Do I need to use MBED CLI?

Hi guys,

I have been trying to import and use the program designed for the K64F and RA8875 devices here, https://os.mbed.com/teams/FRDM-K64F-Code-Share/code/RA8875_Demo/.

However, I always get the error message "An error occurred while cloning the remote repository"

I have researched and stumbled upon MBED CLI, I'm still fairly new to programming so would very much like to stick to the online compiler if possible - but does this error message mean I must use CLI if I want to use this program? Or is there a way around it?

Also, is there a version of this code that doesn't use the SD card? I wish only to connect to a screen.

Thanks, Jacob.

Hello Jacob,

Try to carry out the followings steps in the online compiler (worked for me fine):

  • Click in the Import button
  • Select the Programs tab
  • Type RA8875_Demo into the Search edit box and then click on the Search button.
  • Left click on the first line (RA8875_Demo ...) so the whole line becomes selected (should have orange background).
  • Click on the Import! button.
  • Make sure you selected the Import as: Program option.
  • Click on the Import button.

PS: SD card is not used in the program.
