I make an export application file from processing. I want to run start up this file on raspberry pi 3 with linux. Please guide me. Thanks
if you mean autostart at boot ( of raspberry pi / RASPBIAN linux / ) pls see
3D terrain standalone display project ,
or is your question that you export your app but it does not run?

I want to run automatically an application file. The export file runs well. I try 5 methods but I have not success
at boot to desktop of user ‘pi’
yes, that is what i show you.
did you try the 2 command files
if not exist make sub dir
mkdir /home/pi/.config/autostart/
nano /home/pi/.config/autostart/myautostart.desktop
nano /home/pi/.config/autostart/start_processing
chmod +x /home/pi/.config/autostart/start_processing
do you have questions to that procedure?
very good

How do I make a bash file, please guide me
THANKS
you know how to open a terminal
you use what editor to make files?
( in above command list i say ‘nano’ but up to you )
so besides that, do you understand above 4 terminal commands?
now about the file content.
is show you in the link
but in the
start_processing
bash file you must adjust path and file name to your export.
so if you not show me where your app ended up from export i can not
help you with the file content.
warning, play with autostart
- command files
- app content ( like fullscreen… )
can make your system unusable,
and if you not know how to undo that changes ( like from remote SSH putty login )
you might ending up burning a new system uSD.
I just started with processing and linux two weeks ago. Now, I completed programming one program. Apter exporting, I worked fine. The address of file is /home/pi/Destop/application.linux-armv6hf. I want mya program run automatically when the raspberry pi finishing booting. Please help me step by step to do that because I am newer.
Thank so much.
no, there is more to it.
where is your processing sketch
( as processing usually creates a directory for the sketches… )
and when you export, the application files are under that path??
/home/pi/Desktop/application.linux-armv6hf/combine_horizontal_and_vertical
ok, now i know the filename.
so you make your bash file
nano /home/pi/.config/autostart/start_processing
with this content:
#!/bin/bash
# /home/pi/.config/autostart/start_processing
# this will not do anything unless called by a .desktop file
echo '10s'
env sleep 5
echo '5s'
env sleep 5
#...
cd /home/pi/Desktop/application.linux-armv6hf/
bash combine_horizontal_and_vertical
# wait for operator to close window
read -p "press enter to close terminal window"
make it executable
chmod +x /home/pi/.config/autostart/start_processing
and test it
if the test works you can test the desktop file
/home/pi/.config/autostart/myautostart.desktop
also with double click

Excuse me. Can I have a question? Now, when the linux starting, the window start_processing display, but the program have not run. On the window there is line Not a directory … press Enter to close…
how can you start ( reboot )RPI without doing the 2 tests i told you?
i do it just here, only with my own code
( as you not show us your sketch )
test bash
test .desktop
reboot
autostart on boot WORKS!

/home/pi/.config/autostart/start_processing

Two days ago with your helping I did one program run start up. Today I follow the same procedure to make for another program but it have not worked
after reboot the window display and given:
/home/pi/.config/autostart/start_processing: line 11: cd: too many arguments
press enter to close terminal window
the bash file like this:
#!/bin/bash
/home/pi/.config/autostart/start_processing
this will not do anything unless called by a .desktop file
echo ‘10s’
env sleep 5
echo ‘5s’
env sleep 5
#…
$-armv6hf/bash combine_horizontal_and_vertical_new
wait for operator to close window
read -p “press enter to close terminal window”
this was working!
cd /home/pi/Desktop/application.linux-armv6hf/
bash combine_horizontal_and_vertical
this is not working
$-armv6hf/bash combine_horizontal_and_vertical_new
edit and repair
