Command line compiling and uploading (or just uploading BIN file) - arduino zero

Official Hardware Classic Zero
1

Hello,

I would like to compile and upload (or just upload BIN file) arduino sketch from the command line .
I found this website: Arduino/manpage.adoc at master · arduino/Arduino · GitHub

I tried to change the board, cpu and avr to sam, but it still doesn't work. What I should do to adjust it to the arduino zero native usb port?

Any idea?

Zero is samd, not sam

Thanks for your help.

This is my command:

arduino --board arduino:samd:arduino_zero_native:cpu=48000000L --port COM11 --upload "C:\Users\Itay Dagan\Documents\Arduino\Blink\Blink.ino"

And I still have a problem - I attached a photo

What version of the SAMD boards package are you using? I have 1.6.2 installed and there is no cpu menu. It looks like you meant to specify f_cpu but there is no menu for that either. The parameters part of the --board option should only be used to specify the desired selection when there is a custom Tools menu for the selected board. So try:
arduino --board arduino:samd:arduino_zero_native --port COM11 --upload "C:\Users\Itay Dagan\Documents\Arduino\Blink\Blink.ino"

Thanks! It is working!

Do you also know how to upload a sketch without compiling?

Glad to hear you got it working!

I'm not very familiar with the Zero but what I'd do is turn on verbose output during upload in File > Preferences and then upload a sketch in the IDE. Then you should be able to just copy the command that is used for the upload. This works fine for me with avrdude commands for AVR boards so it should be the same for Zero. It won't be done by the arduino.exe command line but rather the tool that is used for uploading to the Zero.
