[yocto] Fetching from local repostories

[Rail Shafigulin]

We are storing some of the source code locally on a machine. Found
this on how to do it, https://stackoverflow.com/a/27834916/1636521,
but for some reason it doesn't work for me. I'm pretty sure I'm
missing something but don't know what exactly.

Here is my recipe

SUMMARY = ""
DESCRIPTION = ""
# Licensing Meta-data
LICENSE = "CLOSED"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = ""

# Modify these as desired
PV = "1.0+git${SRCPV}"
SRCREV = "${AUTOREV}"

S = "${WORKDIR}/git"

FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/files:"
SRC_URI += "            \
            file://app.tgz \
          "
DEPENDS += "\
    libevent \
    "

do_compile () {
  export SWROOT=${S}/../app
  oe_runmake
}

do_install () {
:
}

And here is the error that I'm getting:

Here is the ls of the recipes directory,

$ ls ~/projects/petalinux-build-system/sources/meta-piccard/recipes-piccard/cpe/files

app  app.tgz

The output of

bitbake cpe -e | grep FILESEXTRAPATHS

produces the following line

FILESEXTRAPATHS="/home/userl/projects/petalinux-build-system/sources/core/../meta-piccard/recipes-piccard/cpe/files:__default:"

What am I missing?
