BitBake/UserManual

Introduction

The current BitBake User Manual, as of Dec. 31, 2012 is quite out dated. This page serves a a place to collect ideas for revisions that are required to the bring the User Manual up to date.

Current TOC

The chapter layout of the BitBake User Manual is currently:

1. Introduction
2. Metadata
3. File Download Support
4. The bitbake command

What to Include?

• As pointed out by rday, the patch function is inherent to oe-core, while the fetch function is inherent to bitbake. So can one be discussed without the other?

Lessons to Include

• The Bitbaked Hello World
  • Build on the work by Eren Turkey and the original tutorial at the OpenEmbedded wiki.
