Mark D Horn f7dbc8bba0 New plugin for generating catkin recipes 
Currently the plugin only allow for processing a single
ROS package in a repository. If a repository contains more than
one package, or the package is not in the root of the repository,
then use the `--src-subdir=<dir>` option.

ROS repositories generally do not use `master` as their default
branch, so be sure to include the correct branch for the desired
distribution as part of the URI: `<URI>;branch=indigo-devel`

README.md

Extension to recipetool to enable automatic creation of BitBake recipe files for ROS packages.

REQUIREMENTS

Two changes to the recipetool are required to use this plugin:

Requires either: From OE-Core rev: 1df60b09f7a60427795ec828c9c7180e4e52f98c From OE-Core rev: 3bb979c13463705c4db6c59034661c4cd8100756 or From poky rev: b1f237ebd0d4180c5d23a0ecd9aaf7193c63a48a From poky rev: a7baa47c876c7895499909731aaa451c6009610a

These changes are currently in the master branch as of 2017-Aug-24.

USAGE

Initialize the build environment:

source oe-init-build-env

Currently the plugin only allow for processing a single ROS package in a repository. If a repository contains more than one package, or the package is not in the root of the repository, then use the --src-subdir=<dir> option.

ROS repositories generally do not use master as their default branch, so be sure to include the correct branch for the desired distribution as part of the URI: <URI>;branch=indigo-devel

EXAMPLES

Build the Vector Nav package

devtool add https://github.com/dawonn/vectornav

Use the XBox Kinect Camera

devtool add --src-subdir=freenect_stack  "https://github.com/ros-drivers/freenect_stack.git"
devtool add --src-subdir=freenect_launch "https://github.com/ros-drivers/freenect_stack.git"
devtool add --src-subdir=freenect_camera "https://github.com/ros-drivers/freenect_stack.git"

TO DO

  • Wrapper to generate recipes for each package in a repository.
  • Add support for ament for ROS2 packages.
  • Wrapper for using rosdistro data to generate recipes for various ROS distributions.
