ROS2 General Notes
Useful links
PC workflow
- Install ROS2 - will get installed to /opt/ros/<name>
- Terminal setup:
source /opt/ros/bouncy/setup.bash or source /opt/ros/bouncy/local_setup.bash
- Create a workspace
- Create some packages inside or clone - they have a vcs tool to clone all repos from a text file.
- Install colcon
- Then build with colcon
- Packages will not get installed to /opt/ros/bouncy/... Instead they will always live in their folders.
- To use a package:
source /opt/ros/bouncy/setup.bash source ~/ros2_ws/some-package/install/local_setup.bash ros2 pkg list then run anything in this terminal
- Python scripts can live anywhere - just run them from that sourced terminal
Embedded workflow
- Use meta-ros in yocto
- Go for ROS2 recipes. Use as examples.
- The build system is ament - which is one gen older then colcon
- Here there's no workspace - packages do get installed somewhere
- Need to source some env variable
- Python scripts can live anywhere - because ROS2 populates /usr/lib/...
- Service formats are too few - for a simple "Request string - Response string" server need to add new srv.
ROS2 on Zynq
Cross-compiled and installed in Yocto

... if you are concerned about latency, like for soft real-time, you can basically tune DDS to be just a UDP blaster. In another scenario you might need something that behaves like TCP, but needs to be more tolerant to long dropouts, and with DDS all of these things can be controlled by changing the QoS parameters. ...
Build
- Add path to bblayers.conf
- Add to "IMAGE_INSTALL_append" of core-image-elphel393.bb:

Test Talker and Listener
- SSH session 1:
root@elphel393:~# export AMENT_PREFIX_PATH=/usr root@elphel393:~# ros2 run demo_nodes_cpp talker
- SSH session 2:
root@elphel393:~# export AMENT_PREFIX_PATH=/usr root@elphel393:~# ros2 run demo_nodes_cpp listener
Notes:
- It populates /usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/ so python scripts can be pretty much standalone
- If AMENT_PREFIX_PATH is not set (only for command line apps) then:

removed python3-imaging from rosbag - everything builds but then not really working.
with ROS_USE_PYTHON3 = "yes" stopped at finding an appropriate python-pycrypto lib
