FBT is the entry point for firmware-related commands and utilities.
|
||||
It is invoked by `./fbt` in the firmware project root directory. Internally, it is a wrapper around [scons](https://scons.org/) build system.

||||
|
||||
If you don't need all features of `fbt` - like building the whole firmware - and only want to build and debug a single application, you can use [ufbt](https://pypi.org/project/ufbt/).

`fbt` builds updater & firmware in separate subdirectories in `build`, and their names depend on optimization settings (`COMPACT` & `DEBUG` options). However, for ease of integration with IDEs, the latest built variant's directory is always linked as `built/latest`. Additionally, `compile_commands.json` is generated in that folder (it is used for code completion support in IDEs).
|
||||
|

`build/latest` symlink & compilation database are only updated upon *firmware build targets* - that is, when you're re-building the firmware itself. Running other tasks, like firmware flashing or building update bundles *for a different debug/release configuration or hardware target*, does not update `built/latest` dir to point to that configuration.

### High-level (what you most likely need)
|
||||
|
||||
- `fw_dist` - build & publish firmware to the `dist` folder. This is a default target when no others are specified.
|
||||
- `fap_dist` - build external plugins & publish to the `dist` folder.
|
||||
- `updater_package`, `updater_minpackage` - build a self-update package. The minimal version only includes the firmware's DFU file; the full version also includes a radio stack & resources for the SD card.
|
||||
- `copro_dist` - bundle Core2 FUS+stack binaries for qFlipper.
|
||||
- `flash` - flash the attached device over SWD interface with supported probes. Probe is detected automatically; you can override it with `SWD_TRANSPORT=...` variable. If multiple probes are attached, you can specify the serial number of the probe to use with `SWD_TRANSPORT_SERIAL=...`.

## Command-line parameters {#command-line-parameters}
|
||||
|
||||
- `--options optionfile.py` (default value `fbt_options.py`) - load a file with multiple configuration values
|
||||
- `--extra-int-apps=app1,app2,appN` - force listed apps to be built as internal with the `firmware` target
|
||||
- `--extra-ext-apps=app1,app2,appN` - force listed apps to be built as external with the `firmware_extapps` target
|
||||
- `--extra-define=A --extra-define=B=C ` - extra global defines that will be passed to the C/C++ compiler, can be specified multiple times
|
||||
- `--proxy-env=VAR1,VAR2` - additional environment variables to expose to subprocesses spawned by `fbt`. By default, `fbt` sanitizes the execution environment and doesn't forward all inherited environment variables. You can find the list of variables that are always forwarded in the `environ.scons` file.
|
||||
- `--options optionfile.py` (default value `fbt_options.py`) — load a file with multiple configuration values
|
||||
- `--extra-int-apps=app1,app2,appN` — force listed apps to be built as internal with the `firmware` target

|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Default configuration variables are set in the configuration file: `fbt_options.py`.
|
||||
Values set in the command line have higher precedence over the configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also create a file called `fbt_options_local.py` that will be evaluated when loading default options file, enabling persisent overriding of default options without modifying default configuration.

||||
You can also create a file called `fbt_options_local.py` that will be evaluated when loading default options file, enabling persistent overriding of default options without modifying default configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
You can find out available options with `./fbt -h`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Firmware application set
|
||||
|
||||
You can create customized firmware builds by modifying the list of applications to be included in the build. Application presets are configured with the `FIRMWARE_APPS` option, which is a `map(configuration_name:str -> application_list:tuple(str))`. To specify an application set to use in the build, set `FIRMWARE_APP_SET` to its name.
