Arduino CLI

Use the arduino from the command line, to compile and upload

Install this:

apt-get install arduino-mk avr-gcc avr-libc

Put this in a Makefile

ARDUINO_DIR = /usr/share/arduino
BOARD_TAG    = atmega328
ARDUINO_PORT = /dev/ttyUSB*
ARDUINO_LIBS = NewPing OtherLibs
include /usr/share/arduino/Arduino.mk

Choose the BOARD_TAG using this command:

ard-parse-boards --boards

Commands

make             - no upload
make upload      - compile and upload
make clean       - remove all our dependencies
make depends     - update dependencies
make reset       - reset the Arduino by tickling DTR on the serial port
make raw_upload  - upload without first resetting
make show_boards - list all the boards defined in boards.txt
