Dependencies

• v-rep pro edu (virtual robot experimentation platform)
• node.js + npm + node-gyp
• g++ / clang++
• cmake + make
• boost libraries

Documentation

• Class diagram

How to

/!\ Important note: npm commands should be executed from repository root directory

Setup virtual environment

• Download and install v-rep
• Open v-rep then load 2w1a.ttt

Build and use sample code?

Available sample projects:

• v-rep remote api test with 2w1a in python and c++
• String finder genetic algorithm in c++

See sample code README

Use project?

Install

• npm install

Launch

• v-rep virtual environment need to be setup
• npm start

Development notes

How to launch server in dev mode?

• v-rep virtual environment need to be setup
• npm run dev

Note: Server will automaticaly restart after file change Note2: Works for node.js files, does not work for c++ files

How to build/rebuild C++ side?

Node.js algorithm module

• npm run build_algo
• npm run rebuild_algo

Executable development algorithm

• npm run build_algo_dev
• npm run rebuild_algo_dev

How to launch development executable algorithm?

• v-rep virtual environment need to be setup
• Execute algorithm/build_dev/2w1a_dev

Config file

• You have to do your own config file using the config/base.example.json
• cp config/base.example.json config/base.json
