Installation
|
- Installation for a user group (since version 0.1.4)
- Download the nxcEditor (32 bit, 64 bit or Raspberry Pi)
- if you choose an executable nxcEditor-file, then you have to install “gambas3“, “sox”, "zip", "sftp" and “ImageMagick”
- possibly a repository for Gambas3 must be added or Gambas3 must be compiled from source
- for the new Gambas3 repositories (e.g. Ubuntu) look at gambas.sourceforge.net
- for compiling Gambas3 from source for the Raspberry Pi look at (unnecessary for current images): Gambas3_install.pdf
- Copy “70-nxt.rules” in folder /etc/udev/rules.d
- Inside a terminal:
- create the group nxt with:
groupadd nxt
- add the user USERNAME to the group:
usermod -a -G nxt USERNAME
- Installation for all users of the computer or one user
- Download the nxcEditor (32 bit, 64 bit or Raspberry Pi)
- if you choose an executable nxcEditor-file, then you have to install “gambas3“, “sox”, "zip", "sftp" and “ImageMagick”
- possibly a repository for Gambas3 must be added or Gambas3 must be compiled from source
- for the new Gambas3 repositories (e.g. Ubuntu) look at gambas.sourceforge.net
- for compiling Gambas3 from source for the Raspberry Pi look at (unnecessary for current images): Gambas3_install.pdf
- Copy as root “nbc” and “nexttool” to the folder “/usr/local/bin” (permissions: make them executable).
Attention: There is one version for 32 bit Linux, one for 64 bit Linux and one for the Raspberry Pi (see below: Downloads). If you want to use the 32 bit version with 64 bit Linux, you need ia32-libs for Ubuntu/Mint/Debian (thanks to Paul Cobbaut for this important hint). Use in this case libusb-0_1-4-32bit for openSUSE. For the installation the software package management can be used.
- Add two lines at the end of the sudoers file (/etc/sudoers). Use visudo as root inside a terminal. “USERNAME“ must be replaced with the name of the user.
USERNAME ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/nbc
USERNAME ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/nexttool
or
ALL ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/nbc
ALL ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/nexttool
Attention: The sudoers file will only work with exactly
this permissions: r-- r-- --- (440)
- Copy “70-nxt.rules” in folder /etc/udev/rules.d (not required for Ubuntu)
- Additional installation instructions for the BrickPi Robot: Instructions
You can copy a new version of the nxcEditor to the directory /usr/local/bin/ of the live system (do this as root). The file must be renamed in “nxcEditor.gambas“ and made executable.
