Compile Arduino libs with ESP_LOGx

################################## Compile Arduino libs with ESP_LOGx ##################################

There are 2 primary approaches and both of them involve editing file configs/defconfig.common. Edit the file directly and then build. Later you can git restore configs/defconfig.common to go back. Copy the file cp configs/defconfig.common configs/defconfig.debug and edit the debug version.

vim configs/defconfig.common or vim configs/defconfig.debug

Edit line 44 containing by default CONFIG_LOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL_ERROR=y to one of the following lines depending on your desired log level:

.. code-block:: bash

CONFIG_LOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL_NONE=y # No output CONFIG_LOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL_ERROR=y # Errors - default CONFIG_LOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL_WARN=y # Warnings CONFIG_LOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL_INFO=y # Info CONFIG_LOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL_DEBUG=y # Debug CONFIG_LOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL_VERBOSE=y # Verbose

Then simply build the libs for all SoCs or one specific SoC. Note that building for all SoCs takes a lot of time, so if you are working only with specific SoC(s), build only for those.

.. note:: If you have copied the defconfig file and the debug settings are in file configs/defconfig.debug add flag debug to compilation command. Example : ./build.sh debug

• Option 1: Build for all SoCs: ./build.sh

• Option 2: Build for one SoC: ./build.sh -t <soc>. The exact text to choose the SoC:

  • esp32
  • esp32s2
  • esp32c3
  • esp32s3
  • Example: ./build.sh -t esp32
  • A wrong format or non-existing SoC will result in the error sed: can't read sdkconfig: No such file or directory
