Eclipse Leda

The Eclipse Leda project provides system image "recipes" to deliver a functional and always-available Linux-based image/distribution in the context of SDV (Software Defined Vehicle), by pulling together individual contributor pieces from Eclipse SDV and the larger OSS community.

The quickstart images help to learn how the SDV development, test and deployment lifecycle works from an E2E perspective, including the deployment of applications into the container runtimes on constrained embedded devices.

The ready images are also useful for quickly setting up showcases with virtual or real hardware devices.

Eclipse Leda provides a Poky-based reference build pipeline and an OpenEmbedded Metalayer meta-leda for integration into existing Yocto-based projects.

Usage

  1. Download latest Eclipse Leda release or build from sources
  2. Run Eclipse Leda
  3. Configure device, e.g. provision the device
  4. Explore the device tools
  5. Develop your first Vehicle App using Eclipse Velocitas template
  6. Deploy a Vehicle App to the device

Contributing

Running BitBake to build your own images requires some extra setup on the build machine. Please see Building Eclipse Leda quickstart images for more information about the build process itself and how to setup a development and build infrastructure.
