An alternative installation using Docker can be found here

This guide is meant for an Ubuntu 22.04

https://docs.ros.org/en/humble/Installation.html

We use Cyclone DDS, here is a link for reference, but there is no need to install more than what's already included in the following steps.

After ROS2 Humble installation is completed, you should add the following to your bashrc.

source /opt/ros/humble/setup.bash
export RMW_IMPLEMENTATION=rmw_cyclonedds_cpp

curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh

You may add to your bashrc, or source it anytime you want to build reachy_ws (the above script might have added this to your bashrc already)

source "$HOME/.cargo/env"

apt-get install -y git-lfs
git lfs install

https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html

mkdir ~/reachy_ws && cd ~/reachy_ws
mkdir src && cd src
git clone https://github.com/pollen-robotics/reachy_2023.git

cp ~/reachy_ws/src/reachy_2023/reachy_utils/reachy_utils/files/reachy.yaml ~/

cd ~/reachy_ws
./src/reachy_2023/dependencies.sh
pip install -r ./src/reachy_2023/requirements.txt
colcon build --symlink-install

Now you can add the following lines to your bashrc

source ~/reachy_ws/install/setup.bash
source /usr/share/gazebo/setup.bash

If there is multiple ROS2 environement on the same network, you should think about using adding ROS_DOMAIN_ID yo your bashrc as well. (choosing an integer between 0 and 101 inclusive as domain ID is a safe bet) e.g.

export ROS_DOMAIN_ID=42

For a more detailed explanation os this mechanic, please have a look at this documentation

mkdir ~/dev && cd ~/dev
git clone https://github.com/pollen-robotics/reachy-sdk-api.git
cd ~/dev/reachy-sdk-api/python
pip3 install -e .
pip3 install scipy

ros2 launch reachy_bringup reachy.launch.py  -s

This command should give you a list a currently accepted arguments by reachy.launch.py, if you want to try things by yourself. Let's walk you through some of these.

ros2 launch reachy_bringup reachy.launch.py  fake:=true start_rviz:=true

ros2 launch reachy_bringup reachy.launch.py  gazebo:=true

ros2 topic pub /dynamic_joint_commands control_msgs/msg/DynamicJointState "header:
  stamp:
    sec: 0
    nanosec: 0
  frame_id: ''
joint_names:
- l_shoulder_pitch
interface_values:
- interface_names:
  - position
  values:
  - -1.0
"

ros2 control list_hardware_interfaces

ros2 launch reachy_bringup reachy.launch.py  gazebo:=true start_sdk_server:=true

import reachy_sdk

my_awesome_reachy = reachy_sdk.ReachySDK(host="localhost")
my_awesome_reachy.head.look_at(0.5, 0, -0.5, 4)
my_awesome_reachy.l_arm.l_elbow_pitch.goal_position = -90

from reachy_sdk.trajectory import goto

goto({my_awesome_reachy.l_arm.l_elbow_pitch: 0}, 10)

Now that is everything is set up properly on your environment, let's try to move some real stuff.
