How to install RainMaker in Eclipse Espressif-IDE

[maccruz50]

Hi,
I'm new to using Eclipse Espressif-IDE and had created projects using standard templates hello_world/blink projects. My workspace is C:\Users\maccruz\workspace. My Espressif-IDE is located in C:/Espressif/frameworks/esp-idf-v5.2.2/.
What's the best way and where should I install the RainMaker so I can create a project using RainMaker sample/template, like temperature_sensor, etc.? Do I "git clone --recursive https://github.com/espressif/esp-rainmaker.git" using Git Bash from the project folder or somewhere/something else?

If the esp-idf tools are installed and IDF_PATH set correctly, you can clone esp-rainmaker anywhere and use the projects from it. If your project is expected to be elsewhere, please also set RMAKER_PATH environment variable to point to the esp-rainmaker folder.

Thank you, ESP_Piyush. I got it to work. I used your second suggestion so I can use my existing workspace. I installed "esp-rainmaker" in my existing workspace. Copied the example project, ie: multi_device, into my workspace and set(RMAKER_PATH ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/../esp-rainmaker) in CMakeList of that project. Thanks!
