Installation

First, open a terminal and create a catkin workspace by running the following:

mkdir -p catkin_ws/src
cd catkin_ws/src
catkin_init_workspace

We named our workspace catkin_ws, but this choice was arbitrary. Next clone the multibot repository:

git clone https://github.com/ept221/multibot.git

To get a list of top-level dependencies, run: rospack depends1 multibot. To view the complete dependency list, run: rospack depends multibot. To install all required dependencies, run:

rosdep update
rosdep install multibot

Then move up a directory and build the package:

cd ..
catkin_make

Next, add this line to your .bashrc file in your home directory to source the package.

source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

Finally, restart your terminal and you should be ready to go.
