![]() If the user runs devtool add on an npm:// URL (or source tree that uses node.js), and npm is not available, just build nodejs-native instead of telling the user they need to do it; if that fails because there isn't any such recipe (which would be the default, since it's not in OE-Core) then produce a slightly more readable error message hinting at what the user needs to do. Note that this forces the use of nodejs-native rather than npm on the host - this makes sense for two reasons: (1) we need it to be compatible with nodejs for the target, and (2) we have to have a recipe for that anyway, so allowing you to avoid having a recipe for the native version isn't really beneficial. There's a bit of a hack in here in order to allow this - for node.js sources that aren't fetched via npm we don't know that they are that until we've fetched and unpacked them, by which time we're inside recipetool and have an active tinfoil instance that will prevent bitbake being run. To avoid this being an issue, we allow recipetool to get to the point where we know we need npm and then exit with a specific exit code, at which point devtool can try to build it and then if that succeeds, it will re-execute recipetool. This is definitely not ideal, but it can't really be refactored and done properly until we do the tinfoil2 refactoring; in the mean time though we still want to be helpful to the user.

Poky
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged build system and development environment. It features support for building customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with DISTRO = "nodistro") and contains only emulated machine support.
For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Where to Send Patches
As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer), patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams:
bitbake: Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/ Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
documentation: Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/ Mailing list: yocto@yoctoproject.org
meta-poky, meta-yocto-bsp: Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto(-bsp) Mailing list: poky@yoctoproject.org
Everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list. If in doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git repository.
Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix of oe-core and poky-specific files.
