rpi gateway with nrf24 sharing spi with other hardware

[rozpruwacz]

Hi all,

is there any software that implements any type of a gateway that can be used with nrf24 module connected to the spi bus shared with other hardware ? I'm already using spi0 to connect with audio dac (so i'm not able to use spi1 since it is used as pcm bus) and i think that this will not work with the software that uses bcm2825 driver to communicate with nrf module.

i found this repo:
https://github.com/mysensors/Raspberry
and was able to compile it and run with the newest RF24 library with SPIDEV driver. it seems to comunicate with the nrf module correctly but i think it is not updated to MySensors 2.0 so my sensors (not MySensors :)) are not compatible. Are ther plans to update this repo to MySensors 2.0 ?

@rozpruwacz Yes. See https://www.mysensors.org/build/raspberry (currently requires the development branch of MySensors)

ok, so how do i configure the build to use RF24 with SPIDEV driver ?
