export GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH=`pwd`/models
gazebo worlds/bookstore.world

ROS Launch with Gazebo viewer (without a robot)

# build for ROS
rosdep install --from-paths . --ignore-src -r -y
colcon build

# run in ROS
source install/setup.sh
roslaunch aws_robomaker_bookstore_world bookstore.launch

Building

Include this as a .rosinstall dependency in your SampleApplication simulation workspace. colcon build will build this repository.

To build it outside an application, note there is no robot workspace. It is a simulation workspace only.

$ rosws update
$ rosdep install --from-paths . --ignore-src -r -y
$ colcon build

Robot Simulation - Initial Position

A reasonable initial position would be near the service desk at (0.5,1.0,0.0).
