Downloading and Deploying the SDK

Now that the virtualization environment is ready, this section discusses how you can download the SDK from the https://github.com/QuanergySystems GitHub page shown in Figure 1 on page 7, then integrate the sensor with the SDK. The sequence of the SDK acquisition is important: first quanergy_client and second quanergy_client_ros.

quanergy_client

Download the quanergy_client source code, as follows:

  1. Select quanergy_client from the Repositories list shown in Figure 1 on page 7.

  2. The resulting page (Figure 28) offers the latest formal release.

  1. To properly download the source code to your local machine (instead of using the Clone or download button):

  • Click the link where indicated in Figure 28 to open the Ubuntu 14.04 LTS or Ubuntu 16.04 LTS README Build Instructions. (Example instructions that might be outdated are shown in Figure 29; cut and paste from the latest online version.)

  • Open a new terminal window, then execute each command in the order it appears in the README. Type y in response to each prompt question that comes up.

quanergy_client_ros

Download the quanergy_client_ros source code, as follows:

  1. Select quanergy_client from the Repositories list shown in Figure 1 on page 7.

  2. The resulting page (Figure 30) offers the latest formal release.

  1. To properly download the source code to your local machine (instead of using the Clone or download button):

  • Click the link where indicated in Figure 30 to open the nearly identical Ubuntu 14.04 LTS or Ubuntu 16.04 LTS README Build Instructions. (Example instructions that might be outdated are shown in Figure 31; cut and paste from the latest online version.)

  • Open a new terminal window, then execute each command in the order it appears in the README. Type y in response to each prompt question that comes up. After you provide the sensor’s IP address, you are ready to use the sensor.
