 ====== Compile on the Host ======
+Back to [[getting_started:install:use_on_host|]].
-===== Compile Using a Script =====
+Fetch the [[https://github.com/eeros-project/eeros-build-scripts.git|EEROS scripts]] on your host and checkout the branch for the host <code>
-As mentioned in [[getting_started:install_and_setup_development_environment#Getting_the_Sources_with_a_script|Installation and Setup]] we suggest to use a script. After having downloaded the code you can now compile EEROS, all necessary hardware libraries, and your application program. Set the build and install directories to meaningful names. E.g. if you develop on a x86 platform for an ARM platform, edit ''config.sh.in'' as follows
+$ git clone https://github.com/eeros-project/eeros-build-scripts.git eeros-project
+$ cd eeros-project
+$ git checkout host
+</code>
+Edit the ''config.sh.in'' file as follows
 <code>
-install_dir="$wd"/install-armhf
+use_simulator=true
-build_dir="$wd"/build-armhf
+use_comedi=false
+use_ros=false
+use_ros2=false
 </code>
+This will build EEROS without the ROS examples. If you have ROS2 installed and want to build the ROS examples, change the ''config.sh.in'' to
+<code>
+use_simulator=true
+use_comedi=false
+use_ros=false
+use_ros2=true
+ros_setup_script=/opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash
+</code>
+The last line must point to your ROS installation path. In general this will be ''/opt/ros/$ros_version_name/setup.bash''.
+If you want to use ROS1, change the ''config.sh.in'' to
+<code>
+use_simulator=true
+use_comedi=false
+use_ros=true
+use_ros2=false
+ros_setup_script=/opt/ros/noetic/setup.bash
+</code>
+Further, when using ROS1, search for the line <code>ros_eeros_git_version=v2.0.0</code>
+and change it into <code>ros_eeros_git_version=v1.0.1</code>
+[[http://www.comedi.org/|comedi]] stands for linux control and measurement device interface. It is a collection of drivers for a variety of common data acquisition plug-in boards on the host.
+If you want to use EEROS with [[http://www.comedi.org/|]] you have to install comedi first, see [[http://www.comedi.org/]]. Then change the ''config.sh.in'' to
+<code>
+use_simulator=true
+use_comedi=true
+use_ros=false
+use_ros2=false
+</code>
+Now you can run the ''clone'' script
+<code>
+$ ./clone.sh
+</code>
+After having downloaded the code you can now compile EEROS together with necessary libraries. The build and install directories are set in ''config.sh.in'' as follows
+<code>
+install_dir="$wd"/install-x86
+build_dir="$wd"/build-x86
+</code>
+Change this setting if you want to choose different build and install directories.
-If you use ROS you have to make sure to take necessary steps as given in [[getting_started:ros#Preparations_and_Building|Preparations and Building]], notably you have to run the ''setup.bash'' script of ROS. \\
 After this you proceed with
 <code>

 This will put all the executables into the build directory you have chosen and the compiled libraries together with the header files into the install directory. Please keep in mind that build and install directory are both defined in ''config.sh.in''.
