Service Robotics Lab custom rosdep lists.

rosdistro

Service Robotics Lab custom debian related scripts:

• rosdep.yaml: rosdep lists. Relation between the name of the packages as dependency (package.xml) and the name of the APT debian package. To use it, you have to tell rosdep where it can find this file. To do so, add a new file called 50-haru.list in /etc/ros/rosdep/sources.list.d and add the following line:

  yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/haru-project/rosdistro/master/rosdep.yaml

  You can now update your sources:

  rosdep update

• generate_debian_pkgs.sh: script to generate multiple catkin packages hosted in the same catkin workspace (including the dependencies, which could be also installed instead of to be in the workspace) using Bloom. To use it, you will need to install some packages:

  sudo apt-get install python-bloom fakeroot parallel debhelper -y

  Important: If you are running Ubuntu 20 replace python-bloom by python3-bloom.

  • Mandatory params:

    • --workspace_folder=/path/to/folder

      Path to the ROS workspace's root folder.

    • --output_folder=/path/to/folder

      Path to folder where the generated deb should be moved to.

  • Optional params:

    • --parallel=N_THREADS

      Use multiple threads to generate the .deb files. The script will spawn one worker thread per core. You can force a given number of threads by adding a number to the option (e.g, --parallel=4).

    • --packages=package1:package2

      By default, the script generates debian files for all the packages in the workspace. This option can be used to specify what packages you want to generate. Note that the list delimiter is ':'.

    • *--resolv-depends

      Used to resolv the dependencies using rosdep to avoid installing them manually.
