Remote Zephyr Shell with Golioth // Zephyr Tech Talk #026
2025-07-09 15:00 - 16:00 UTC
Tune in on Wednesday, July 9 (9:00 AM EDT / 3:00 PM CEST) for a new Zephyr Tech Talk live stream!
The Zephyr shell is one of the most underrated features in Zephyr. It can be incredibly useful to quickly interact with hardware and help troubleshoot issues. But what happens when your device is deployed in the field, connected only by a cellular modem? That powerful local shell becomes inaccessible, leaving you flying blind.
Chris Gammell from Golioth will join Benjamin Cabé to discuss all things Zephyr shell, from controlling I2C devices, to regulators, sensors, and more, as well as how to expose it remotely and make virtually any Zephyr device accessible from a web-based shell using Golioth’s cloud and Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs). This episode is a great opportunity to discover shell commands you may not even know exist, and to learn about the challenges of securely interacting with devices in the field.
Zephyr Tech Talks are live streams organized by and for the Zephyr community. Join us live to ask your questions directly to our guests, or catch the recording anytime afterward.
