensor->s_mask & type);

Change to

    return (sensor_type_t) (sensor->s_types & sensor->s_mask & type);

3️⃣ repos/apache-mynewt-core/encoding/tinycbor/include/tinycbor/cbor.h line 201

    {   return encoder->writer->bytes_written; }

Change to

    {   return (CborError) encoder->writer->bytes_written; }

How This Application Was Created

The Windows version of the newt command-line tool in newt/newt.exe was created from

github.com/lupyuen/mynewt-newt

The Mynewt application was originally based on:

mynewt.apache.org/latest/tutorials/sensors/sensor_thingy_lis2dh12_onb.html

mynewt.apache.org/latest/tutorials/sensors/sensor_nrf52_bno055.html

cd /mnt/c
newt new stm32bluepill-mynewt-sensor
cd stm32bluepill-mynewt-sensor
cat project.yml

newt install
newt pkg new -t app apps/my_sensor_app
newt pkg new -t lib libs/semihosting_console

newt target create bluepill_boot
newt target set bluepill_boot bsp=@apache-mynewt-core/hw/bsp/bluepill
newt target set bluepill_boot app=@apache-mynewt-core/apps/boot
newt target set bluepill_boot build_profile=optimized

newt target create bluepill_my_sensor
newt target set bluepill_my_sensor bsp=@apache-mynewt-core/hw/bsp/bluepill
newt target set bluepill_my_sensor app=apps/my_sensor_app
newt target set bluepill_my_sensor build_profile=debug

project.yml should contain
