Document how to use gz-sim-yarp-plugins with ergoCub #142

Closed xela-95 closed 4 months ago

xela-95 commented 6 months ago

I created a wiki page at https://github.com/robotology/gz-sim-yarp-plugins/wiki/How-to-use-%60gz%E2%80%90sim%E2%80%90yarp%E2%80%90plugins%60-with-ergoCub to document the workflow.

@traversaro let me know if for you is clear enough or there's something missing. I will ask to some lab colleague to try to follow it and get feedbacks.

Ok! For the time being I will remove the conda part until the package is actually available, otherwise it risks being confusing. When you are ready I would make an announcement in the internal AMI chat (for now) to start collecting users, thanks!

Not sure if this is the right place, but we need also to sort out where to host this docs. As it is robot-specific, I would avoid to commit in gz-sim-yarp-plugins, but on the other hand being simulator specific @Nicogene wanted to avoid to have it in ergocub-software . Indeed in the current form the world file is quite massive for a minimal example. Let's try to iterate a bit, and then we decide.

One thing that I think we can easily do in ergocub-software is to have a table like https://github.com/robotology/icub-models?tab=readme-ov-file#model-details, and then probably have somewhere something like https://github.com/robotology/icub-models?tab=readme-ov-file#usage section that refers to how the model can be used. I think that this point the Classic Gazebo section can easily be modified to also refer to Modern Gazebo (gz-sim), as the modifications required in the world. are the same.

Ok I will try to reduce its size.

No need to, sorry about the misunderstanding. I meant that we can start using it, and then look how it goes. The tutorial as it is is perfect, let's start promoting it!

Ah ok sorry for the misunderstanding! 🚀

Now the conda-forge package of gz-sim-yarp-plugins is available, but it still cannot be used with the ergocub-software package since the latter has not bumper a version in which the support for Modern Gazebo is available. Maybe it's better to maintain this issue in review until this happens and the documentation can be updated.

@Nicogene can we do a release of ergocub-software so we can get advertise users of the gz-sim + ergocub models simulation using just conda packages? Thanks!

Here it is:

Thanks, now I need to fix https://github.com/robotology/robotology-superbuild/issues/1634 . :D , or we just migrate ergocub-software to conda-forge as well.

Closing since both gz-sim-yarp-plugins and ergocub-software packages can be used together (also in conda) and the wiki page is updated.
