Directions for staring with the classic FlexBE App

FlexBE App Installation

The classic FlexBE App can be used as well.

If building the FlexBE App from source, you must download and install the required nwjs binaries before you can run the FlexBE App:

ros2 run flexbe_app nwjs_install

Note: These are installed in the install folder. If the install folder is deleted, then the nwjs binaries will need to be reinstalled with this script.

FlexBE App Start Up

Start the FlexBE system using either

ros2 launch flexbe_app flexbe_full.launch.py use_sim_time:=False

or the individual components

ros2 launch flexbe_onboard behavior_onboard.launch.py use_sim_time:=False

ros2 run flexbe_mirror behavior_mirror_sm --ros-args --remap __node:="behavior_mirror" -p use_sim_time:=False

ros2 run flexbe_app run_app --ros-args --remap name:="flexbe_app" -p use_sim_time:=False

ros2 run flexbe_widget be_launcher --ros-args --remap name:="behavior_launcher" -p use_sim_time:=False

Afterwards, the basic directions are the same for flexbe_webui.
