Blob file module

Include any file content as binary data in a RIOT application.

Include any file content as binary data in a RIOT application.

makes any file in BLOBS available via an include directive in the C code.

Usage:

Add this to an application or module Makefile:

BLOBS += foo.ext

Then include in C file or header:

#include "blob/foo.ext.h"

The blob can then be accessed using the symbols "foo_ext" and "foo_ext_len".

Subfolders

It is possible to add files from subfolders to BLOBS:

BLOBS += subfolder/my_file.foo

The subfolder will be part of the generated header's path, but not of the generated symbols. E.g., above blob would be made available by including "blobs/subfolder/my_file.ext.h", which would define the symbols "my_file_ext" and "my_file_ext_len". Beware possible symbol name clashes.
