BaseTools was moved out to a separate repo and consumed as a pip module by edk2 CI. This process has not led to the desired goals of doing so, so this patch removes the pip based BaseTools from edk2 CI. The original goal of moving BaseTools to a pip module was primarily to speed up the development process, as the old edk2 mailing list was slow. However, with edk2 moving to PRs, it now actually slows the BaseTools development process to have to do a PR in another repo, publish the module, and then make a PR in edk2 to consume the new BaseTools. It also holds up using the features in a new BaseTools in other PRs. There were other goals of moving, such as allowing projects to use the BaseTools outside of edk2. This can still be accomplished outside of this PR, this PR simply stops edk2 CI from using the pip module.

:: Note: New build instructions are available. It is recommended to start with the new instructions if learning how to build edk2 and/or BaseTools for the first time. This page is retained for reference. New instructions: `Build Instructions`_ .. _`Build Instructions`: https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Build-Instructions This directory contains the EDK II build tools and template files. Templates are located in the Conf directory, while the tools executables for Microsoft Windows Operating Systems are located in the Bin\\Win32 directory, other directory contains tools source. Build step to generate the binary tools --------------------------------------- Windows/Visual Studio Notes =========================== To build the BaseTools, you should run the standard vsvars32.bat script from your preferred Visual Studio installation or you can run get_vsvars.bat to use latest automatically detected version. In addition to this, you should set the following environment variables:: * EDK_TOOLS_PATH - Path to the BaseTools sub directory under the edk2 tree * BASE_TOOLS_PATH - The directory where the BaseTools source is located. (It is the same directory where this README.rst is located.) After this, you can run the toolsetup.bat file, which is in the same directory as this file. It should setup the remainder of the environment, and build the tools if necessary. Unix-like operating systems =========================== To build on Unix-like operating systems, you only need to type ``make`` in the base directory of the project. Ubuntu Notes ============ On Ubuntu, the following command should install all the necessary build packages to build all the C BaseTools:: sudo apt install build-essential uuid-dev
