memory-map-manager 1.0.0

A generator that unifies interfaces for memory maps

memory_map_manager

Manages memory map generation in C, python and documentation written in python3.

Installation

Install from pip

Stable versions can be installed with:

pip install memory-map-manager

Install from source

To install or update from sources checkout the repo and run:

python setup.py install --user -f

Usage

Installing the package comes with a console command generate_map.

generate_map --help
usage: generate_map [-h] [--config-path CONFIG_PATH] [--output-config OUTPUT_CONFIG] [--output-dir OUTPUT_DIR] [--output-csv OUTPUT_CSV]
                    [--reset-config] [--only-update-config] [--print-date] [--print-config]
                    [--loglevel {debug,info,warning,error,fatal,critical}]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --config-path CONFIG_PATH, -P CONFIG_PATH
                        The path to the config file or directory
  --output-config OUTPUT_CONFIG, -c OUTPUT_CONFIG
                        The path and name of the output config file
  --output-dir OUTPUT_DIR, -D OUTPUT_DIR
                        The path for all generated output
  --output-csv OUTPUT_CSV, -o OUTPUT_CSV
                        The path for the csv memory map
  --reset-config, -r    Do not copy previous non-generated mem map values
  --only-update-config, -u
                        Only updates config file without generating files
  --print-date, -d      prints the date in all headers
  --print-config, -p    Prints the config to stdout
  --loglevel {debug,info,warning,error,fatal,critical}
                        Python logger log level, defaults to "info"

Typically one would have a config fitting the schema and generate .c and .h files from it.

An example shows how to format and what the memory map will look like. Note that only the metadata, typedef, and bitfields must be populated as the memory_map can be populated based on that information.

Testing

Procedure for changes to example_typedef.json (please verify first)

python3 -m memory_map_manager.code_gen -P example_typedef.json -c example_typedef.json -u

To run the full test suite and linter use:

tox

To run just the test

python setup.py pytest

Reset regression test

python3 setup.py test --addopts --regtest-reset
