This repository is a base SBT project added to help non Scala/SBT native people in their first steps.
Just one important note, you need a java JDK >= 8
On debian :
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:openjdk-r/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk -y
#To set the default java
sudo update-alternatives --config java
sudo update-alternatives --config javac
You need to install SBT
echo "deb https://dl.bintray.com/sbt/debian /" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sbt.list
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 2EE0EA64E40A89B84B2DF73499E82A75642AC823
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sbt
If you want to run the scala written testbench, you have to be on linux and have Verilator installed (a recent version) :
sudo apt-get install git make autoconf g++ flex bison -y # First time prerequisites
git clone http://git.veripool.org/git/verilator # Only first time
unsetenv VERILATOR_ROOT # For csh; ignore error if on bash
unset VERILATOR_ROOT # For bash
cd verilator
git pull # Make sure we're up-to-date
git checkout v4.040
autoconf # Create ./configure script
./configure
make -j$(nproc)
sudo make install
cd ..
echo "DONE"
Clone or download this repository.
git clone https://github.com/SpinalHDL/SpinalTemplateSbt.git
Open a terminal in the root of it and run "sbt run". At the first execution, the process could take some seconds
cd SpinalTemplateSbt
//If you want to generate the Verilog of your design
sbt "runMain mylib.MyTopLevelVerilog"
//If you want to generate the VHDL of your design
sbt "runMain mylib.MyTopLevelVhdl"
//If you want to run the scala written testbench
sbt "runMain mylib.MyTopLevelSim"
The top level spinal code is defined into src\main\scala\mylib
You need to install :
- Java JDK 8
- SBT
- Intellij IDEA (the free Community Edition is good enough)
- Intellij IDEA Scala plugin (when you run Intellij IDEA the first time, he will ask you about it)
And do the following :
- Clone or download this repository.
- In Intellij IDEA, "import project" with the root of this repository, Import project from external model SBT
- In addition maybe you need to specify some path like JDK to Intellij
- In the project (Intellij project GUI), go in src/main/scala/mylib/MyTopLevel.scala, right click on MyTopLevelVerilog, "Run MyTopLevelVerilog"
Normally, this must generate an MyTopLevel.v output files.
