packbionics/ros repository overview

⁠packbionics/ros

ROS images for the Jetson Nano

⁠Motivation

Installing stuff is hard. Instead, we can install all the stuff correctly on one machine, and then create an 'image' of the machine for deployment on all other machines.

⁠Usage

⁠Retrieval

To pull an image from the registry:

$ docker pull packbionics/ros:tag-name

To run the image:

$ docker run -it packbionics/ros:tag-name (TODO: camera setup args in docker run)

Once the container is running, you should see it by running $ docker container ls in a separate terminal

⁠Inside Container

Inside the container, start ROS: # roscore

This will block the current terminal session. To start another terminal in the container:

$ docker exec -it container_name bash

To restart an exited container:

$ docker start -i container_name

⁠Uploading

After installing stuff in the container, commit the container to an image:

$ docker commit container_name packbionics/ros:tag-name

Push image to the registry:

$ docker image push packbionics/ros:tag-name
