Software

The sdrangelove code can be checked out with: {{{
git clone git://git.osmocom.org/FIXME.git
}}}

It can also be browsed on http://cgit.osmocom.org/cgit/sdrangelove/

If you are going to "fork it on github" and enhance it, please '''contribute back''' and submit your patches to: osmocom-sdr at lists.osmocom.org. The amount (and quality) of contribution from the commmunity '''will have a direct impact''' on the availability of new features.

=== Mailing List ===

We discuss sdrangelove on the following mailing list: osmocom-sdr at lists.osmocom.org.

You can subscribe and/or unsubscribe via the following link: [http://lists.osmocom.org/mailman/listinfo/osmocom-sdr]

=== Building the software ===

==== sdrangelove ====

'''You have to install development packages for libusb1.0''' to build the software.

Sdrangelove comes with built-in support for OsmoSDR and rtl-sdr. Additional hardware support is available through a gr-osmosdr plugin which will be built automaticaly if gr-osmosdr has been installed (see below for guidance).

Building with cmake: {{{
cd sdrangelove/
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make
}}}

Running it:

{{{
cd sdrangelove
cd build/
./sdrangelove
}}}

==== Gnuradio Source ====

'''The Gnu Radio source requires a recent gnuradio (>= v3.7) to be installed.'''

The source supports direct device operation as well as a tcp client mode when using the rtl_tcp utility as a spectrum server.

Please note: prior pulling a new version from git and compiling it, please do a "make uninstall" from build directory first to properly remove the previous version.

Please note: you always should build & '''install the latest version of the dependencies''' before trying to build the gr source. The build system of gr-osmosdr will recognize them and enable specific source/sink components thereafter.

Building with cmake (as described in the [https://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/GrOsmoSDR gr-osmosdr wiki page]):

{{{
git clone git://git.osmocom.org/gr-osmosdr
cd gr-osmosdr/
}}}

then continue with

{{{
mkdir build
cd build/
cmake ../
}}}

Now cmake should print out a summary of enabled/disabled components. You may disable certain components by following guidelines shown by cmake. Make sure the device of your interest is listed here. Check your dependencies and retry otherwise. {{{

}}}

Now build & install {{{
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
}}}

==== Automated installation ====

Marcus D. Leech has kindly integrated the forementioned build steps into his gnuradio installation script at [http://www.sbrac.org/files/build-gnuradio]. This is the most user-friendly option so far.

You also may try the ByBOMBS developed by gnuradio.org folks.
