SPDX-License-Identifier: CC-BY-SA-2.0-UK + +************ +Introduction +************ + +Toaster is a web interface to the Yocto Project's +:term:`OpenEmbedded Build System`. The interface +enables you to configure and run your builds. Information about builds +is collected and stored in a database. You can use Toaster to configure +and start builds on multiple remote build servers. + +Toaster Features +================ + +Toaster allows you to configure and run builds, and it provides +extensive information about the build process. + +- *Configure and Run Builds:* You can use the Toaster web interface to + configure and start your builds. Builds started using the Toaster web + interface are organized into projects. When you create a project, you + are asked to select a release, or version of the build system you + want to use for the project builds. As shipped, Toaster supports + Yocto Project releases 1.8 and beyond. With the Toaster web + interface, you can: + + - Browse layers listed in the various + :ref:`layer sources ` + that are available in your project (e.g. the OpenEmbedded Layer Index at + http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/). + + - Browse images, recipes, and machines provided by those layers. + + - Import your own layers for building. + + - Add and remove layers from your configuration. + + - Set configuration variables. + + - Select a target or multiple targets to build. + + - Start your builds. + + Toaster also allows you to configure and run your builds from the + command line, and switch between the command line and the web + interface at any time. Builds started from the command line appear + within a special Toaster project called "Command line builds". + +- *Information About the Build Process:* Toaster also records extensive + information about your builds. Toaster collects data for builds you + start from the web interface and from the command line as long as + Toaster is running. + + .. note:: + + You must start Toaster before the build or it will not collect + build data. + + With Toaster you can: + + - See what was built (recipes and packages) and what packages were + installed into your final image. + + - Browse the directory structure of your image. + + - See the value of all variables in your build configuration, and + which files set each value. + + - Examine error, warning, and trace messages to aid in debugging. + + - See information about the BitBake tasks executed and reused during + your build, including those that used shared state. + + - See dependency relationships between recipes, packages, and tasks. + + - See performance information such as build time, task time, CPU + usage, and disk I/O. + +For an overview of Toaster shipped with the Yocto Project &DISTRO; +Release, see the "`Toaster - Yocto Project +2.2 `__" video. + +Installation Options +==================== + +You can set Toaster up to run as a local instance or as a shared hosted +service. + +When Toaster is set up as a local instance, all the components reside on +a single build host. Fundamentally, a local instance of Toaster is +suited for a single user developing on a single build host. + +.. image:: figures/simple-configuration.png + :align: center + +Toaster as a hosted service is suited for multiple users developing +across several build hosts. When Toaster is set up as a hosted service, +its components can be spread across several machines: + +.. image:: figures/hosted-service.png + :align: center -- cgit v1.2.3
