Configuration Settings
======================
The availability of the above commands depends upon features that may or
may not be enabled in the NuttX configuration file. The following
:ref:`cmdtable ` indicates the dependency of each command on
NuttX configuration settings. General configuration settings are
discussed in the NuttX Porting Guide.
Configuration settings specific to NSH as discussed at the
:ref:`cmdbottom ` of this document.
Note that in addition to general NuttX configuration settings, each NSH
command can be individually disabled via the settings in the rightmost
column. All of these settings make the configuration of NSH potentially
complex but also allow it to squeeze into very small memory footprints.

Built-In Command Dependencies on Configuration Settings
=======================================================
All built-in applications require that support for NSH built-in
applications has been enabled. This support is enabled with
``CONFIG_BUILTIN=y`` and ``CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS=y``.

NSH-Specific Configuration Settings
===================================
The behavior of NSH can be modified with the following settings in the
``boards////defconfig`` file:
=================================== ==================================
Configuration Description
=================================== ==================================
``CONFIG_NSH_READLINE`` Selects the minimal implementation of ``readline()``.
This minimal implementation provides on backspace for command
line editing. It expects some minimal VT100 command support from the terminal.
``CONFIG_NSH_CLE`` Selects the more extensive, EMACS-like command line editor.
Select this option only if (1) you don't mind a modest increase
in the FLASH footprint, and (2) you work with a terminal that
supports extensive VT100 editing commands. Selecting this option
will add probably 1.5-2KB to the FLASH footprint.
``CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS`` Support external registered, "builtin" applications that can
be executed from the NSH command line (see apps/README.txt for
more information). This required ``CONFIG_BUILTIN`` to enable
NuttX support for "builtin" applications.
``CONFIG_NSH_FILEIOSIZE`` Size of a static I/O buffer used for file access (ignored if there
is no file system). Default is 1024.
``CONFIG_NSH_STRERROR`` ``strerror(errno)`` makes more readable output but
``strerror()`` is very large and will not be used unless this
setting is *y*. This setting depends upon the ``strerror()``
having been enabled with ``CONFIG_LIBC_STRERROR``.
``CONFIG_NSH_LINELEN`` The maximum length of one command line and of one output line.
Default: 80
``CONFIG_NSH_DISABLE_SEMICOLON`` By default, you can enter multiple NSH commands on a line
with each command separated by a semicolon. You can disable this
feature to save a little memory on FLASH challenged platforms.
Default: n
``CONFIG_NSH_CMDPARMS`` If selected, then the output from commands, from file applications,
and from NSH built-in commands can be used as arguments to other
commands. The entity to be executed is identified by
enclosing the command line in back quotes. For example::
set FOO `myprogram $BAR`
will execute the program named ``myprogram`` passing it the
value of the environment variable ``BAR``. The value of the
environment variable ``FOO`` is then set output of ``myprogram``
on ``stdout``. Because this feature commits significant
resources, it is disabled by default. The ``CONFIG_NSH_CMDPARMS`` interim
output will be retained in a temporary file. Full path to a
directory where temporary files can be created is taken from
``CONFIG_LIBC_TMPDIR`` and it defaults to ``/tmp`` if
``CONFIG_LIBC_TMPDIR`` is not set.
``CONFIG_NSH_MAXARGUMENTS`` The maximum number of NSH command arguments. Default: 6
``CONFIG_NSH_ARGCAT`` Support concatenation of strings with environment variables or
command output. For example::
set FOO XYZ
set BAR 123
set FOOBAR ABC_${FOO}_${BAR}
would set the environment variable ``FOO`` to ``XYZ``,
``BAR`` to ``123`` and ``FOOBAR`` to ``ABC_XYZ_123``. If
``CONFIG_NSH_ARGCAT`` is not selected, then a slightly small
FLASH footprint results but then also only simple environment
variables like ``$FOO`` can be used on the command line.
``CONFIG_NSH_VARS`` By default, there are no internal NSH variables. NSH will use OS
environment variables for all variable storage. If this option,
NSH will also support local NSH variables. These variables are,
for the most part, transparent and work just like the OS
environment variables. The difference is that when you
create new tasks, all of environment variables are
inherited by the created tasks. NSH local variables are not.
If this option is enabled (and ``CONFIG_DISABLE_ENVIRON`` is not),
then a new command called 'export' is enabled. The export
command works very must like the set command except that is
operates on environment variables. When CONFIG_NSH_VARS
is enabled, there are changes in the behavior of certain commands.
See following :ref:`cmdtable `.
``CONFIG_NSH_QUOTE`` Enables back-slash quoting of certain characters within the
command. This option is useful for the case where an NSH script
is used to dynamically generate a new NSH script. In that case,
commands must be treated as simple text strings without
interpretation of any special characters. Special characters
such as ``$``, :literal:`\``, ``"``, and others must be
retained intact as part of the test string. This option is
currently only available is ``CONFIG_NSH_ARGCAT`` is also
selected.
