Prerequisites

Mandatory

  • python : POD is written in python.
  • pyparsing : a python module to parse files.

On ubuntu, python is already installed, just install pyparsing package with command :

[  ] $ sudo apt-get install python-parsing

Optional

  • ghdl, gtkwave : it's not mandatory, POD can generate VHDL testbench ready for ghdl simulator. As it's standard VHDL, another simulator should work.
  • ISE Webpack : to generate synthesis project for Xilinx.
  • Quartus : to generate synthesis project for Altera.
  • ARMadeus SDK : to generate driver project for the Armadeus boards.

Install from package

Note Note: For this moment, package must be created from svn repository. Release will be downloadable soon
  • Decompress the package PeriphOnDemand-X.X.tar.gz in install directory:
$ cd somewhere/
$ tar -zxvf PeriphOnDemand-X.X.tar.gz
  • Walk through periphondemand/ directory:
$ cd periphondemand
  • Then install POD with root privilege:
 $ sudo python setup.py install

Generate package from subversion tree

  • Checkout the source code with following command (subversion is needed):
$ svn co https://periphondemand.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/periphondemand/trunk periphondemand
$ cd periphondemand/
  • Make python POD distribution:
$ python setup.py sdist
  • The POD package can be found in directory dist/
