TMS320F280039C: Build and flash thru headless Linux machine

Part Number: TMS320F280039C
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, CCSTUDIO,

I'm trying to set up a CI system for F280039 based board. Is there any standard Docker image for building C2000 firmware? I've found a few different files out there but no official build support. Also, is there a pure command line utility for flashing a binary? I've found Uniflash but it seems like that requires the setup be through a GUI and would not work for CI systems.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

I can't commend on any docker image but CCS comes with a command line interface for building CCS projects from the command line:

CCS comes with a command line loader which can be used:

Thanks for the info, that solved my problem. The commands get a little long and convoluted but it works for me:
```

# Build

shane@shane:./eclipse/eclipse -noSplash -data "/home/shane/workspace_v12/" -application com.ti.ccstudio.apps.projectBuild -ccs.projects universal_motorcontrol_lab_f28003x

# Load

shane@shane:/opt/ti/ccs1240/ccs$ ./ccs_base/scripting/examples/loadti/loadti.sh -c ~/Desktop/repos/c2000_firmware/TMS320F280039C_LaunchPad.ccxml -l ~/Desktop/repos/c2000_firmware/Flash_lib_DRV8323RH_3SC/universal_motorcontrol_lab_f28003x.out

```
