Auterion Developer Tools Installation

Install auterion developer tools on the local development computer
The complete developer workflow is supported by Auterion on Ubuntu 20.04. Other Linux variants and Mac OS and Windows are experimental and documented in the file README.md of the Auterion Developer tools.
The workflow described here requires Auterion Enterprise PX4 2.2 or later to be installed. If you are running an older version of AEPX4, please refer to Software Update section for update instructions.
To get access to the Auterion Developer Tools in the "Skynode Developer" section the of the Auterion suite, you will need to request access to the Developer Program first, which can be done from within the linked tab.
To prepare the build environment and install all the dependencies and tools you will need to build and deploy an application for Auterion Enterprise PX4:
  1. 1.
    Open the Skynode Developer page in the Developer tab of the Auterion Suite in your browser. Download the Auterion Developer Tools (e.g. aepx4-developer-tools-2.X.X.zip) and unzip the file. Inside the extracted directory you will find all scripts and tools needed to work with Auterion Enterprise PX4.
  2. 2.
    Change into the unzipped directory and within the unzipped developer tools folder execute the setup command below
    # you might need to adapt the directory name
    cd aepx4-developer-tools-2.x.x
    ./setup
  3. 3.
    Follow the instructions on the screen. Don't forget to reboot your computer afterwards, particularly in order for the Unix user permissions to be applied properly.
