Prerequisites

To use these recipes, you need PyBOMBS installed and initialize this recipe repository. You also need at least the gr-recipes repository enabled.

To install the latest official release of PyBOMBS, simply run

$ [sudo] pip install PyBOMBS

However, you might want to run the latest bleeding edge version of PyBOMBS, which you can install by running

$ [sudo] pip install [--upgrade] git+https://github.com/gnuradio/pybombs.git

After initialization, make sure you have the gr-recipes and ettus-pybombs repositories enabled:

$ pybombs recipes add gr-recipes git+https://github.com/gnuradio/gr-recipes.git
$ pybombs recipes add ettus-pybombs git+https://github.com/EttusResearch/ettus-pybombs.git

See the PyBOMBS manual for more details:

Using these recipes

There are different types of recipes:

  • Package recipes
  • Prefix recipes
  • SDK recipes

Usage depends on the type of recipes. SDK recipes attach an SDK to a prefix, and are usually referenced when initializing a prefix:

$ pybombs prefix init --sdk <name> -a <alias> <path>

Prefix recipes initialize a prefix with a full set of configuration options and packages, e.g.:

$ pybombs prefix init -R <recipe> -a <alias> <path>

This can include SDKs, and may take a while. Example:

$ pybombs prefix init -R e3xx-custom-uhd ~/prefix/e300

...will create a directory in ~/prefix/e300, install the E300 SDK, and install a version of UHD from source. This will let you test latest UHD on an E310 with the minimum of effort.
