Middleware

We recommend CycloneDDS as a middleware. Note: this makes all nodes started using this RMW incompatible with any other nodes not using Cyclone DDS. sudo apt install ros-$ROS_DISTRO-rmw-cyclonedds-cpp export RMW_IMPLEMENTATION=rmw_cyclonedds_cpp You may want to add `export RMW_IMPLEMENTATION=rmw_cyclonedds_cpp` to your ~/.bashrc to source it automatically.

Other Setups

Source Build: Linux

See build instructions

Virtual Machines

We recommend developing with MoveIt on a native Ubuntu install. If you are unable to run Linux natively on your machine, the next best thing would be to set up a virtual machine using VMware. There are known issues with the ROS visualization tool RViz when used with VirtualBox - be sure to enable virtualization in your BIOS.

About Our Release Process

MoveIt 2 is released every few months into Ubuntu debian packages via the ROS infrastructure. For more information see the ROS 2 target platforms and MoveIt 2’s release process.
