Hi!
I just created a new branch main for ManyMove: this represents a unified codebase that compiles on both Humble and Jazzy while retaining all previous functionalities.
To make testing ManyMove easier, I also created docker builds that will prepare a container ready to run examples.The most complete container is the one that also sets up xarm_ros2, so you’ll be able to run all examples.
Here’s an even shorter startup than the one in the docs for a quick setup for humble. Change
MANYMOVE_ROS_WS to your desired folder:
export MANYMOVE_ROS_WS=~/workspaces/dev_ws
mkdir -p ${MANYMOVE_ROS_WS}/src
cd ${MANYMOVE_ROS_WS}/src
git clone https://github.com/pastoriomarco/manymove.git -b main
${MANYMOVE_ROS_WS}/src/manymove/manymove_bringup/docker/run_manymove_xarm_container.sh humble
Then, inside the container, for Panda example:
ros2 launch manymove_bringup panda_moveitcpp_fake_cpp_trees.launch.py
Still inside the container, for UFactory dual robot example:
ros2 launch manymove_bringup dual_moveitcpp_fake_app.launch.py
I’m not sure this unified humble/jazzy approach is a good one, but I was investing too much time propagating the development on both branches. At least now I have some simple CI and tests to keep it checked, and I need to update just one branch. The dev branch will be the one where I keep developing, merging to main when the new code is stable and checked.
If anyone finds trouble setting up or running ManyMove let me know!
PS: I mainly tested it in Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04, but it seems it works on WSL2 on Win11 too, just make sure to install docker following ubuntu instructions, including linux postinstall
