Adding external layers to the Raspberry Pi
Now that we know how a layer works, we can add an existing external layer to our environment. To do this, we'll be working with meta-webserver ( http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/master/layer/meta-webserver/ ) in order to include the famous web server, Monkey (http://monkey-project.com/).
As you know, the first step consists of modifying our conf/bblayers.conf file in order to add the path of the layer, as follows:
# LAYER_CONF_VERSION is increased each time build/conf/bblayers.conf # changes incompatibly LCONF_VERSION = "6" BBPATH = "${TOPDIR}" BBFILES ?= "" BBLAYERS ?= " \ /home/packt/RASPBERRYPI/poky/meta \ /home/packt/RASPBERRYPI/poky/meta-yocto \ /home/packt/RASPBERRYPI/poky/meta-yocto-bsp ...Get Yocto for Raspberry Pi now with the O’Reilly learning platform.
