- <title>Setting Up the Basic System Requirements</title>
-
- <para>
- Before you can use Toaster, you need to first set up your
- build system to run the Yocto Project.
- To do this, follow the instructions in the
- "<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_QS_URL;#packages'>The Build Host Packages</ulink>"
- and
- "<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_QS_URL;#releases'>Yocto Project Release</ulink>"
- sections in the Yocto Project Quick Start.

- <title>Establishing Toaster System Dependencies</title>
-
- <para>
- Toaster requires extra Python dependencies in order to run.
- A Toaster requirements file named
- <filename>toaster-requirements.txt</filename> defines the
- Python dependencies.
- The requirements file is located in the
- <filename>bitbake</filename> directory, which is located in the
- root directory of the
- <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#source-directory'>Source Directory</ulink>
- (e.g. <filename>poky/bitbake/toaster-requirements.txt</filename>).
- The dependencies appear in a <filename>pip</filename>,
- install-compatible format.
- </para>

- <section id='toaster-virtual-environment'>
- <title>Set Up a Python Virtual Environment</title>
-
- <para>
- Set up a Python virtual environment that allows you
- to maintain a dedicated Python executable and its own
- set of installed modules.
- Doing so separates the executable from Python and the
- modules provided by the operating system.
- This separation avoids any version conflicts.
- <note>
- Creating a virtual environment is not absolutely
- necessary.
- However, doing so is highly recommended.
- </note>
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Follow these steps to set up your virtual environment.
- These steps assume a Ubuntu distribution:
- <orderedlist>
- <listitem><para><emphasis>Install <filename>virtualenv</filename>:</emphasis>
- Install the supported
- <filename>python-virtualenv</filename> package from your
- distribution rather than using <filename>pip</filename>.
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv
- </literallayout>
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para><emphasis>Create and Activate a Virtual Environment:</emphasis>
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ virtualenv venv
- $ source venv/bin/activate
- </literallayout>
- </para></listitem>
- </orderedlist>
- <note>
- After setting up a virtual environment in
- which to run Toaster, you must initialize that
- virtual environment each time you want to start
- Toaster.
- Use the following to initialize the environment just
- before you start Toaster:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ source venv/bin/activate
- </literallayout>

- <section id='toaster-load-packages'>
- <title>Install Toaster Packages</title>
-
- <para>
- You need to install the packages that Toaster requires.
- Use this command:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ pip install -r bitbake/toaster-requirements.txt
- </literallayout>

- <section id='toaster-install-daemon'>
- <title>Install <filename>daemon</filename></title>
-
- <para>
- Toaster depends on
- <ulink url='http://www.libslack.org/daemon/'><filename>daemon</filename></ulink>.
- Depending on your distribution, how you install
- <filename>daemon</filename> differs:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para><emphasis>Debian-Based Systems:</emphasis>
- If you are running a Debian-based distribution,
- install <filename>daemon</filename> using the
- following command:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ sudo apt-get install daemon​
- </literallayout>
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para><emphasis>Non-Debian-Based Systems:</emphasis>
- If you are not running a Debian-based distribution
- (Redhat-based distribution such as Fedora),
- you need to download ​the file relevant to the
- architecture and then install
- <filename>daemon</filename> manually.
- Following are the commands for 64-bit distributions:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ wget http://libslack.org/daemon/download/daemon-0.6.4-1.x86_64.rpm
- $ sudo rpm -i daemon-0.6.4-1.x86_64.rpm
- </literallayout>
- Here are the commands for a 32-bit distribution:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ wget http://libslack.org/daemon/download/daemon-0.6.4-1.i686.rpm
- $ sudo rpm -i ​daemon-0.6.4-1.i686.rpm​
