This is an experimental platform to allow the use of SparkFun's Arduino framework in PlatformIO.

As this is experimental, it requires a manual install.

Platform-apollo3blue now supports the following:

1. Frameworks:
   • Arduino - sparkfun/Arduino_Apollo3
     • Core V1
     • Core V2
   • Ambiq Suit SDK - sparkfun/AmbiqSuiteSDK
2. Tools:
   • Segger JLink with platformio
     • Upload protocol
     • Debugger

To specify which framework and version to use, see below or a more detailed example.

Here we document the quickest way to get started using platform-apollo3blue.

$ pio platform install git+https://github.com/nigelb/platform-apollo3blue

The quickest and easiest way to install Arduino_Apollo3 is to create a project and specify the version as a git repo.

$ mkdir new_project
$ cd new_project

And then either:

$ pio init -b SparkFun_RedBoard_Artemis_ATP -O"platform_packages=framework-arduinoapollo3@https://github.com/sparkfun/Arduino_Apollo3#v2.2.0"

or:

Until the version number is bumped for the core v1 branch, I am maintaining a fork of it here with the required updates.

$ pio init -b SparkFun_RedBoard_Artemis_ATP -O"platform_packages=framework-arduinoapollo3@https://github.com/nigelb/Arduino_Apollo3#v1.2.1_pio"

If you don't want to use my forked repo, or you want to be able to have concurrent projects that use core v1 and core v2 without having platformio reinstall Arduino_Apollo each time, you can manually install both version of the cores.

See the Manual Installation and Using Multiple Versions of Arduino_Apollo3.
