VRX Gazebosim Port - osrf/vrx GitHub Wiki
We're happy to announce VRX will soon be switching over from Gazebo Classic to the newer Gazebo simulator (formerly Ignition Gazebo).
Key Details:
Timeline
- The bulk of the port should be finished by the end of 2022.
After the Port
Once the port is complete:
- the ported version of VRX will become the default;
- the current version, based on Gazebo Classic, will be moved to the vrx_classic branch and archived;
- the default interface will transition from ROS 1 to ROS 2;
- tutorials and documentation will be updated to work with the ported version.
During the Port
- We continue to review and triage all issues and pull requests.
- However, PRs that introduce major updates or add new functionality may need to wait for final approval until the port is complete.
Status
- The new version is currently being developed in the gazebosim branch of this repository.
- Please be aware that this code is under active development. It may not work or may be missing key features. Support is extremely limited.
- Users wishing to preview the ported version may follow the draft tutorials for installing and running from the gazebosim branch.
