Project description
Stretch Body
The stretch_body package provides a low level Python API to the Hello Robot Stretch hardware. This package comes pre-installed on Stretch robots. Tutorials for using this package can be found on the docs.
Installing
This package comes pre-installed on Stretch robots. To install or upgrade to a stable Stretch Body for Python3, run:
$ python3 -m pip install --upgrade hello-robot-stretch-body
To install or upgrade to a pre-release of Stretch Body for Python3, run:
$ python3 -m pip install --upgrade --pre hello-robot-stretch-body
Please report feedback on the Issue Tracker or the Forum.
Running tests
There are a number of unit, functional, and performance tests within the test/
folder, separated into test suites by different files. Suites are separated by a device or functionality within Stretch Body that is being tested.
In Python3, run python3 -m unittest test.test_<suite-name>
.
For example, to run the stretch_body.robot.Robot
functional tests, run:
$ git clone https://github.com/hello-robot/stretch_body.git
$ cd stretch_body/body
$ python3 -m unittest test.test_robot
Developing
The source code for Stretch Body resides within the stretch_body/
folder. You can install Stretch Body as "editable", and directly edit the source code to test changes.
In Python3, run python3 -m pip install -e .
For example, to test changes to stretch_body.robot.Robot
, run:
$ python3 -m pip uninstall hello-robot-stretch-body # ensure previous Stretch Body installations are removed
$ git clone https://github.com/hello-robot/stretch_body.git
$ cd stretch_body/body
$ python3 -m pip install -e .
Now, make desired edits to the stretch_body/body/stretch_body/robot.py file. Software using Stretch Body is now using the modified stretch_body.robot.Robot
class.
Deploying
Increment the version number and run the deploy.sh
script. Verify the new release is reflected on PyPI.
