This repo contains various scripts and tools related to running continuous integration (CI) checks on Arduino Library Repos. The operations include:
There is an associated guide available here: https://learn.adafruit.com/the-well-automated-arduino-library/
Adding GitHub Actions to RepoTo run these continuous integration checks on each push, pull-request or repository dispatch using GitHub actions:
.github/worflows
in the root of the repo.example_actions.yml
into the above directory and rename it githubci.yml
.githubci.yml
and change PRETTYNAME
to the library repo name. Optionally, delete or comment out steps (using the #
character), you don't want to include.The build_platform.py
script is used to test each .ino
example in the repo for selected build platforms. The ALL_PLATFORMS
dictionary contains a listing of all available platforms and selected platform groups. By default, main_platforms
is used. To select a specific platform or group, replace main_platforms
in githubci.yml
with the group or platform name.
Additionally, UF2 files of the compiled sketches can be generated for supported platforms.
Fine tuning test selectionThe script behavior can be controlled using special filenames:
.PLATFORM_ID.test.skip
- Skip the specified platform. All others are tested..PLATFORM_ID.test.only
- Test the specified platform. All others are skipped..PLATFORM_ID.generate
- Generate UF2 of sketch for specified platform (if supported).These are just empty files placed in an example folder. Replace PLATFORM_ID
in the name with the key from ALL_PLATFORMS
. metro_m0
from the following line in build_platform.py
, for example:
"metro_m0" : ["adafruit:samd:adafruit_metro_m0", "0x68ed2b88", None],
You can use several .PLATFORM_ID.test.skip
or .PLATFORM_ID.test.only
to exclude or include multiple platforms. For example:
.esp8266.test.skip
.uno.test.only
.none.test.only
.pyportal.generate
Any library dependencies included in the library.properties
are automatically installed before the tests are started. To install additional dependencies (e.g., those required for some examples but not the library itself) using arduino-cli
, you could add additional steps to the githubci.yml
file. For example:
- name: Set configuration run: arduino-cli config set library.enable_unsafe_install true - name: Install test dependencies run: arduino-cli lib install --git-url https://github.com/arduino-libraries/Servo --git-url https://github.com/arduino-libraries/Ethernet
Note: you'll only need to enable the enable_unsafe_install
option if you want to identify libraries using urls. This isn't necessary when using the library name.
The run-clang-format.py
script is used to run clang-format and check file formatting. See the guide for details on installing clang-format
to run formatting locally. Even a single extra white space can cause the CI to fail on formatting. You can typically just let clang do its thing and edit files in place using:
clang-format -i File_To_Format.cpp
Documentation with Doxygen
The doxy_gen_and_deploy.sh
script uses Doxygen to generate and deploy documentation for the library. Any issues, like missing documentation, will cause the CI to fail. See the guide for details on installing and running Doxygen locally. The guide also has some tips on basic usage of Doxygen markup within your code.
By default, the documentation deployment script cleans the gh-pages branch before adding new documentation. If you need to preserve certain folders (like custom web interfaces), you can set the PRESERVE_FOLDERS
environment variable in your workflow:
- name: doxygen env: GH_REPO_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GH_REPO_TOKEN }} PRETTYNAME : "My Arduino Library" PRESERVE_FOLDERS: "webserial,assets" run: bash ci/doxy_gen_and_deploy.sh
This will preserve the listed folders (comma-separated) during the documentation generation process.
