Re: [Discuss OpenCPI] Deploy For Standalone Embedded Target

When making a standalone SD card, it is usually the user's choice as to
which artifacts should be copied to the SD card.
In any project, all the artifacts are sym-linked into the artifacts/
subdirectory, so if you wanted them all, you could copy from there
(following links of course).
But that will copy things that are not sensible on the SD card
(artifacts for other platforms).
A better approach is to generate a list of appropriate artifacts using
the "ocpirun --artifacts" command.
This command finds all the artifacts in the OCPI_LIBRARY_PATH that are
for the listed platforms.

I.e.

arts=$(OCPI_LIBRARY_PATH=projects/assets/artifacts ocpirun
--artifacts=centos7,xsim)


So then you could:

cp -L $arts /mnt/cardxxxxx/opencpi/my-artifacts

Assuming that directory existed and was in the OCPI_LIBRARY_PATH on the
embedded platform.
