useage is very easy, just download the ros2\_pkg\_create.py and put in a workspace(direction),

and run 🙂

```auto
python3 ros2_pkg_create <package_name>

```

such as create demo\_pkg:

```auto
python3 ros2_pkg_create demo_pkg

```

output is :

🚀 正在生成混合功能包: my\_pkg  
✅ 已创建: src/my\_pkg/CMakeLists.txt  
✅ 已创建: src/my\_pkg/package.xml  
✅ 已创建: src/my\_pkg/setup.cfg  
✅ 已创建: src/my\_pkg/LICENSE  
✅ 已创建: src/my\_pkg/src/hello\_world.cpp  
✅ 已创建目录: src/my\_pkg/include/my\_pkg/  
✅ 已创建: src/my\_pkg/src/script\_node.py  
✅ 已创建: src/my\_pkg/my\_pkg/ **init**.py  
✅ 已创建: src/my\_pkg/my\_pkg/py\_node.py

🎉 功能包 [my\_pkg] 生成完毕！  
💡 提示: 记得在 CMakeLists.txt 中根据需要补充依赖项。

按照以下步骤进行下一步操作:  
💡 1.编译功能包: colcon build --symlink-install --packages-select my\_pkg  
💡 2.安装功能包: source install/setup.bash  
🚀 3.测试可执行程序: hello\_world  
🚀 4.测试 C++节点: ros2 run my\_pkg hello\_world  
🚀 5.测试 Python 节点: ros2 run my\_pkg script\_node  
🚀 6.测试 Python 模块: ros2 run my\_pkg my\_py\_node

follow the instructions in output, you can build and run package in one minute.

you will get a ros2 pkg template, you can easily add C++ , Python and normal executable.
