Talos Usage

Talos is a central control server for ROS2-based robot containers. Talos CLI lets you run the server, UI, and Zenoh daemon via Docker.

1. Installation (Talos CLI)

# From this repo's talos_cli directory
pip install .

# Or install from wheel (recommended if `talos` command is not found)
python -m build --wheel
pip install dist/talos_cli-0.1.2-py3-none-any.whl

# If published on PyPI
pip install talos-cli

If you see talos: command not found

• With pip user installs, scripts go to ~/.local/bin. Add it to your PATH:

  export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
  

  (To make it permanent: echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc, then open a new terminal.)
• Or run without the script:

  python3 -m talos_cli.cli up
  

2. Basic usage

talos up

• Starts talos server, talos_ui, and zenoh daemon containers in the background.
• Uses the bundled config/config.yml by default.
• Requires Docker and docker compose.

3. Options

4. Access

• API: http://127.0.0.1:8081
• UI: http://127.0.0.1:3000 (talos_ui container)

5. Running from the repo (without CLI)

From the repo root:

docker compose up -d

• Builds talos/ and talos_ui, and uses the root config.yml and docker-compose.yml.
• Agent sockets are mounted from /var/run/robotis/agent_sockets.
