Installing Microchip Tools via podman or docker

Download the Libero and SoftConsole installers

  • Download Libero from here.
  • Place it in ./installers/
  • Download SoftConsole from here.
  • Place it in ./installers/

Unzip libero:

cd installers
unzip Libero_soc_*.*_web_lin.zip
cd ..

Request a License from Microchip

Install the license 

mv /path/to/License.dat ./licenses/.

Open the license in a text editor and change these lines:

SERVER <put.hostname.here> <your mac address> 1702
DAEMON actlmgrd  PATH/actlmgrd
DAEMON mgcld PATH/mgcld
VENDOR snpslmd  PATH/snpslmd

to

SERVER <put.hostname.here> <your mac address> 1702
DAEMON actlmgrd  /opt/microchip/Libero_SoC_v2024.1/Libero/bin64/actlmgrd
DAEMON mgcld /opt/microchip/Libero_SoC_v2024.1/Libero/bin64/mgcld
VENDOR snpslmd  /opt/microchip/Libero_SoC_v2024.1/Libero/bin64/snpslmd

Your mac address should already be placed there so don't worry about that.

Edit the environment

The environment script, located in ./scripts/env contains the version of Libero and SoftConsole that you are installing. Change the versions to the correct versions if needed.

The hostname of your host machine will be used by the container. We can use the following command to plop your hostname into the right places:

sed -i "s/<hostname>/$(hostname)/g" ./scripts/env

Usage

Build the container + Launch the licensing daemon 

make daemon

Run Libero 

make run

Run libero from inside the container 

make debug
libero
