Gr-smart meters Setup on other distros (view source)

The [[Gr-smart meters Setup Guide]] describes how to build the gr-smart meters setup on Ubuntu. This page documents how to do so on other Linux distributions. Note that the patches applied (<code>pull_23</code> for <code>gr-pdu_utils</code> and <code>pull_9</code> for <code>gr-timing_utils</code>) apply pull requests that have not yet been accepted into the respective Sandia Labs repositories. If and when they are ever merged into the main line code, these patches will no longer be necessary. Also note that with these patches applied, it is no longer necessary to build or use the <code>gr-sandia_utils</code> code.
For each distribution below, what is shown is a container file (for use with Docker or Podman) that shows how to build the relevant modules within a container based on the relevant distro. This is done to both make it absolutely clear which steps need to be done and which order, and also to provide a convenient way to test and these recipes to other Linux distributions.
To run these commands on a real distribution (that is, not in a container), you can simply execute each "RUN" command exactly as it appears and then substitute `cd` commands for the "WORKDIR" lines (or use <code>pushd</code>/<code>popd</code> pairs as shown in the example below). You can ignore the "FROM" line. You will want to adjust the directories for your own computer. So for example, for Arch one could use the following commands:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
mkdir FHSS_Utils
cd FHSS_Utils
pacman --noconfirm -Sy git make cmake gcc gnuradio boost doxygen graphviz pybind11
git clone https://github.com/sandialabs/gr-pdu_utils.git
git clone https://github.com/sandialabs/gr-timing_utils.git
git clone https://github.com/sandialabs/gr-fhss_utils.git
for fn in * ; do pushd $fn && git checkout maint-3.10 && popd ; done
pushd gr-pdu_utils
git fetch origin refs/pull/23/head:pull_23
git checkout pull_23
cmake -B build && cmake --build build -t install
popd
pushd gr-timing_utils
git fetch origin refs/pull/9/head:pull_9
git checkout pull_9
cmake -B build && cmake --build build -t install
popd
pushd gr-fhss_utils
RUN cmake -B build && cmake --build build -t install
popd
</syntaxhighlight>
Note too, that you may need to use <code>sudo</code> to install. If that's the case, you can replace this:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
cmake -B build && cmake --build build -t install
</syntaxhighlight>
with this:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
cmake -B build
cmake --build build
sudo cmake --build build -t install
</syntaxhighlight>
It's recommended to build an ordinary user and only use <code>sudo</code> for installing, as shown above. To speed up compiling on multicore machines, you can append <code>-j</code> to build commands as in <code>cmake --build build -j</code>.
These notes generally apply to all of the distributions listed below.
