  • Find and download the .wic.bz2 file from your build: find tmp/deploy/ -name *.wic.bz2
  • Flash it to the Raspberry Pi's SD card using Etcher. In principle it can handle a wic.bz2 directly but sometimes this doesn't work great. Unzipping it first can help: bzip2 -df xxx.wic.bz2
  • Resize the SD card using gParted so that the main ext3 partition is at least 2GB in size so that is has enough room to download and install all the apps you need
  • Insert the SD card back in the RaspberryPi and power up the Pi. Connect the Raspberry Pi to your network with an ethernet cable, and to your TV with a HDMI cable.
  • Make sure you can SSH into the Pi as this is important for later. The default user is root with no password
  • You should see the RDK Resident GUI application on your TV at bootup (after following some initial setup questions)

Install and run your DAC app from ASMS

Configure ASMS

After boot-up you need to manually configure ASMS and the version+platform of your host:

  1. on your RPI, create the file /opt/appmanagerregistry.conf
  2. add the contents below to it in case you are using an RPI4.


Code Block
languagejs
{
  "app-catalog-cloud": {
    "url": "http://asms-api-1852129899.eu-central-1.elb.amazonaws.com:8080/apps",
    "firmwareVersions": [
      {
        "platform": "rpi4",
        "ver": "1.0.0-e71889dc02521bfdc2f9f38f750b34224184c375-dbg"
      }
    ]
  }
}

For RPI3 you need a different platform and ver:

Code Block
languagejs
{
  "app-catalog-cloud": {
    "url": "http://asms-api-1852129899.eu-central-1.elb.amazonaws.com:8080/apps",
    "firmwareVersions": [
      {
        "platform": "rpi3",
        "ver": "1.0.0-f4b0603d7d93dfa10ed932ddb0f324d334bc40f9-dbg"
      }
    ]
  }
}


Publish your DAC app

If you don't want to test or publish your own DAC app then you can skip this step and tries the already published demo apps in the next section.

Install and run your DAC app from ASMS

There are two ways to install and run a DAC app from ASMS:

  1. using the RDK Resident GUI
  2. using the dactest.py test tool
