                              Add a Given Recipe to BSP

                              Goal

                              Add a given recipe to your BSP and build the BSP with the new recipe in it.

                              Preconditions

                              1. The PHYTEC VM is on the host system and boots correctly:Getting and Running the PHYTEC VM
                              2. You have an initialized phyLinux folder and a Yocto build in it. (Create a BSP using phyLinux)

                              Tutorial

                              This tutorial will show you how to add a new recipe to a given BSP build. To show you the different steps you will have to do, this tutorial will add the text editor "vim" to the given BSP.

                              Add a Recipe to BSP

                              If you already have an initialized folder for the PHYTEC-BSP, you will find a folder named "conf" in it. 

                              Go to BSP folder and conf folder
                              cd Path/to/your/BSP/folder/ # change directory to your BSP folder
source sources/poky/oe-init-build-env # source the necessary build pipeline, and this will also set your actual path to the right build folder
######
# Your path should look similar to: ~/Desktop/yocto/build -> the last name is the build folder
cd ./conf # change directory into the configuration folder
####
# in this folder you should find a file named "local.conf"
# At the bottom of this file you can add the line
echo 'IMAGE_INSTALL_append += "vim"' >> local.conf
# and then run a bitbake build

                              Summary

                              After the build is finished, you can copy the result image to an sdcard (Copy SD Card Image to an SD Card) and use vim in the BSP.
