Integrate the deploying script into L1 target's hob. Need separate GUI triggered by HOB
We have workable scripts and the basical UI designed by Belen. Now we need to integrate into Hob2.
Deployment was already in the master.
QA tested the deploy function in Hob against 1.2 M4 RC1, it could work.
There is no commit ID in the comments. Bug 1738 doesn't appear anywhere in the poky git log that I could find. There is nothing in this bug that mentions how to use the new tool. What is the commit ID of the fix? What is the command of the GUI image writer?
Its part of Hob, you start up hob and select "My Images", then select your image to either run or deploy. Not a separate tool (I thought it would be separate also)
So if you have an existing image you have to start hob and wait for bitbake to parse recipes before you can write the image? If you are running Linux and would like a convenient way to write images you've downloaded and you don't have a poky environment setup, you can't use the graphical image writer? That doesn't make sense. Shall I reopen this bug or open a new one?

If you are running Linux and Shane and Dongxiao actually helped to implement this tool that is built-in with hob. Shand, Dongxiao, is it possible to implement "lazy-parsing" for a quicker startup of hob here? > would like a convenient way to write images you've downloaded and you don't > have a poky environment setup, you can't use the graphical image writer? hmm, I have to admit Darren's concern makes sense. Shane, Dongxiao, is it possible to make the core logic and/or UI into a shared python module or something so that a separate new tool can also re-use the those? > That doesn't make sense. > > Shall I reopen this bug or open a new one? Darren, thanks for the comments! Let's wait for Shane and Dongxiao's comments.
