ros-get 0.2.0.dev0

Simple tools for working with ROS source packages

ros-env is a collection of simple tools for working with ROS source packages.

Installation

The ros-get software uses pip to install itself. If you don’t have it yet, it is available as python-pip at Debian and Ubuntu. (Install using sudo apt install python-pip.)

Installation from PyPI

Not yet available.

For now, please install from source, for development. Details can be found in the installation manual.

Installation from source

If you like to both use and hack ros-get, you can ‘install’ the software by pointing the installation to the development code.

1. Make ros-get available locally, eg by download or cloning the repository, for example

   git checkout https://github.com/Rayman/ros-get.git

2. Install using pip with the editable option -e DIR.

   cd ros-get
   pip install --user -e .

   The final . says that pip should redirect the ros-get command relative to this directory (to ./src/ros-get).

Usage

TODO: create a workspace

ros-get install tue_config
ros-get remove tue_config
ros-get update

Comparison with tue-env

• Separation between distro definition and the tool

• Distro definition according to REP 143

• Dependency definition according to REP 112

• Parallel git clone/pull

• Python (instead of bash)

Uninstall

pip uninstall ros-get
