roslaunch hero_gazebo gazebo_wizard.launch : Launches empty Gazebo with no UI wizard #11

Closed sgtmahoy closed 2 years ago

sgtmahoy commented 2 years ago

Hey all, great stuff so far! Wondering if you have any insight to the subject issue. If possible when creating your how-to, would it be possible to include a brief walkthrough from a github pull to a gazebo sim?

roslaunch hero_gazebo env_spawn.launch spawns the arena and hero bots if gazebo is already launched, however none of the scripts link to the simulated swarm when run.

Thanks!

Hey @sgtmahoy Thanks for your interest in this repo!

Sorry for the lack of instructions so far. I'm trying to constantly add some instructions when I have some time. I'll try to upload a walkthrough tutorial from a github pull to a gazebo as soon as possible.

If I understand correctly, you are having a problem with the UI wizard, right? Did you note any warnings or errors in your terminal? Try running the script,

rosrun hero_gazebo hero_wizard.py

and check for any errors. Also, check if the hero_wizard.py file has executable permissions.

chmod +x hero_wizard.py

I haven't added the package's dependencies yet, and this UI was created using QT, so make sure the python3-pyqt5 package is installed. Use python3-pyqt5 for ROS noetic, and python-pyqt5 for ROS melodic. You can use apt or similar to install:

sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5

To advance your tests, here is a short video showing step-by-step guide for first use of hero wizard: IMAGE ALT TEXT HERE

If your find any issue feel free to reach me out.

Best,

Thanks for the quick response,

I'm a Robotics student at UWE Bristol in the UK and have been spreading word to students and professors about your project as an alternative to the E-pucks we have.

When running via roslaunch i get this error: [cid:e02114e4-6494-4da5-9e59-41aa87f3e4c8]

When running using rosrun i get this, however nothing happens: [cid:5fbe1998-2c43-4d03-87bb-b09eb6c9264d]

chmod gives no feedback: [cid:1323671c-e0b2-4360-96c9-4e378a8ead2d]

Thanks,

Apologies! I spotted my own error, It was the urdfdom-py that was missing!
