Then you can use wget via SSH or in a terminal to get the file on your Raspberrry Pi, something like:ĭon’t use this command directly, the mirror and file version will change all the time, so pick the correct link on their website first. To get the direct link, start the download on your computer, and then copy the direct link while the download is in progress. There is a “Direct link to file” link in the right menu:īut it’s not really a direct link. If you are on your computer, it’s a bit tricky. If you are doing this directly on your Raspberry Pi, you can click on it. Finally, you’ll have a download button to get the file.Either way, click on the “AArch64” link to get the correct download for your Raspberry Pi system:.I chose this option, to show you the process, I’ll install “Eclipse IDE for Java Developers”, but it’s the same thing for any package. Then, you can either download the “Eclipse Installer”, which will let you choose which Eclipse version to install, or directly download the version you want by scrolling a bit.So first, you need to click on “Download packages” to view the other options.Here is the procedure to download the correct Eclipse version for your Raspberry Pi:īy default, it will give you a download link for the x86_64 architecture, which doesn’t work on Raspberry Pi. Run the “eclipse” application for the first time.Extract the files from the downloaded archive.Download the corresponding package from the official website.Here are the required steps to get Eclipse running on a Raspberry Pi: Once done, make sure your system packages are up-to-date, by using the commands:Īre you a bit lost in the Linux command line? Check this article first for the most important commands to remember, and a free downloadable cheat sheet so you can have the commands at your fingertips. I have an article here about Raspberry Pi OS 64 bits, that will explain everything you need to know. So, first, if you are not on a 64-bits operating system, you need to start from scratch on Raspberry Pi OS 64 bits, Ubuntu, or any other alternative that offers a 64-bits version. If you see it on your system, you are ready to go. Linux raspberrypi 5.10.63-v8+ #1459 SMP PREEMPT Wed Oct 6 16:42: aarch64 GNU/LinuxĪarch64 is what we are looking for. On a 64-bits operating system, you’ll get something like: In this example, it’s “armv7”, so it’s 32-bits, which is not compatible with Eclipse. So, first, you need to make sure your system is a 64-bits version: Most tutorials about Eclipse on Raspberry Pi I have seen are obsolete because Eclipse is no longer available in the default repository of Raspberry Pi OS 32-bits, and only offers downloads for 64-bits operating systems. It can be either Raspberry Pi OS 64-bits (still in beta), Ubuntu, or any other distribution. To get Eclipse working on a Raspberry Pi, you need to use a 64-bits operating system. ![]() Prerequisite: Get a 64-bits Operating System The first third of the book teaches you the basics, but the following chapters include projects you can try on your own. It’s a 30-day challenge where you learn one new thing every day until you become a Raspberry Pi expert. If you’re looking to quickly progress on Raspberry Pi, you can check out my e-book here. You are at the best place to learn how to install it on your Raspberry Pi, just keep reading to follow my lead. A package is then available for this architecture on the official website and can be downloaded and installed manually.ĭon’t worry, in this article, I’ll explain how to do this step-by-step. The popular Eclipse IDE can be installed on Raspberry Pi but requires a 64-bits operating system. In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to easily install Eclipse on Raspberry Pi OS. Eclipse wouldn’t necessarily be my first choice for coding on Raspberry Pi, due to the hardware limitation and cumbersome interface, but it works fine on the recent models, and as a developer myself, I understand that using an editor you’re used to can potentially save a lot of time. If you are a developer and used to Eclipse on your computer, you might prefer to play with your Raspberry Pi using the same interface. ![]()
