So it turns out I actually liked setting up a dev environment in a recent role. So I decided to update my personal setup as I had let things rot after Jenkins decided to self-destruct after an update.

So what did I use?

git-o-lite- A tiny no-frills git-based admin based on, git. Whilst not the most user friendly, You don’t have to wrestle with a web browser, log in and click. You just modify the admin repository, commit and all is good! Yes, even post-commit hooks! It’s so satisfying seeing a message from ‘git push’ telling you that it’s triggered a build!

These are a bunch of simple scripts that I’ve put together to assist me in a few UE4 projects.

I’ll update these when I use them enough times to generalise them!

Simple compile script.

It’s for a Mac. This might help you write your own, maybe :-)

#!/bin/bash
export PROJECT_DIR=/Users/simon/Projects/Echo/Project
export ACTION=
export PLATFORM_NAME=macosx
export CONFIGURATION=DebugGame
cd /Users/Shared/UnrealEngine/4.9
/Users/Shared/UnrealEngine/4.9/Engine/Build/BatchFiles/Mac/RocketBuild.sh $ACTION ProjectEditor $PLATFORM_NAME $CONFIGURATION "$PROJECT_DIR/Project.uproject"

Simple clean scripts

Regular Project.

Intel Edison

Problems with DFU flashing the Intel Edison

Have you tried to upload the ubilinux distro to your Edison?

Do you get the annoying error on your mac/linux machine “Unable to allocate file buffer for firmware” when you’re dfu-ing the image?

Or does the “Ten minute upload” become instantaneous, but the root image is your previous one?

Maybe it’s saying “Could not read file”?

That’s because your image exceeds the RAM in your machine, (or the limitations of your architecture if the image is more than 2Gb?).
