Groot is a Graphical Editor, written in C++ and Qt, to create BehaviorTrees.
It is compliant with the the library BehaviorTree.CPP.
In the following video you can see how the C++ library and the graphic user interface are used to design and monitor a Behavior Tree.
No company, institution or public/private funding is currently supporting the development of BehaviorTree.CPP and Groot. As a consequence, my time to support BehaviorTree.CPP is very limited and I decided that I won't spend any time at all supporting Groot. Pull Requests are welcome and will be reviewed, even if with some delay.
If your company use this software, consider becoming a sponsor to support bug fixing and development of new features. You can find contact details in package.xml.
To compile the project you need:
- CMake 3.2
- Qt5 (tested with version 5.5.1), including the SVG module.
On Ubuntu Xenial or later, you can install the dependencies with:
sudo apt install qtbase5-dev libqt5svg5-dev libzmq3-dev libdw-dev
Some functionalities of the code related to ROS will work only if the project is compiled with with catkin.
git clone https://github.com/BehaviorTree/Groot.git
cd Groot
git submodule update --init --recursive
mkdir build; cd build
cmake ..
make
Note compiling "in-source" is not allowed.
mkdir -p catkin_ws/src
cd catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/BehaviorTree/Groot.git
cd ..
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src
catkin_make