``CONFIG_NSH_NESTDEPTH`` The maximum number of nested ``if-then[-else]-fi`` <#conditional>`__
sequences that are permissible. Default: 3
``CONFIG_NSH_DISABLESCRIPT`` This can be set to *y* to suppress support for scripting.
This setting disables the ```sh`` <#cmdsh>`__,
```test`` <#cmdtest>`__, and ```[`` <#cmtest>`__ commands and
the ```if-then[-else]-fi`` <#conditional>`__
construct. This would only be set on systems where a minimal
footprint is a necessity and scripting is not.
``CONFIG_NSH_DISABLE_ITEF`` If scripting is enabled, then then this option can be selected
to suppress support for ``if-then-else-fi`` sequences in
scripts. This would only be set on systems where some minimal
scripting is required but ``if-then-else-fi`` is not.
``CONFIG_NSH_DISABLE_LOOPS`` If scripting is enabled, then then this option can be selected
suppress support ``for while-do-done`` and
``until-do-done`` sequences in scripts. This would only be set
on systems where some minimal scripting is required but looping
is not.
``CONFIG_NSH_DISABLEBG`` This can be set to *y* to suppress support for background
commands. This setting disables the ```nice`` <#cmdoverview>`__
command prefix and the ```&`` <#cmdoverview>`__ command
suffix. This would only be set on systems where a minimal footprint
is a necessity and background command execution is not.
``CONFIG_NSH_MMCSDMINOR`` If the architecture supports an MMC/SD slot and if the NSH
architecture specific logic is present, this option will provide
the MMC/SD minor number, i.e., the MMC/SD block driver will be
registered as ``/dev/mmcsd``\ *N* where *N* is the minor number.
Default is zero.
``CONFIG_NSH_CONSOLE`` If ``CONFIG_NSH_CONSOLE`` is set to *y*, then a serial console
front-end is selected.
Normally, the serial console device is a UART and RS-232
interface. However, if ``CONFIG_USBDEV`` is defined,
then a USB serial device may, instead, be used if the one of
the following are defined:
- ``CONFIG_PL2303`` and ``CONFIG_PL2303_CONSOLE``.
Sets up the Prolifics PL2303 emulation as a console device
at ``/dev/console``.
- ``CONFIG_CDCACM`` and ``CONFIG_CDCACM_CONSOLE``.
Sets up the CDC/ACM serial device as a console device at
``/dev/console``.
- ``CONFIG_NSH_USBCONSOLE``. If defined, then an arbitrary USB
device may be used to as the NSH console. In this case,
``CONFIG_NSH_USBCONDEV`` must be defined to indicate which
USB device to use as the console. The advantage of
using a device other that ``/dev/console`` is that
normal debug output can then use ``/dev/console`` while NSH
uses ``CONFIG_NSH_USBCONDEV``.
``CONFIG_NSH_USBCONDEV``. If ``CONFIG_NSH_USBCONSOLE`` is
set to 'y', then ``CONFIG_NSH_USBCONDEV`` must also be set to select the USB
device used to support the NSH console. This should be set to
the quoted name of a readable/write-able USB driver
such as: ``CONFIG_NSH_USBCONDEV="/dev/ttyACM0"``.
If there are more than one USB slots, then a USB device minor
number may also need to be provided:
- ``CONFIG_NSH_UBSDEV_MINOR``: The minor device number of the USB device. Default: 0
If USB tracing is enabled (``CONFIG_USBDEV_TRACE``), then
NSH will initialize USB tracing as requested by the following.
Default: Only USB errors are traced.
- ``CONFIG_NSH_USBDEV_TRACEINIT``: Show initialization events
- ``CONFIG_NSH_USBDEV_TRACECLASS``: Show class driver events
- ``CONFIG_NSH_USBDEV_TRACETRANSFERS``: Show data transfer events
- ``CONFIG_NSH_USBDEV_TRACECONTROLLER``: Show controller events
- ``CONFIG_NSH_USBDEV_TRACEINTERRUPTS``: Show interrupt-related events.
``CONFIG_NSH_ALTCONDEV`` and If ``CONFIG_NSH_CONSOLE`` is set ``CONFIG_NSH_CONDEV``
to *y*, then ``CONFIG_NSH_ALTCONDEV`` may also
be selected to enable use of an alternate character device to
support the NSH console. If ``CONFIG_NSH_ALTCONDEV`` is
selected, then ``CONFIG_NSH_CONDEV`` holds the
quoted name of a readable/write-able character
driver such as: ``CONFIG_NSH_CONDEV="/dev/ttyS1"``.
