mbedhtrun1

Usage

Overview

mbedhtrun supports flashing, resetting and testing of Mbed Enabled devices from the command line.

Whilst test automation tools such as mbed-test-wrapper can provide automated flashing and testing of Mbed devices, mbedhtrun provides a simple and convenient CLI to flash, reset and test devices directly.

Options

-f, --image-path FLASH_FILE

path to file to flash

-m, --micro MICRO

target microcontroller name

-p, --port PORT

serial port of the target

-d, --disk TARGET_PATH

target disk (mount point) path

-t, --target-id TARGET_ID

unique Target ID or Mbed platform

--sync SYNC

how many times __sync packet will be sent to device (0: none; -1: forever; 1,2,3...: number of times; default: 2)

--sync-timeout TIMEOUT

delay in seconds between __sync packet (default: 5)

-c, --copy METHOD

copy (flash the target) method selector

--retry-copy ATTEMPTS

number of attempts to flash the target (default: 3)

--tag-filters FILTERS

comma-separated list of device tags used when allocating a target to specify required hardware or attributes [–tag-filters tag1,tag2]

-r, --reset

force different type of reset

-C, --program_cycle_s TIMEOUT

duration for program to sleep after copying binary onto target (default: 4)

-R, --reset-timeout TIMEOUT

when forcing a reset (with -r), specify a post-reset idle delay in seconds (default: 1)

--process-start-timeout TIMEOUT

set maximum time (seconds) to wait for an internal process to start (default: 60)

-e, --enum-host-tests DIR

define directory with local host tests (default: ./test/host_tests)

--test-cfg FILE

specify test class data about host test configuration

--run

runs binary image on target (workflow: flash, reset, output console)

--skip-flashing

skips use of copy/flash plugin. Note: target will not be reflashed

--skip-reset

skips use of reset plugin. Note: target will not be reset

-P, --polling-timeout TIMEOUT

timeout (seconds) for readiness of mount point and serial port of local or remote device (default: 60)

-b, --send-break

send reset signal to board on specified port (-p PORT) and print serial output; can be combined with -r RESET_TYPE switch

--baud-rate BAUD_RATE

baud rate of target; overrides values from mbed-ls, disk/mount point (-d, --disk-path), and serial port -p :

-v, --verbose

enable verbose mode

--serial-output-file FILE

save target serial output to this file

--compare-log FILE

log file to compare with the serial output from target

--list

print registered host test and exit

--plugins

print registered plugins and exit

--version

print version and exit

--help

print usage details and exit

Examples

To flash the file test.bin to the mounted path /mnt/MBED on the K64F microcontroller, using the shell copy method with target serial port COM5, and sleeping for 5 seconds after flashing, run:

$ mbedhtrun --disk /mnt/MBED --port COM5 --image-path "test.bin" -C 4 --copy shell --micro K64F
