Revive turtlebot urdf demo #38

Closed jihoonl closed 9 years ago

jihoonl commented 10 years ago

Turtlebot URDF demo has been disabled by the issue #36. Once brown's new server up and running, we can re-enable this.

@rctoris What do I need to do to revive turtlebot urdf demo?

rctoris commented 9 years ago

We would need to spin up a new EC2 instance since we can only load one robot URDF per roscore. We had free trials during the time we had the three different models up but no longer do.

jihoonl commented 9 years ago

Would it be possible to run docker inside EC2? So we can run multiple ROS dockers in one EC2 instance.

jihoonl commented 9 years ago

And how do I access resource.robotwebtools.org? turtlebot_description need to be updated.

jihoonl commented 9 years ago

Check this out.

The resources stuff is hosted on our lab's AWS account. I can look into permissions for an external collaborator to the S3 bin otherwise I can push them up if need be.

Docker looks cool. I'm trying it now on our EC2 instance. It seems there is a live demo there? Why not just link that page on robotwebtools.org?

rctoris commented 9 years ago

Seems like the docker instance worked, its running now: http://demo.robotwebtools.org:8888/

The demo was temporarily hosted for demonstration. I thought it would be nice to move this to more official location like turtlebot.com or robotwebtools.org. So it can be stably hosted.

jihoonl commented 9 years ago

http://demo.robotwebtools.org:8888/ seems to be dead. At the moment. Once it becomes live, I will create a PR to update demo page.

rctoris commented 9 years ago

Yes, that means its running. 8888 is the WebSocket server not an HTTP server so no actual web page will be displayed. Point a web page with a roslib client pointed there like the other examples and I think it should work.

jihoonl commented 9 years ago

Nice Thanks. It works!

Can you tell me how to update resource.robotwebtools.org? I am getting the following errors.

resource_error

rctoris commented 9 years ago

Can you email me a zip folder with the version of the Collada files you want? I'll push them to the server.

jihoonl commented 9 years ago

Sent.

rctoris commented 9 years ago

All set!

Thanks!
