A few notes:
The snap currently on the store was packaged based on Noetic. Altho I tested it fine against my Melodic simulation.
I've added every dependency that explicitly appears in the codebase - whether they are optional or not - to the package.xml file so that e.g. rosdep can install them.
Snap being confined, it cannot access ROS packages on the host machine. Therefore you need to bundle every message that you might want to support. For instance, I've added a couple more typical ROS msgs here. One could grow that list based on user requests for instance.
This PR adds snap packaging to rosboard.
To give it a shot, first install it:
And off you go:
You don't even need ROS to be installed on the host to use it since the snap packages all rosboard dependencies.
At the moment I own the 'rosboard' name on the snap store; I'd be more than happy to transfer it to you.
