Repository for hosting content on the SQUIRREL website (http://squirrel-project.eu/)

Publications/Papers

Please DO NOT ENTER your PUBLICATIONS MANUALLY to the website. We have installed an automatic publications website generator script in the management package that will overwrite the publications website with the bibtex information provided there. Please consider the instructions in the main readme.md file of the management package on adding new publications.

Quick installation

Clone the squirrel-project website repository (or preferably your own fork of it)

git clone [e-mail]:squirrel-project/website

Then simply edit the html files. For testing run:

website/debug_server.py

You can now browse to the url http://localhost:9000 and get a live update whenever you edit any html file located in squirrel_website/html.

Installation

Create a new catkin workspace for the squirrel project website:

mkdir -p ~/squirrel_ws/src
cd ~/squirrel_ws/src
catkin_init_workspace

Clone the squirrel-project website repository:

git clone git clone [e-mail]:squirrel-project/website

Add the workspace to the package path and install dependencies:

export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=~/squirrel_ws:$ROS_PACKAGE_PATH

Install required dependencies:

rosdep install squirrel_website

If you want to permanently add the workspace to your repository path you can source the package path in your bashrc:

echo "export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=~/squirrel_ws:$ROS_PACKAGE_PATH" >> ~/.bashrc

Local Testing / Editing

Stat a local server:

roslaunch squirrel_website server.launch

You can now browse to the url http://localhost:9000 and get a live update whenever you edit any html file located in squirrel_website/html.
