Fetching BabbleSim
The BabbleSim project consists of many components, most of them optional and each in its own separate git repository.
There are several ways to fetch it, using android’s repo, west or plain git.
You can find instructions on how to install git, repo and west in dependencies.
Using Android’s repo
The easiest and recommended way to fetch them is by using Androids repo
mkdir ~/bsim/ && cd ~/bsim/
repo init -u https://github.com/BabbleSim/manifest.git -m everything.xml -b master
repo sync
For a list and description of the provided manifests, see the manifest repository documentation
Using Zephyr’s west tool (decoupled from Zephyr itself)
mkdir ~/bsim/ && cd ~/bsim/
west init -m git@github.com:BabbleSim/bsim_west.git bsim
cd bsim
west update
For a list and description of the provided manifests, see the west manifest repository documentation
Using Zephyr’s west tool, as part of a Zephyr or nRF Connect SDK workspace
New enough Zephyr and NCS repositories (main branch newer than 2023/04/20) include BabbleSim in their main manifest, but disabled by default. You can enable that group by adding to the west workspace group filter babblesim:
west config manifest.group-filter -- +babblesim
west update
After that you will find the simulator in the tools/bsim folder of your workspace.
As a set of separate projects, with git submodule, subtree, or vanilla git
You may fetch each git repository manually or by other means. In this case, consult the folder structure page for information about how to place them.
export BSIM_OUT_PATH=${HOME}/bsim/ #If fetched with the repo instructions
export BSIM_OUT_PATH=${HOME}/bsim/bsim/ #If fetched with the standalone west instructions
export BSIM_OUT_PATH=${ZEPHYR_BASE}/../tools/bsim/ #If fetched as part of the Zephyr or NCS workspace
export BSIM_COMPONENTS_PATH=${BSIM_OUT_PATH}/components/
#replace those paths as necessary
