LLGo Embedded Development Command Line Options

Flags

• -o <file> - Specify output file name
• -target <platform> - Specify target platform for cross-compilation
• -file-format <format> - Convert to specified format (requires -target)
  • Supported: elf (default), bin, hex, uf2, zip, img
• -emulator - Run using emulator (auto-detects required format)
• -port <port> - Target port for flashing, testing, or monitoring
• -baudrate <rate> - Baudrate for serial communication (default: 115200)

Commands

llgo build

Compile program to output file.

• No -target: Native executable
• With -target: ELF executable (or -file-format if specified)

llgo run

Compile and run program.

• No -target: Run locally
• With -target: Run on device or emulator (equivalent to install + monitor)

llgo test

Compile and run tests.

• No -target: Run tests locally
• With -target: Run tests on device or emulator
• Supports -emulator and -port flags

llgo install

Install program or flash to device.

• No -target: Install to $GOPATH/bin
• With -target: Flash to device (use -port to specify port)

llgo monitor

Monitor serial output from embedded device.

• -port <device>: Serial port device (e.g., /dev/ttyUSB0, COM3)
• -target <platform>: Auto-detect port from target configuration
• -baudrate <rate>: Communication speed (default: 115200)
• [executable]: Optional ELF file for debug info (panic address resolution)

Features:

• Real-time bidirectional serial communication
• Automatic port detection from target configuration
• Debug info integration for panic address resolution
• Cross-platform support (Linux, macOS, Windows)
• Graceful exit with Ctrl-C

Examples

# Native development
llgo build hello.go                              # -> hello
llgo build -o myapp hello.go                     # -> myapp
llgo run hello.go                                # run locally
llgo install hello.go                            # install to bin

# Cross-compilation
llgo build -target esp32 .                       # -> hello (ELF)
llgo build -target esp32 -file-format bin .      # -> hello.bin
llgo run -target esp32 .                         # run on ESP32 (guess a port)
llgo run -target esp32 -emulator .               # run in emulator
llgo test -target esp32 -port /dev/ttyUSB0 .     # run tests on device
llgo test -target esp32 -emulator .              # run tests in emulator
llgo install -target esp32 -port /dev/ttyUSB0 .  # flash to specific port

# Monitor device output
llgo monitor -port /dev/ttyUSB0                  # monitor with specific port
llgo monitor -target esp32                       # monitor with auto-detected port
llgo monitor -target esp32 -baudrate 9600        # custom baudrate
llgo monitor -port /dev/ttyUSB0 ./firmware.elf   # with debug info for panic resolution