This is useful, for example, to separate the NSH command line
from the system console when the system console is used to provide
debug output. Default: ``stdin`` and ``stdout`` (probably
"``/dev/console``")
- **NOTE 1:** When any other device other than
``/dev/console`` is used for a user interface, (1) linefeeds
(``\n``) will not be expanded to carriage return / linefeeds
(``\r\n``). You will need to configure your terminal
program to account for this.
And (2) input is not automatically echoed so you
will have to turn local echo on.
- **NOTE 2:** This option forces the console of all sessions to
use NSH_CONDEV. Hence, this option only makes sense for a
system that supports only a single session. This option
is, in particular, incompatible with Telnet
sessions because each Telnet session must use a different
console device.
``CONFIG_NSH_TELNET`` If ``CONFIG_NSH_TELNET`` is set to *y*, then a TELNET server
front-end is selected. When this option is provided, you may log
into NuttX remotely using telnet in order to access NSH.
``CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT`` Set ``CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT`` if your board provides architecture
specific initialization via the board-specific function
``board_app_initialize()``. This function will be called early in
NSH initialization to allow board logic to do such things as
configure MMC/SD slots.

================== =================================== =============================================
If Telnet is selected for the NSH console, then we must configure the
resources used by the Telnet daemon and by the Telnet clients.
=========================================== ================================
Configuration Description
=========================================== ================================
``CONFIG_SYSTEM_TELNETD_PORT`` The telnet daemon will listen on this TCP port number for connections. Default: 23
``CONFIG_SYSTEM_TELNETD_PRIORITY`` Priority of the Telnet daemon. Default: ``SCHED_PRIORITY_DEFAULT``
``CONFIG_SYSTEM_TELNETD_STACKSIZE`` Stack size allocated for the Telnet daemon. Default: 2048
``CONFIG_SYSTEM_TELNETD_SESSION_PRIORITY`` Priority of the Telnet client. Default: ``SCHED_PRIORITY_DEFAULT``
``CONFIG_SYSTEM_TELNETD_SESSION_STACKSIZE`` Stack size allocated for the Telnet client. Default: 2048
=========================================== ================================
One or both of ``CONFIG_NSH_CONSOLE`` and ``CONFIG_NSH_TELNET`` must be
defined. If ``CONFIG_NSH_TELNET`` is selected, then there some other
configuration settings that apply:
====================================== ================================
Configuration Description
====================================== ================================
``CONFIG_NET=y`` Of course, networking must be enabled.
``CONFIG_NET_TCP=y`` TCP/IP support is required for telnet (as well as various other
TCP-related configuration settings).
``CONFIG_NSH_DHCPC`` Obtain the IP address via DHCP.
``CONFIG_NSH_IPADDR`` If ``CONFIG_NSH_DHCPC`` is NOT set, then the static IP address must be
provided.
``CONFIG_NSH_DRIPADDR`` Default router IP address
``CONFIG_NSH_NETMASK`` Network mask
``CONFIG_NSH_NOMAC`` Set if your Ethernet hardware has no built-in MAC address. If set, a
bogus MAC will be assigned.
``CONFIG_NSH_MAX_ROUNDTRIP`` This is the maximum round trip for a response to a ICMP ECHO request. It
is in units of deciseconds. The default is 20 (2 seconds).
====================================== ================================
If you use DHCPC, then some special configuration network options are
required. These include:
============================================== ============================================================
Configuration Description
============================================== ============================================================
``CONFIG_NET=y`` Of course, networking must be enabled.
``CONFIG_NET_UDP=y`` UDP support is required for DHCP (as well as various other
UDP-related configuration settings).
``CONFIG_NET_BROADCAST=y`` UDP broadcast support is needed.
``CONFIG_NET_ETH_PKTSIZE=650`` (or larger) Per RFC2131 (p. 9), the DHCP client must be prepared to receive
DHCP messages of up to 576 bytes (excluding Ethernet, IP, or
UDP headers and FCS). NOTE: Note that the actual MTU setting
will depend upon the specific link protocol. Here Ethernet
is indicated.
============================================== ============================================================
If ``CONFIG_ETC_ROMFS`` is selected, then the following additional
configuration setting apply:
============================== ==============================================================
Configuration Description
============================== ==============================================================
``CONFIG_NSH_SYSINITSCRIPT`` This is the relative path to the system init script within the
mountpoint. The default is ``"init.d/rc.sysinit"``. This is a relative
path and must not start with '``/``' but must be enclosed in quotes.
``CONFIG_NSH_INITSCRIPT`` This is the relative path to the startup script within the
mountpoint. The default is ``"init.d/rcS"``. This is a relative
path and must not start with '``/``' but must be enclosed in quotes.
============================== ==============================================================
