Cannot execute cmake in after cloning raisimOgre

[Jeeseop Kim]

I tried to clone the raisimOgre, and I tried to execute the cmake using the $LOCAL_BUILD parameter that I already setup in the .bashrc. But I couldn't successfully build it.

How can I fix this?

Here is the error message:
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$LOCAL_BUILD -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$LOCAL_BUILD
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:12 (find_package):
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "raisim" (requested
version 0.4.0) with any of the following names:

raisimConfig.cmake
raisim-config.cmake

Add the installation prefix of "raisim" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"raisim_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "raisim"
provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
installed.

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

Hello,

it seems that $LOCAL_BUILD variable is not set properly.

The following command should print out the directory path you installed raisimLib

$ echo $LOCAL_BUILD

Please check if your .bashrc has the following line

export LOCAL_BUILD=<YOUR LOCAL BUILD DIRECTORY PATH>

If it does, try the following command before you build the project.

$ source ~/.bashrc

Note that your LOCAL_BUILD directory should contain the followings (bin directory might not be there yet though)

here, my $WORKSPACE is set as ~/raisim and my $LOCAL_BUILD is set as ~/raisim/build.

Please source ~/.bashrc after you change it. closing this issue for now

when i echo $LOCAL_BUILD it will display /raisim/build.
but not able to view the directory LOCAL_BUILD to see what are the elements of directory.
My workspace name is ~/raisim_workspace.
All I follow the procedure in the Docker file, Pybind11, ogre, raisimLib compile well with the command
Could you share the problem with approach

[Jemin Hwangbo]

Not sure what you mean. Can you do cd $LOCAL_BUILD? If you cant then you did not install raisim with the correct CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX

[KASHIF]

RUN mkdir -p $WORKSPACE
(does this make working directory in Home directory?)
if raisim_workspace is WORKSPACE as example
RUN mkdir -p $LOCAL_BUILD
(does this make build directory in Home directory?)
if raisim_build is LOCAL_BUILD as example

RUN cd $WORKSPACE && git clone https://github.com/leggedrobotics/raisimLib.git
RUN cd $WORKSPACE/raisimLib && mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$LOCAL_BUILD && make install

QUESTION is below

raisim_workspace/raisimLib/build is the path by following the above commands

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=raisim_build && make install is Either correct or Wrong where raisim_build $LOCAL_BUILD directory on Home directory

[Jemin Hwangbo]

(does this make working directory in Home directory?)

no. You have to give the full path something like /home/kashifzr/raisim_workspace

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=raisim_build

Don't manually specify the install prefix. Set LOCAL_BUILD right once then call
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$LOCAL_BUILD

Thanks Jhwangbo. Now its works
