Ansible

Ansible roles for installing generic ROS things as well as specific Shadow projects.

Also contains the playbook (vagrant_site.yaml) used for provisioning the Vagrant virtual machines.

Continous Integration servers

The extra roles were added to run builds and different checks of the project on the hosted servers. The main playbook for these tasks is docker_site.yml.

Default development setup

General

deploy.sh implements very basic functionality for development environment setup for simple repositories in the following cases:

  • single repository which depends on official ROS Debian and PIP packages
  • single repository which partially depends on source code repositories which are stored in file repositories.rosintall file
  • multiple repositories which are described in rosintall file in any repository

Shell script is able to install Indigo and Kinetic ROS version plus all needed dependencies.

Flags

The shell script has the following flags:

  • -o or --owner name of the GitHub repository owner (shadow-robot by default)
  • -r or --repo name of the owners repository (sr-interface by default)
  • -w or --workspace path you want to use for the ROS workspace. The directory will be created. (~{current_user}/workspace/{project_name}/base by default)
  • -v or --rosversion ROS version name (indigo by default)
  • -b or --branch repository branch
  • -i or --installfile relative path to rosintall file in repository (default /repository.rosinstall)
  • -l or --githublogin github login for private repositories.
  • -p or --githubpassword github password for private repositories.
  • -t or --tagslist tags for running a specific part of the configuration of the playbook

Simple repository without repository.rosinstall

Install repository ros/roslint from GitHub into roslint workspace ~{current_user}/workspace/roslint/base using ROS Indigo. Tries to read any possible dependencies from repositories.rosinstall and install them into ~{current_user}/workspace/roslint/base_deps

bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shadow-robot/sr-build-tools/master/ansible/deploy.sh) -o ros -r roslint -v indigo

Simple repository with repository.rosinstall

Install repository shadow-robot/build-servers-check from GitHub into build-servers-check workspace ~{current_user}/workspace/build-servers-check/base using ROS Kinetic. Tries to read any possible dependencies from repositories.rosinstall and install them into ~{current_user}/workspace/build-servers-check/base_deps

bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shadow-robot/sr-build-tools/master/ansible/deploy.sh) -r "build-servers-check" -b "kinetic-devel" -v kinetic

Multiple repositories from rosinstall file

This script will install all repositories which are described in ros-planning/moveit GitHub repository (branch kinetic-devel) inside file moveit.rosinstall. Tries to read any possible dependencies from repositories.rosinstall and install them into ~{current_user}/workspace/build-servers-check/base_deps

bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shadow-robot/sr-build-tools/master/ansible/deploy.sh) -o "ros-planning" -r moveit -b "kinetic-devel" -i moveit.rosinstall -v kinetic

To include installation of the mongodb database an extra flag is required

bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shadow-robot/sr-build-tools/master/ansible/deploy.sh) -o "ros-planning" -r moveit -b "kinetic-devel" -i moveit.rosinstall -v kinetic -t mongodb
