*******************************************************
Standard Setup of Toolchain for Linux (Legacy GNU Make)
*******************************************************

.. include:: ../gnu-make-legacy.rst
Install Prerequisites
=====================
To compile with ESP-IDF you need to get the following packages:
- CentOS 7::
sudo yum install gcc git wget make flex bison gperf python python2-cryptography
- Ubuntu and Debian::
sudo apt-get install gcc git wget make flex bison gperf python python-pip python-setuptools python-serial python-cryptography python-future python-pyparsing python-pyelftools
- Arch::
sudo pacman -S --needed gcc git make flex bison gperf python2-pyserial python2-cryptography python2-future python2-pyparsing python2-pyelftools
.. note::
Some older Linux distributions may be missing some of the Python packages listed above (or may use ``pyserial`` version 2.x which is not supported by ESP-IDF). It is possible to install these packages via ``pip`` instead - as described in section :ref:`get-started-get-packages-legacy`.
Toolchain Setup
===============
.. include:: /_build/inc/download-links.inc
ESP32 toolchain for Linux is available for download from Espressif website:
- for 64-bit Linux:
|download_link_linux64|
- for 32-bit Linux:
|download_link_linux32|
1. Download this file, then extract it in ``~/esp`` directory:
- for 64-bit Linux:
.. include:: /_build/inc/unpack-code-linux64.inc
- for 32-bit Linux:
.. include:: /_build/inc/unpack-code-linux32.inc
.. _setup-linux-toolchain-add-it-to-path-legacy:
2. The toolchain will be extracted into ``~/esp/xtensa-esp32-elf/`` directory.
To use it, you will need to update your ``PATH`` environment variable in ``~/.profile`` file. To make ``xtensa-esp32-elf`` available for all terminal sessions, add the following line to your ``~/.profile`` file::
export PATH="$HOME/esp/xtensa-esp32-elf/bin:$PATH"
Alternatively, you may create an alias for the above command. This way you can get the toolchain only when you need it. To do this, add different line to your ``~/.profile`` file::
alias get_esp32='export PATH="$HOME/esp/xtensa-esp32-elf/bin:$PATH"'
Then when you need the toolchain you can type ``get_esp32`` on the command line and the toolchain will be added to your ``PATH``.
.. note::
If you have ``/bin/bash`` set as login shell, and both ``.bash_profile`` and ``.profile`` exist, then update ``.bash_profile`` instead. In CentOS, ``alias`` should set in ``.bashrc``.
3. Log off and log in back to make the ``.profile`` changes effective. Run the following command to verify if ``PATH`` is correctly set::
printenv PATH
You are looking for similar result containing toolchain's path at the beginning of displayed string::
$ printenv PATH
/home/user-name/esp/xtensa-esp32-elf/bin:/home/user-name/bin:/home/user-name/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin
Instead of ``/home/user-name`` there should be a home path specific to your installation.
Permission issues /dev/ttyUSB0
------------------------------
With some Linux distributions you may get the ``Failed to open port /dev/ttyUSB0`` error message when flashing the ESP32. :ref:`This can be solved by adding the current user to the dialout group<linux-dialout-group-legacy>`.
Next Steps
==========
To carry on with development environment setup, proceed to section :ref:`get-started-get-esp-idf-legacy`.
