Gazebo GUI builds on top of Qt to provide widgets which are useful when developing robotics applications, such as a 3D view, plots, dashboard, etc, and can be used together in a convenient unified interface.
Gazebo GUI ships with several widgets ready to use and offers a plugin interface which can be used to add custom widgets.
- Qt-based widgets, with support for both Qt5 widgets and QtQuick
- Plugin-based interface, so it's easy to add new widgets
- Several plugins ready to be used
- 3D scene integration using Gazebo Rendering
See the installation tutorial.
Take a look at the tutorials for usage instructions and API documentation.
In the event that the installation is a mix of Debian and from source, command
line tools from gz-tools
may not work correctly.
A workaround for a single package is to define the environment variable
IGN_CONFIG_PATH
to point to the location of the Gazebo library installation,
where the YAML file for the package is found, such as
export IGN_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/share/ignition
Multiple paths can be specified using the :
delimiter. For example,
export IGN_CONFIG_PATH=/user/local/share/ignition/:/path/to/some/other/location
-
include/ignition/gui
: Contains all the files which will be installed, such as C++ headers,.qrc
,.qss
andqml
files. Plugin-specific resources go under/plugins
; everything in the top-level is meant to be of common use across plugins. -
src
: Contains all the C++ source code and headers which are not installed. Plugin-specific code goes under/plugins
. -
test
: All integration, performance and regression tests go here, under their specific folders. -
examples/standalone
: Example code for standalone applications using Gazebo GUI as a library. Each example has instructions in a README file. -
examples/config
: Example configuration files which can be loaded usingign gui -c <path to file>
-
examples/plugin
: Example plugins which can be compiled and loaded as explained in this tutorial. -
tutorials
: Markdown files for the tutorials. -
conf
: Files needed by gz-tools. -
doc
: Files used by Doxygen when generating documentation.
