MCUXpresso installer
Download "MCUXpresso Installer" (not a plain IDE package - NXP replaced that
with an installer app) from https://www.nxp.com/mcuxpresso (NXP account
required) and place the Linux download in this directory before running
docker compose build mcuxpresso-agent.
The file NXP ships is named something like MCUXpressoInstaller.deb.bin - a
Makeself self-extracting archive wrapping an Electron app, not a .deb you
can apt install directly. The Dockerfile unpacks it, pulls out the real
.deb inside, and uses the app's bundled MCUXpressoInstallerCLI binary to
fetch the toolchain non-interactively (no NXP login needed for the actual
component downloads - see the Dockerfile for how). It picks up the first
*.deb.bin it finds here, so you only need one file present at a time.
By default the image bakes in the Arm GNU Toolchain, CMake, and Ninja (see
agents/mcuxpresso/Dockerfile). To install additional packages/components
(e.g. an MCUXpresso SDK bundle, LinkServer, SEGGER J-Link support), run:
docker run --rm jenkins-docker-mcuxpresso-agent mcux-cli install --help
to see every available -p/-c choice, then add them to the mcux-cli install line in the Dockerfile.
This directory is gitignored except for this README.
