Mender is an open source over-the-air (OTA) software updater for embedded Linux devices. Mender comprises a client running at the embedded device, as well as a server that manages deployments across many devices.
This repository contains mender-convert-integration-scripts, which is used to pre-generate binaries as needed for mender-convert.
To start using Mender, we recommend that you begin with the Getting started section in the Mender documentation.
For more detailed information about mender-convert please visit the
Debian family section in
the Mender documentation.
To make using mender-convert-integration-scripts easier, a reference setup using a Ubuntu 19.04 Docker container is provided.
You need to install Docker Engine to use this environment.
To build a container with all required dependencies for mender-convert-integration-scripts, copy this directory to your workstation and change the current directory to it.
Then run
./docker-create-integration-binariesThis will create a container image that generates the appropriate binaries. These will be left in the output/ directory.
If you are unable to run docker containers directly on your build system, or simply want a completely isolated VM to run this, you can build everything with a Vagrant VM. We have provided a Vagrantfile and script that runs everything automatically. You need to install Vagrant and Virtualbox to use this method.
Simply execute the script as follows
./run-with-vagrant.shWe welcome and ask for your contribution. If you would like to contribute to Mender, please read our guide on how to best get started contributing code or documentation.
