Graphical User Interface for ROS

Clone the repostitory

To begin, we will launch ROS. To do so, run the following in a terminal: roscore

Next, start publishing a message from the server to test our JavaScript subscriber: rostopic pub /listener std_msgs/String "Hello, World"

Then start subscribing to a topic to test publishing from the browser: rostopic echo /cmd_vel

Now run a service server that will return service calls from the browser: rosrun rospy_tutorials add_two_ints_server

Once everything is running, we can launch the rosbridge v2.0 server with the following: roslaunch rosbridge_server rosbridge_websocket.launch
