The Falter project builds a modern OpenWrt-based firmware for Freifunk Berlin. We split our code on different repositories. For the beginning there are two main repositories you should know:

• packages: This repo holds the source code for an OpenWrt package feed. All falter specific packets reside there, regardless if they are luci-apps or just command-line-apps. Everything should be bundled as a package. If you want to file an issue or fix a bug you probably want to go here.
• builter: The builter assembles Freifunk images from the OpenWrt-imagebuilder and the pre-compiled package feed from buildbot. If you want to include a new app into falter, you'd need to add it to the packagelists defined here.

This script packages falter-firmware from openwrt-imagebuilder and falter-feed. In comparison to the old buildsystem, it is almost insanely fast.

The script takes four positional arguments. You can add env variables as well, have a look at the helptext.

build/build.sh <version> <target> <profile> [<destination>]

version takes the falter-version you would like to build. This maps to the feed-directories avaiable at buildbot.

Destination will default to out/<version>/<target>/<subtarget>/

You can leave version, profile or target away to get a prefilled helptext with all available options.

If you like to build only one specific router-profile, you must give all the arguments before.

Lets assume you'd like to build a stable-release-tunneldigger-image for your Genexis Pulse EX400 router. To achieve that, you should invoke the buildscript in that way:

build/build.sh 1.5.0 ramips/mt7621 genexis_pulse-ex400
