Gazebo Launch : Run and manage programs and plugins

|---|---|
| Test coverage |  |
| Ubuntu Noble | |
| Homebrew | |
| Windows |
Gazebo Launch, a component of Gazebo, provides a command line interface to run and manage application and plugins.
Table of Contents
Features
Gazebo Launch is used to run and manage plugins and programs. A
configuration script can be used to specify which programs and plugins to
execute. Alternatively, individual programs and plugins can be run from the
command line. Example configuration scripts are located in the examples
directory.
- Automatic ERB parsing of configuration files.
- Pass arguments to launch files from the command line.
- Plugins to launch Gazebo Sim, joystick interface, and a websocket server for simulation.
Install
See the installation tutorial.
Usage
Sample launch configuration files are in the examples directory.
Example
- Run a configuration that launches Gazebo.
gz launch sim.gzlaunch
Known issue of command line tools
In the event that the installation is a mix of Debian and from source, command
line tools from gz-tools may not work correctly.
A workaround is to define the environment variable
GZ_CONFIG_PATH to point to the different locations of the Gazebo libraries installations,
where the YAML files for the packages are found, such as
export GZ_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/share/gz:$HOME/ws/install/share/gz
where $HOME/ws is an example colcon workspace used to build Gazebo
Documentation
