🐨 Incredibots Wombat

Custom settings for the Wombat. The Ethernet port on the Wombat makes it trivial to attach the Wombat to wifi, and therefore to pull code down from GitHub.

🚀 Quick Start

Before you start, you're going to want a USB keyboard, and maybe a mouse.

1. Connect the Wombat to internet using the Ethernet port.
2. Open the terminal in the Wombat: Use Alt+F2 and then type x-terminal-emulator and hit the green checkmark.
3. Clone this repository if it is not already on the Wombat:

git clone https://github.com/rockvillerobotics/IncredibotsWombat.git

If the repo is already on the Wombat, enter the IncredibotsWombat directory and run:

git pull origin master

4. Run the setup script:

cd IncredibotsWombat/
./setup_wombat.sh

When prompted to continue, hit Y.

5. When you are finished, exit the terminal with Ctrl+D

📁 Wombat File Structure

• The home directory ~ is located at /home/pi
• Code is stored in /home/root/Documents/KISS/user/project/
• Within the project, user/project/bin/botball_user_program is a symbolic link to the main file in bin/. In Python, this would be bin/main.py
• Source code exists in both user/project/bin/ and user/project/src/ directories. We are not sure which of these is essential at the moment, so upload to both just in case.
