This page will guide you through publishing your DAC app to the RDK ASMS cloud, then installing and running it on a Raspberry Pi (RPI). More detailed documentation of all the components used is available on their respective pages.

You will need

• Raspberry Pi (RPI) 3B/3B+ or RPI 4
• Balena Etcher to write the Raspberry Pi SD card: https://www.balena.io/etcher/
• (lib32-)rdk-generic-mediaclient-image built for you RPI
• Your own built DAC app: you only need the OCI image (.tar) and not a generated bundle (.tar.gz). See this wiki page. Not needed if you only want to install and run other people's published DAC apps.

Prepare your RPI

We will be installing and running DAC apps on the RPI so we need a good host image. The most recent RDK6 mediaclient image is ideal for this.

Build the mediaclient image for your RPI

The below commands must be run in an Ubuntu 18.04 environment with the necessary pre-requisites installed to run Bitbake. See here for the exact dependencies needed:
https://docs.yoctoproject.org/ref-manual/system-requirements.html#ubuntu-and-debian

For RPI3:

mkdir rpi3_mediaclient_nosrc_rdk6
cd rpi3_mediaclient_nosrc_rdk6

# Install 'repo' tool from: https://android.googlesource.com/tools/repo
repo init --no-clone-bundle -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -b 6.0.0-rc3 -m rdkv-nosrc.xml
repo sync --no-clone-bundle -j$(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN)

MACHINE=raspberrypi-rdk-mc source meta-cmf-raspberrypi/setup-environment
bitbake rdk-generic-mediaclient-image

For RPI4:

mkdir rpi4_mediaclient_nosrc_rdk6
cd rpi4_mediaclient_nosrc_rdk6

# Install 'repo' tool from: https://android.googlesource.com/tools/repo
repo init --no-clone-bundle -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -b 6.0.0-rc3 -m rdkv-nosrc.xml
repo sync --no-clone-bundle -j$(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN)

MACHINE=raspberrypi4-64-rdk-android-mc source meta-cmf-raspberrypi/setup-environment
bitbake lib32-rdk-generic-mediaclient-image
