Install CANopen package in yocto - yocto

Question

I have tried installing CANopen in yocto using below command. But the CANOpen is not getting installed.
bitbake canopensocket_git
In local.conf file I had added
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL += " canopensocket_git "
How I can install canopen package?
Any input is also considered.

Answer 1

First of all, that's a syntax error canopensocket_git.
The recipe name ${PN} is canopensocket and every thing after the_ is the version number ${PV}.
So, you need to only specify the recipe name. Or if you have different versions you can specify one by:
PREFERRED_VERSION_canopensocket = "version_here"
That being said, I found a recipe for canopensocket in here.
But if fails and it is not updated with latest github commit.
I did some modifications on it, here is my recipe:
SUMMARY = "Linux CANOpen tools"
DESCRIPTION = "Linux CANOpen Protocol Stack Tools"
LICENSE = "GPLv2"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://gpl-2.0.txt;md5=b234ee4d69f5fce4486a80fdaf4a4263"
SRC_URI = "git://github.com/CANopenNode/CANopenSocket.git"
SRCREV = "ec9735165502e08b5d2e84d641833709b6faeb96"
S = "${WORKDIR}/git"
do_compile_prepend() {
cd ${S}
git submodule init
git submodule update
}
do_compile() {
cd ${S}/cocomm
make
cd ${S}/canopencgi
make
}
do_install(){
install -d ${D}${bindir}
install -m 0755 ${S}/cocomm/cocomm ${D}${bindir}
install -m 0755 ${S}/canopencgi/canopen.cgi ${D}${bindir}
}
FILES_${PN} += "${bindir}/*"
I modified do_compile, do_install and added the packaging of FILES.
And I set SRCREV to the latest v4 tag commit instead of AUTOREV.
I do not know what this recipe does, but I compiled it and the build was okay for me on a zeus build.
The build produced two binaries: cocomm and canopen.cgi .
No if you want to install it to your image, add this to you cutom image recipe:
IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " canopensocket"
