Compiles, but cannot figure out how to make it create a binary

[andrethomas]

Perhaps for clarity - I want to see the viability of creating a web-based firmware generator that allows selection of user_config parameters and then compiles a custom firmware binary for yourself.

Something like this https://nodemcu-build.com/ but specifically for Tasmota firmware

"should" be easy with platformio cli

Hi,

I'm using debian stable (9.5) to compile firmware. Here are steps to prepare env and use it from shell:
1) Install python as root
apt update && apt install python python-pip
it will install python2.7 (platformio doesn't work with python3.x yet)
2) then as normal user (not root) install platformio
pip2 install -U platformio
platformio command should be available here ls ~/.local/bin/platformio
3) go to tasmota main dir (the one with platformio.ini file) and execute
~/.local/bin/platformio run
after successful compilation firmware should be available here: ls .pioenvs/sonoff*/firmware.bin

Optional step: you can update platformio with command ~/.local/bin/platformio platform update

Maybe it will help someone :)
Enjoy!

Thanks @hipek seems to work.
