Arch Linux and Arduino with your favorite IDE

You can edit your Arduino code from any IDE and compile it / upload it without using the Arduino IDE. To do that, the ino tool comes to the rescue.

If you are using Arch Linux you might be interested to know I uploaded a package named ino-1.6-git on AUR. It has been patched to work with the latest version of the Arduino SDK.

Installation

yaourt ino-1.6-git
sudo gpasswd -a $USER tty
sudo gpasswd -a $USER uucp
sudo gpasswd -a $USER lock

Log out and in again, or reboot.

Quick Start:

cd my-arduino-project
ino init
$EDITOR src/sketch.ino
ino build
ino upload

Happy Arduino-ing!
