CODECOMPOSER: Installing CCS 20.2.0 into a Docker container

Part Number: CODECOMPOSER

Tool/software:

Hi Folks -

We are using Code Composer Studio 20.2.0 to build our MSP430 project. I recently discovered the documentation on building projects from the command line, and it's been great for our team to be able to quickly run builds without starting up the IDE. As a next step, I'm trying to get the CCS build tools installed inside a Docker container image so we can run these builds from our CI/CD pipeline.

Doing some research around the forums, I've discovered the options to run the installer from the command line in unattended mode. This is the current command we are working with:

CCS_20.2.0.00012_linux/ccs_setup_20.2.0.00012.run \
  --unattendedmodeui none --mode unattended --prefix /opt/ti/ccs --enable-components PF_MSP430,PF_MSP432

The install is failing on one of the components that appears to require access to udev:

Script output:
 Problem running post-install step. Installation may not complete correctly
 Error running /opt/ti/ccs/ccs/ccs_base/emulation/Blackhawk/Install/bh_driver_install.sh --install: cp: cannot create regular file '/etc/udev/rules.d/71-bh-permissions.rules': No such file or directory

The purpose of this container is only to build the code, so we do not need any components related to JTAG or device debugging, but I cannot figure out how to disable them during the install. Does anyone have experience with setting up this version inside a Docker container for CI builds?

Our container image is currently based on Ubuntu 24.04.

    Thank you for the reference and apologies that I did not find it these posts searching the forums.

    I've managed to get past the install successfully by "faking" udev as follows in the container build:

    ln -s /bin/true /usr/local/bin/udevadm \
  && ln -s /bin/true /sbin/start_udev \
  && mkdir -p /etc/udev/rules.d

    We will watch intently for a resolution to this: https://sir.ext.ti.com/jira/browse/EXT_EP-12145

    Even though the installer is now completing successfully, CCS doesn't appear to be properly installed.

    Running a CLI build appears to do nothing like the CCS binary isn't actually running:

    $ ccs-server-cli.sh -noSplash -workspace /tmp/workspace -application projectBuild -ccs.buildType clean
Building workspace: /tmp/workspace/...

Job found still running after platform shutdown.  Jobs should be canceled by the plugin that scheduled them during shutdown: com.ti.ccs.project.devices.DeviceModelLoader$InitializationJob$2

    Does the unattended installer verify that all the necessary dependencies are installed in the environment? If not, is there a complete list in the documentation somewhere?

    Never mind on this, it was an unrelated problem to the way the Theia workspace was set up. With the previous change, we can successfully invoke the build tools inside a container.
