Intermediate Tutorials: PurePursuit repository is missing CMakeLists file #15

Closed Micrified closed 4 years ago

Micrified commented 4 years ago

The intermediate tutorial provided in the handy Wiki mentions launching an autonomous driving node using the modified pure-pursuit algorithm.

However, the installation does not include this repository. It can still be found as a package here though. But downloading this package is not sufficient for catkin to build it, as it does not include the package CMakeLists file for building it. (Edit: Removed package.xml as it was not the needed file)

Unfortunately, the pure_pursuit algorithm is no longer part of the main simulator package. There is one of two ways in which you can get this algorithm working in the simulator:

  1. Move the scripts and launch files from the pure_pursuit repository to the simulator directory individually such that each file is under the designated folder
  2. Clone the pure_pursuit package to src directory in your local workspace, and within the src directory, execute catkin_creake_pkg pure_pursuit

Also note that we have removed trajectory data from the pure_pursuit package to support custom race track designs, so you will have to provide your own raceline data with a min. resolution of 0.05 meters

If you have further questions about the pure_pursuit package, please open a ticket in that repository so only simulator related issues are posted here.
