Possible to fetch from private github repo?

Possible to fetch from private github repo?

[Steve Sakoman]

I have a client that keeps their app source code in a private github repository.

I haven't managed to find a way to convince the git fetcher to grab
the source code.

Has anyone else managed to write a recipe that uses a github private repository?

Thanks!

Steve

Yes: https://github.com/CircuitCo/meta-circuitco/blob/master/recipes-tester/beagleboneblack/bbbtester_git.bb

You need to have your ssh keys in order before trying that, though.

Koen

Thanks Koen.

I tried that form, so clearly I must not have my ssh keys in order!

Thanks for confirmation that it can be made to work.

Ditto, I grab from a private repo's using validated ssh-keys without 
issue. Just ensure that the machine you're running bitbake on is the 
machine that has been validated, and you have set the protocol to ssh 
and you should be fine!

It is working now.

My ssh keys were in order.  But as is often the case the problem was me :-)

I cut and pasted the ssh address from the github web page for the
repo, added the git://  in front and the ;protocol=ssh at the end, but
neglected to convert the : in the supplied address to a /

With that one character change all is well.

Thanks!
