在Linux Mint 19.3中安装ROS for PX4的开发环境脚本

Linux Mint19.3是基于ubuntu的一个发型版本，PX4官网的给的ROS安装环境是在ubuntu中的自动安装脚本。但是，本人觉得ubuntu系统比较笨重，所以一直用Mint。也就得在官网的安装脚本上进行改动才能安装成功。

#!/bin/bash

## Bash script for setting up ROS Melodic (with Gazebo 9) development environment for PX4 on Ubuntu LTS (18.04).
## It installs the common dependencies for all targets (including Qt Creator)
##
## Installs:
## - Common dependencies libraries and tools as defined in `ubuntu_sim_common_deps.sh`
## - ROS Melodic (including Gazebo9)
## - MAVROS

if [[ $(lsb_release -sc) == *"xenial"* ]]; then
  echo "OS version detected as $(lsb_release -sc) (16.04)."
  echo "ROS Melodic requires at least Ubuntu 18.04."
  echo "Exiting ...."
  return 1;
fi

echo "Downloading dependent script 'ubuntu_sim_common_deps.sh'"
# Source the ubuntu_sim_common_deps.sh script directly from github
common_deps=$(wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PX4/Devguide/master/build_scripts/ubuntu_sim_common_deps.sh -O -)
wget_return_code=$?
# If there was an error downloading the dependent script, we must warn the user and exit at this point.
if [[ $wget_return_code -ne 0 ]]; then echo "Error downloading 'ubuntu_sim_common_deps.sh'. Sorry but I cannot proceed further :("; exit 1; fi
# Otherwise source the downloaded script.
. <(echo "${common_deps}")

# ROS Melodic
## Gazebo simulator dependencies
sudo apt-get install protobuf-compiler libeigen3-dev libopencv-dev -y

## ROS Gazebo: http://wiki.ros.org/melodic/Installation/Ubuntu
## Setup keys
#sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'
#sudo apt-key adv --keyserver 'hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80' --recv-key C1CF6E31E6BADE8868B172B4F42ED6FBAB17C654
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/ros/ubuntu/ bionic main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-key 421C365BD9FF1F717815A3895523BAEEB01FA116
## For keyserver connection problems substitute hkp://pgp.mit.edu:80 or hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 above.
sudo apt-get update
## Get ROS/Gazebo
sudo apt install ros-melodic-desktop-full -y
## Initialize rosdep
sudo rosdep init
rosdep update
## Setup environment variables
rossource="source /opt/ros/melodic/setup.bash"
if grep -Fxq "$rossource" ~/.bashrc; then echo ROS setup.bash already in .bashrc;
else echo "$rossource" >> ~/.bashrc; fi
eval $rossource

## Install rosinstall and other dependencies
sudo apt install python-rosdep python-rosinstall python-rosinstall-generator python-wstool build-essential -y



# MAVROS: https://dev.px4.io/en/ros/mavros_installation.html
## Install dependencies
sudo apt-get install python-catkin-tools python-rosinstall-generator -y

## Create catkin workspace
mkdir -p ~/catkin_ws/src
cd ~/catkin_ws
catkin init
wstool init src


## Install MAVLink
###we use the Kinetic reference for all ROS distros as it's not distro-specific and up to date
rosinstall_generator --rosdistro kinetic mavlink | tee /tmp/mavros.rosinstall

## Build MAVROS
### Get source (upstream - released)
rosinstall_generator --rosdistro melodic --upstream mavros | tee -a /tmp/mavros.rosinstall

### Setup workspace & install deps
wstool merge -t src /tmp/mavros.rosinstall
wstool update -t src
#if ! rosdep install --rosdistro melodic--os=ubuntu:bionic --from-paths src --ignore-src -y; then
if ! rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro melodic -y --os ubuntu:bionic; then
    # (Use echo to trim leading/trailing whitespaces from the unsupported OS name
    unsupported_os=$(echo $(rosdep db 2>&1| grep Unsupported | awk -F: '{print $2}'))
    rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro melodic -y --os ubuntu:bionic
fi

if [[ ! -z $unsupported_os ]]; then
    >&2 echo -e "\033[31mYour OS ($unsupported_os) is unsupported. Assumed an Ubuntu 18.04 installation,"
    >&2 echo -e "and continued with the installation, but if things are not working as"
    >&2 echo -e "expected you have been warned."
fi

#Install geographiclib
sudo apt install geographiclib-tools -y
echo "Downloading dependent script 'install_geographiclib_datasets.sh'"
# Source the install_geographiclib_datasets.sh script directly from github
install_geo=$(wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mavlink/mavros/master/mavros/scripts/install_geographiclib_datasets.sh -O -)
wget_return_code=$?
# If there was an error downloading the dependent script, we must warn the user and exit at this point.
if [[ $wget_return_code -ne 0 ]]; then echo "Error downloading 'install_geographiclib_datasets.sh'. Sorry but I cannot proceed further :("; exit 1; fi
# Otherwise source the downloaded script.
sudo bash -c "$install_geo"

## Build!
catkin build
## Re-source environment to reflect new packages/build environment
catkin_ws_source="source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash"
if grep -Fxq "$catkin_ws_source" ~/.bashrc; then echo ROS catkin_ws setup.bash already in .bashrc;
else echo "$catkin_ws_source" >> ~/.bashrc; fi
eval $catkin_ws_source

该脚本只是将安装的步骤些成了脚本自动执行，每个步骤都可以自己单独执行。

由于时间改了快3个月了，具体的改动在哪也忘记了，如果需要知道可以跟官网的进行对比。主要是修改了Mint19.3的发行版本名称的问题。

建议安装的时候能翻墙，如果没有，执行到对应的步骤有问题时，得把当前安装的那个包删除干净再从新安装，要不然安装会不成功。
