Why we run Automated Builds for #BL602 SDK and #Mynewt ... On #PineCone and #Pinenut @PINE64

https://lupyuen.github.io/articles/gpio#automated-build-with-github-actions

@lopeztel Yep my port of Mynewt to BL602 should work on all BL602 boards. If you follow my (incomplete) article here...

https://lupyuen.github.io/articles/gpio#github-actions-workflow

It means that we can reuse the BL602 Microcontroller Package. For each BL602 board we just create a simple Board Support Package to define the things specific to the board, like LED GPIO.

There's still a lot more work to be done. I have ported only the GPIO part, we still need to do UART, I2C, SPI, ...

So if you're in a hurry, you might have to use the low level BL602 IoT SDK. Just that the code will be locked in to BL602 and won't run on other microcontrollers.

@chrysn Unfortunately the BL602 Rust HAL doesn't support I2C and SPI yet... So the more complex drivers won't work

BL602 Rust HAL in the works: https://github.com/sipeed/bl602-hal

Not sure about the current status of BL602 Rust HAL (I2C, SPI, etc)... But I could take the Rust Drivers for the sensors and host them on top of Mynewt... Like I did with PineTime previously 🤔

@chrysn But are the Embedded Rust drivers available 🤔
