SCALABLE system setup

Last update: 07/23/2018 by Ludovic

Fresh install

First Install ROS Kinetic

If you want to use SSH:
Create a new SSH key
Adding an SSH Key to your github account

Then the wstools and catkin-tools:

$ sudo apt-get install python-wstool python-catkin-tools

Create new workspace:

$ cd ~
$ mkdir scalable_ws

Initialize your SCALABLE workspace:

$ cd scalable_ws
#If you use SSH:
$ wstool init src https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ScalABLE40/scalable_system_setup/master/config/release_psa.rosinstall
#If you use HTTPS:
$ wstool init src https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ScalABLE40/scalable_system_setup/master/config/release_psa_https.rosinstall
$ rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro=kinetic -y
$ catkin build
$ source devel/setup.bash
$ roscd scalable_launch/scripts
$ ./install_dependencies.sh

Updating the workspace from source

To update the workspace run:

$ scalable update release_psa.rosinstall

The default rosinstall is release_psa.rosinstall. See all rosinstall in scalable_system_setup/config.

Bash commands

Source the workspace:

$ cd ~/scalable_ws/
$ source devel/setup.bash

Build the workspace:

$ catkin build

Run the tests:

$ catkin run_tests

After running catkin build some bash commands will be available. (check them out typing scalable and tab).
