Standard Setup of Toolchain for Linux
 | 
						|
*************************************
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Install Prerequisites
 | 
						|
=====================
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To compile with ESP-IDF you need to get the following packages:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- CentOS 7::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    sudo yum install gcc git wget make ncurses-devel flex bison gperf python pyserial
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Ubuntu and Debian::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    sudo apt-get install gcc git wget make libncurses-dev flex bison gperf python python-serial
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Arch::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    sudo pacman -S --needed gcc git make ncurses flex bison gperf python2-pyserial
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Toolchain Setup
 | 
						|
===============
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
ESP32 toolchain for Linux is available for download from Espressif website:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- for 64-bit Linux:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  https://dl.espressif.com/dl/xtensa-esp32-elf-linux64-1.22.0-80-g6c4433a-5.2.0.tar.gz
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- for 32-bit Linux:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  https://dl.espressif.com/dl/xtensa-esp32-elf-linux32-1.22.0-80-g6c4433a-5.2.0.tar.gz
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1.  Download this file, then extract it in ``~/esp`` directory::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        mkdir -p ~/esp
 | 
						|
        cd ~/esp
 | 
						|
        tar -xzf ~/Downloads/xtensa-esp32-elf-linux64-1.22.0-80-g6c4433a-5.2.0.tar.gz
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. _setup-linux-toolchain-add-it-to-path:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
2.  The toolchain will be extracted into ``~/esp/xtensa-esp32-elf/`` directory.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    To use it, you will need to update your ``PATH`` environment variable in ``~/.profile`` file. To make ``xtensa-esp32-elf`` available for all terminal sessions, add the following line to your ``~/.profile`` file::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/esp/xtensa-esp32-elf/bin"
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Alternatively, you may create an alias for the above command. This way you can get the toolchain only when you need it. To do this, add different line to your ``~/.profile`` file::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        alias get_esp32='export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/esp/xtensa-esp32-elf/bin"'
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Then when you need the toolchain you can type ``get_esp32`` on the command line and the toolchain will be added to your ``PATH``.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    .. note::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        If you have ``/bin/bash`` set as login shell, and both ``.bash_profile`` and ``.profile`` exist, then update ``.bash_profile`` instead.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
3.  Log off and log in back to make the ``.profile`` changes effective. Run the following command to verify if ``PATH`` is correctly set::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        printenv PATH
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    You are looking for similar result containing toolchain's path at the end of displayed string::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        $ printenv PATH
 | 
						|
        /home/user-name/bin:/home/user-name/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/home/user-name/esp/xtensa-esp32-elf/bin
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Instead of ``/home/user-name`` there should be a home path specific to your installation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Permission issues /dev/ttyUSB0
 | 
						|
------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
With some Linux distributions you may get the ``Failed to open port /dev/ttyUSB0`` error message when flashing the ESP32. :ref:`This can be solved by adding the current user to the dialout group<linux-dialout-group>`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Arch Linux Users
 | 
						|
----------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To run the precompiled gdb (xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb) in Arch Linux requires ncurses 5, but Arch uses ncurses 6. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Backwards compatibility libraries are available in AUR_ for native and lib32 configurations:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ncurses5-compat-libs/
 | 
						|
- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lib32-ncurses5-compat-libs/
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Before installing these packages you might need to add the author's public key to your keyring as described in the "Comments" section at the links above.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Alternatively, use crosstool-NG to compile a gdb that links against ncurses 6.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
