# Build with QSC-CLI

Use the Qualcomm^®^ Software Center command-line interface (QSC-CLI) to download and compile the QIRP SDK and the robotics image, and flash images using tools or commands.

**Prerequisites:**

- You have installed the QSC CLI, with the commands in [Install QSC-CLI](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70018-254/build_frm_source_qsc_cli.html#install-qsc-cli) of *Qualcomm Linux Build Guide*.

Note

QSC CLI uses Docker. Install Docker on the host computer if you haven't.

## Download

**Steps:**

1. Sign in `qpm-cli`.

    1. Sign in with this command.

qpm-cli --login
            Copy to clipboard
    2. Verify if the `qpm-cli` login is successful.

qpm-cli --product-list
            Copy to clipboard

2. Download a particular software release of the QIRP SDK with the following command. To identify the appropriate values for the command arguments, use the following tables.

qsc-cli download --workspace-path '<absolute_workspace_path>' --product '<Product_ID>' --release '<Release_ID>' --distribution '<Distro>'
        Copy to clipboard

Note

Both `--release` and `--build` options work individually to download a software package. If both options are provided, the `--release` parameter is used to trigger a download.

Note

The build and flash steps follow the [Qualcomm^®^ Linux Build Guide](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70018-254).

## Build the QIRP with QSC-CLI downloads

To build the QIRP SDK, see [Build default configuration - Compile](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70018-254/build_frm_source_qsc_cli.html#compile).

**Outputs**

Note

`<Base_Workspace_Path>` is the argument that you provide to the `--workspace-path` parameter of the [download command](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-70018-265/topic/build-with-qsc-cli_3_1.html#step-download-with-qsccli).

## Flash the QIRP to devices

Flash the robotics image to the device, and install the QIRP SDK.

- To flash the robotics image to the device, see [Flash software images](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70018-254/flash_images.html).
- To install the QIRP SDK on the device, see [Install the QIRP SDK on the device](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-70018-265/topic/flash-and-install_4_3.html#install-qirp-sdk).
