Package Summary

Extensions for slime to assist in working with ROS packages

Overview

This is an extension of Slime (a "contrib") that helps you to deal with ASDF systems in ROS packages. It also adds a REPL shortcut ros-load-system to the slime REPL.

Installation

For a Debian package

$ sudo apt-get install ros-DISTRO-slime-ros

Then call the initialization script that generates .sbclrc in your home directory for configuring your SBCL.

$ rosrun slime_ros slime_ros_init

And then add the following to your Emacs configuration file:

(require 'slime-config "/opt/ros/DISTRO/share/slime_ros/slime-config.el")

From source

The most up-to-date version of slime_ros code can be found here. Installation instructions are in the README file. What you'll need to do will be something like the following:

$ cd YOUR_CATKIN_WS/src
$ wstool set ros_emacs_utils --git https://github.com/code-iai/ros_emacs_utils.git
$ wstool update ros_emacs_utils
$ cd ..
$ catkin_make
$ catkin_make install
$ emacs -nw ~/.emacs.d/init.el # edit your emacs configuration file

How to use

If you've set up your emacs init file correctly you should be able to start the REPL by typing M-x slime. Now, by pressing , (coma) in an empty REPL prompt, you can select the shortcut ros-load-system. Press enter and select a ROS package and an ASDF system inside this ROS package. Slime will set the variable ros-load:*current-ros-package* and perform a load operation on the selected system.

The package contains one customization variable, slime-ros-completion-function. It allows the user to select ido mode completion or similar completion mechanisms. To change its value, use M-x customize-group slime-ros.
