ROSUTILS - Standard directory

Intro

All the key scripts for bru are in a standard github repo, rosutils. You will find the following scripts:

• bru.py - the main script as described
• common_alias.bash - the standard collection of aliases for our robots andVMs.
• pi_connect.sh - the script for setting up a robot or VM with tailscale
• bashrc_template.bash - A template for the bashrc script for all Robots or VMs that are running BRU

Process for setting up a new robot or VM

Note that in general we set up a new robot by copying the MicroSD from a similar robot. This is here for completeness. Here are the steps:

1. Follow the Robot vendor instructions to set it up and set up ROS. All libraries, environment variables and so on should be set up in a standard way
2. Clone rosutils to ~ on the robot
3. Clone gpg_bran4 to ~/catkin_ws/src
4. Create a symbolic link from ~/rosutils/bru.py to ~/bin and chmod +x that file (details may be different.)
