Welcome!
Robojackets RoboRacing currently supports an Ubuntu 18.04 and ROS-melodic environment. The project may build/run in other environments, but we can't guarantee it.
Let's begin the installation process.
Contents
- 1 Step 1 - Get Terminator
- 2 Step 2 - Set up your sources.list
- 3 Step 3 - Set up your keys
- 4 Step 4 - Update your Debian packages
- 5 Step 5 - Get Ros melodic
- 6 Step 6 - Initialize rosdep
- 7 Step 7 - Environment Variable Setup
- 8 Step 8 - Initialize catkin workspace
- 9 Step 9 - Clone RoboRacing Repository
- 10 Step 10 - Install ROS Dependencies
- 11 Step 11 - Install Python Dependencies
- 12 Step 12 - Build the Code
- 13 Step 13 - Run the Code
Step 1 - Get Terminator
We primarily use terminator instead of the default terminal since it allows for both horizontal and vertical splitting (which obviously increases overall productivity). Start up the default terminal and type:
sudo apt install terminator
You should now be using this from now on, it will help later.
Step 2 - Set up your sources.list
Now for these next steps you don't need to understand what they do, only make sure they complete properly. So if you see any errors come up, tell one of us immediately. Copy this into your terminal:
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'
Step 3 - Set up your keys
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver 'hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80' --recv-key C1CF6E31E6BADE8868B172B4F42ED6FBAB17C654
Step 4 - Update your Debian packages
sudo apt update
Step 5 - Get Ros melodic
sudo apt install ros-melodic-desktop-full
Step 6 - Initialize rosdep
sudo rosdep init
rosdep update
Step 7 - Environment Variable Setup
echo "source /opt/ros/melodic/setup.bash" >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
Step 8 - Initialize catkin workspace
cd <path to where you want to keep the project>
mkdir catkin_ws
cd catkin_ws
mkdir src
cd src
catkin_init_workspace
cd ..
catkin_make
- Command should complete and not really do anything
- If init_catkin_workspace failed then ROS did not install correctly and/or try "sudo apt-get update" which may fix the issue where catkin_init_workspace command can not be found
Step 9 - Clone RoboRacing Repository
- Fork RoboRacing Github Repository
cd src
git clone https://github.com/RoboJackets/roboracing-software.git --recursive
Step 10 - Install ROS Dependencies
cd ..
echo "source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash" >> ~/.bashrc
rosdep install --from-path src --ignore-src -y
- rosdep will download and install all of the necessary ros package dependencies, type "y" whenever it asks if it is ok to continue installation
Step 11 - Install Python Dependencies
- Install python dependencies (for Python 2) which are not in ROS:
pip install keras tensorflow numpy pynput matplotlib
Step 12 - Build the Code
catkin_make
- If this fails the first time try running catkin_make again
Step 13 - Run the Code
roscore &
- Then press [Enter]
roslaunch rr_gazebo macaroni_avc.launch
