fprime-util

Format is: frpime-util "command"

generate

Generates the build files
Must be used at the beginning of every project before running build
Does not need to be re-run unless dependent libraries are changed
fprime-util generate -j $(nproc) - uses all cores to generate, takes much less time to build
Can add --ut to generate for [[Unit Tests]]

build

Must be run at the beginning of the project in order to use intelli sense
Compiles the current folder
- If run within Deployment folder, it will compile the code to create the executable file
- If run within Components folder, will create the "component name"Ai cpp, hpp, and xml files
Use --ut to build [[Unit Tests]]

new

Accepts 1 argument for what new item to create then gives a series of prompts to help you create said item
Options include: (remove the quotation marks when entering in bash)
- "--component"
- "--deployment"
- "--project"
- "--module"
Note, the fprime documentation mentions being able to use fprime-util new --port, but this is not actually supported. Instead, use --module and create the ports inside that module

purge

Deletes the build files
Often used if you messed something up and are getting weird errors that you don't understand

impl

Run within a specific component's directory
Creates .hpp-template and .cpp-template files based on the fpp file
Can be used with --ut to generate starting code for [[Unit Tests]]

fpp-check -u `filename`

Run inside Top folder of a deployment
Creates a file with a list of all unconnected ports
