Thank you.

Your suggestion is very useful.

The best choice at the end is to have oneĀ  recipe every stable version of myapp.

So I can freeze the true production recipe for that version.

Maybe in the future the recipe myapp could be evolve with some enhancement which could not be compatible with older version.

Good idea.

Best regards,

MZ

I'm working with Krogoth.

I'd like to do this.

- I have my application added to yocto tree by its own recipe myapp_git.bb

This recipe get the source code from a local git repository setting
SRCREV for the last stable application source code.

SRCREV is fixed in myapp_git.bb


- I have the recipe for the final production image for the embedded
system  myos.bb, which declare

IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " myapp "

The myos.bb compiles myapp with the version declare in myapp_git.bb recipe


I'd like to do that

- prepare a base recipe myos-base.inc  where I define all I need the
produce the final image with

IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " myapp "

- prepare myos.bb recipe where I can fix the version of myapp.bb to a
prpduction version

- prepare myos-test.bb recipre where I can fix the HEAD branch of git
from I can download the  latest source code for test.


I try this

- inside myapp_git.bb I put SRCREV="${MYAPP_SRCREV}"

- inside myos.bb I set MYAPP_SRCREV="prodution-version-X" to download
the tag/branch production-version-X

- inside myos-test.bb I set MYAPP_SRCREV="${AUTOREV}" to download the
latest git commit
You cannot do this I'm afraid - in general you cannot set a variable in one
recipe that will be read by another. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Technical_FAQ#How_do_I_change_how_my_recipe_is_built_depending_on_what_image_I.27m_building.3F

The only real way to do what you're looking for is to have two different
recipes (where the name is actually different, not just the version). e.g. you
could have myapp_git.bb and myapp-test_git.bb. You could use a common
.inc file and "require" that from both .bb files in order to keep the common
parts in one place. Then you can specify the corresponding package name
in each image recipe.

Cheers,
Paul
