-title: Downloading AGL Software
----
-
-Once you have determined the build host can build an AGL image,
-you need to download the AGL source files.
-The AGL source files, which includes the Yocto Project layers, are
-maintained on the AGL Gerrit server.
-For information on how to create accounts for Gerrit, see the
-[Getting Started with AGL](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/start/getting-started)
-wiki page.
-
-**NOTE:** Further information about Download and Build AGL Source Code available at [AGL wiki](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/agl-distro/source-code).
-
-The remainder of this section provides steps on how to download the AGL source files:
-
-1. **Define Your Top-Level Directory:**
- You can define an environment variable as your top-level AGL workspace folder.
- Following is an example that defines the `$HOME/workspace_agl` folder using
- an environment variable named "AGL_TOP":
-
- ```sh
- $ export AGL_TOP=$HOME/AGL
- $ echo 'export AGL_TOP=$HOME/AGL' >> $HOME/.bashrc
- $ mkdir -p $AGL_TOP
- ```
-
-2. **Download the `repo` Tool and Set Permissions:**
- AGL Uses the `repo` tool for managing repositories.
- Use the following commands to download the tool and then set its
- permissions to allow for execution:
-
- ```sh
- $ mkdir -p $HOME/bin
- $ export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
- $ echo 'export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH' >> $HOME/.bashrc
- $ curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > $HOME/bin/repo
- $ chmod a+x $HOME/bin/repo
- ```
-
- **NOTE:** See the
- "[Repo Command Reference](https://source.android.com/setup/develop/repo)"
- for more information on the `repo` tool.
-
-3. **Download the AGL Source Files:**
- Depending on your development goals, you can either download the
- latest stable AGL release branch, or the "cutting-edge" (i.e. "master"
- branch) files.
-
- * **Stable Release:**
- Using the latest stable release gives you a solid snapshot of the
- latest know release.
- The release is static, tested, and known to work.
- To download the [latest stable release branch](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/agl-distro/release-notes#latest_stable_release), use
- the following commands:
-
- **Note:** In this below command please change the branch name to the [latest stable release branch](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/agl-distro/release-notes#latest_stable_release). For example, for Nifty Needlefish branch use the last name i.e. "needlefish" as branch.
-
-
- ```sh
- $ cd $AGL_TOP
- $ mkdir <<branch name>>
- $ cd <<branch name>>
- $ repo init -b <<branch name>> -u https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/AGL/AGL-repo
- $ repo sync
- ```
-
- * **Cutting-Edge Files:**
- Using the "cutting-edge" AGL files gives you a snapshot of the
- "master" branch.
- The resulting local repository you download is dynamic and changes frequently depending on community contributions.
- The advantage of using "cutting-edge" AGL files is that you have the
- absolute latest features, which are often under development, for AGL.
-
- To download the "cutting-edge" AGL files, use the following commands:
-
- ```sh
- $ cd $AGL_TOP
- $ mkdir master
- $ cd master
- $ repo init -u https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/AGL/AGL-repo
- $ repo sync
- ```
-
- Once you `sync` the repository, you have the AGL files in the form of
- "layers" (e.g. `meta-*` folders).
- You also have the `poky` repository in your AGL workspace.
-
- Listing out the resulting directory structure appears as follows:
-
- ```sh
- $ tree -L 1
- .
- ├── bsp
- ├── external
- ├── meta-agl
- ├── meta-agl-cluster-demo
- ├── meta-agl-demo
- ├── meta-agl-devel
- ├── meta-agl-extra
- └── meta-agl-telematics-demo
- ```
