Learning ROS setup scripts
The scripts here assume that you have an account on github (which is free at github.com).
You will need "git" installed on your machine to use these scripts. If "git" is not already
installed on your machine, it can be installed with:
sudo apt-get --yes --force-yes install git
Getting the scripts and making them executable
To run these scripts, clone learning_ros_setup_scripts anywhere on your computer by typing the following in any directory:
git clone https://github.com/wsnewman/learning_ros_setup_scripts.git
Once you have the files, change the directory to learning_ros_setup_scripts by typing:
cd learning_ros_setup_scripts
After this, make the scripts executable by typing:
chmod +x *.sh
ROS Setup

For other versions of install script, please refer to the respective folders for the install scripts.
Workstation Setup
To setup your ROS workspace for ROS Melodic, use the setup_workspace_learning_ros_melodic.sh script. You will need to pass your
github username and email as arguments to the script:
./setup_workspace_learning_ros_melodic.sh github_username github@email.com
(or bash setup_workspace_learning_ros_melodic.sh github_username github@email.com)
where github_username is your username on github, and github@email.com is your e-mail address associated with your
github account.
