arduino-builder

Compile arduino sketches. DEPRECATION WARNING: This tool is being phased out in favor of arduino. More information: https://github.com/arduino/arduino-builder.

• Compile a sketch:

arduino-builder -compile {{path/to/sketch.ino}}

• Specify the debug level (default: 5):

arduino-builder -debug-level {{1..10}}

• Specify a custom build directory:

arduino-builder -build-path {{path/to/build_directory}}

• Use a build option file, instead of specifying --hardware, --tools, etc. manually every time:

arduino-builder -build-options-file {{path/to/build.options.json}}

• Enable verbose mode:

arduino-builder -verbose {{true}}
