Karel Kočí 1aa80ce393 scripts/feeds: generate index after all feeds are updated 
This separates index update from feed update. The result is that all
requested feeds are first updated and only then indexed.

The reason for this change is to prevent errors being reported and
potentially invalid index being generated thanks to cross feeds
dependency.
The feeds script pulls in default all feeds as they come and on install
prefers packages from first feeds (unless special feed is requested).
Thus order of feeds in some way specifies preferences. This is handy for
downstream distributions as they can simply override any package from
upstream feeds by placing their feed before them. This removes need to
patch or fork upstream feeds.
The problem is that such feed most likely depends in some way also on
subsequent feeds. The most likely feeds are 'packages' or 'luci'. The
example would be Python package that needs 'python.mk' from 'packages'
feed. Ordering custom feed after dependent feeds is sometimes just not
possible because of preference requirement described before.
The solution is to just first pull all feeds and generate indexes only
after that. In the end this ensures that index is generated correctly at
first try without any error.

In terms of code this removes 'perform_update' argument from
'update_feed' as with index update removal the update is the only action
performed in that subroutine. Thus this moves condition to 'update'
subroutine.

OpenWrt logo

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Sunshine!

Development

To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.

Requirements

You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.

binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which

Quickstart

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. Run make to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

Related Repositories

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.
