Robocup ROS Workspace Basics

1. Head to robocup_ws (workspace):
   cd robocup_ws
2. Build dependencies and packages:
   catkin_make
3. Source the project so that ROS can locate all packages:
   source devel/setup.bash
4. Once in /src, run:
   roslaunch robocup_gazebo robocup_world.launch

Run the game master and game simulator

1. source the base ROS
2. catkin_make the workspace
3. source workspace build
4. using ros launch:
   • go to workspace dir
   • roslaunch GameEngine game.launch
5. Or using ros run:
   • go to workspace dir
   • rosmaster
   • rosrun GameEngine game_master.py
   • rosrun GameEngine game_simulator.py

Configure the PyCharm development environment

Add alias

1.For ROS 2. For PyCharm

PyCharm - setting the project

1. In Pycharm open project with UofG_Robotics_TDP as a source folder
2. file -> Settings -> Project: UofG_Robotics_TDP -> Project Structure
3. Right click on robotcap_ws folder and click on source

Pre-requirements

1. Install PyCharm
2. Create an alias to Pycharm
3. Create an alias to main ROS source

Setup

1. Source base ROS
2. from same terminal launch PyCharm
3. Create a virtual environemtn (call it: .venv)
4. Create launch configuration
   • change the launch directory to GameEngine

...to be continue

1. git clone
2. git checkout speccific branch
3. source base ROS source /opt/ros/__vrsion__/setup.bash
4. cd robotcup
5. catkin_make
6. source devel/setup.bash
7. cd ../
8. sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt (if pip3 is not working install it)
9. cd robotcup
10. roslaunch GameEngine game.launch

How to test:

Simple ros launch:

roslaunch GameEngine game.launch

ros launch with the ball init position at x = 1, y = 2 in world coordinate system

roslaunch GameEngine game.launch simulator_args:="--ball_pos 1 2"

ros launch with the ball init position at x = 1, y = 2 (in world coordinate system) and vel x = 0 y = 0.4

roslaunch GameEngine game.launch simulator_args:="--ball_pos 0.5 0.5 --ball_vel 0 0.4"

ros launch with team 1 at new positions: player1_x, player1_y, player2_x, player2_y, ... , player5_y

roslaunch GameEngine game.launch simulator_args:="--team_1_init_pos -2 2 -2 -2 2 1 2 -1 -4 0"

Roadmap

The step to finish the project.

Packages

In requirement.txt

Usage

The simulation and game master is finished, therefore, new learner can write some stragetic things for the project.

Contributing

This is a project for new learner to follow.
