Procedural Generation for Gazebo¶
The Procedural Generation for Gazebo package is an Open Source Project extending the simulation capabilities of the robotics simulator Gazebo for automation and scripting of Gazebo simulations.
Visit the documentation page for more information.
Purpose of the project¶
This software is a research prototype.
The software is not ready for production use. It has neither been developed nor tested for a specific use case. However, the license conditions of the applicable Open Source licenses allow you to adapt the software to your needs. Before using it in a safety relevant setting, make sure that the software fulfills your requirements and adjust it according to any applicable safety standards (e.g. ISO 26262).
Requirements¶
Installation from source¶
Clone the repository into your catkin workspace
cd ~/catkin_ws/src git clone https://github.com/boschresearch/pcg_gazebo_pkgs.git
then install the dependencies (replace kinetic
for the ROS distribution you are using)
cd ~/catkin_ws rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro=kinetic -y -r
and then run catkin build
.
Installation of Python dependencies¶
The Python dependencies for the pcg_gazebo
library can be found in pcg_libraries/requirements.txt
.
Since some of them cannot be resolved using rosdep
, the missing dependencies are going
to be installed in pip
using the default python
version in the target system in the user
space.
