How to reduce the capacity of RedHawk Python library


There are many RedHawk Python 2.7 libraries, and the capacity including Linux is getting bigger. Can RedHawk remove unnecessary Python 2.7 library module to reduce the capacity? Please let me know if there is a module available for deletion. Or, I am currently creating an image by compressing the whole system with gzip, but is there a more efficient compression method?


Solution

  • What is it you are trying to accomplish? If file size is that important it sounds like you are working on an embedded platform with limited disk space. Check out the features and work here on openembedded-hawk. It's been a while since I've updated it but you can have the entire REDHAWK framework built, with or without python, a REDHAWK Application, and the entire linux based OS all under 100 MiB. (Slightly more if you include python)
