Core Install from Additional URL

Hello!

I was just wondering if there was a way for the CLI to install boards from an additional url. In the 1.8.X GUI there was a way to add an additional board URL in the preferences and then install the board from the manager.

is there a way to do that with the cli? Something like:

arduino-cli core install MiniCore --additional-urls <url here>

That doesn't seem to work with the minicore package on a raspberry pi.

Thanks!

Hi @kevinlutzer

Yes, like that. But you must use the correct ID of the "core" in the command.

You can learn the IDs of the available cores using the arduino-cli core list --all command:

$ ./arduino-cli core list --all --additional-urls https://mcudude.github.io/MiniCore/package_MCUdude_MiniCore_index.json
