MicroRos installation

For the installation of MicroRos, we will use the ros2 command line tool. If you don't have it installed, you can follow the instructions here and make sure to choose the right ROS 2 distribution for your system and follow the instructions for your OS, I will be using ROS 2 Humble Hawksbill.

Installation (Official Summary)

  1. First, we need to add the MicroRos repository to the ROS 2 workspace. To do this, we will use the ros2 command line tool. Run the following command:

    • Create a new workspace in the location of your choice:
    mkdir -p micro_ros_ws
cd micro_ros_ws
    • Source ROS2 installation:
    source /opt/ros/humble/setup.zsh # or .bash if you are using bash
    • Add the MicroRos repository to the workspace:
    git clone -b $ROS_DISTRO https://github.com/micro-ROS/micro_ros_setup.git src/micro_ros_setup
    • Update the system packages, rosdep, and install dependencies and make sure you have pip3 installed:
    sudo apt-get update && rosdep update
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -r -y
sudo apt-get install python3-pip
    • Build the workspace and source it:
    colcon build
source install/local_setup.zsh # or .bash if you are using bash
