The Mammoth repository contains code which will be used on the Mammoth robot. For code that is compatible with Yeti, go to the Yeti repository, or use this code on Yeti/other robots at your own risk. This repository supports launches for both simulation and robot deployments of Mammoth.

You're going to want to have ROS2 installed. Here's the instructions for Debian/Ubuntu 20.

If you are going to be running simulation, follow the Binary Install instructions for Ignition Gazebo.

Install gflags by running: sudo apt-get install libgflags-dev

1. Change directory into your colcon workspace folder. Example: cd ~/ros_ws/
2. Clone the repository into your colcon workspace: vcs import src --input https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iscumd/Mammoth/master/mammoth.repos
3. Run rosdep to get ros dependencies:
   sudo rosdep init
rosdep update
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -y
4. Build the colcon workspace: colcon build
5. Source the local workspace: . install/setup.bash

For information on launching and running the project, head to the following packages and view the ReadMe.

• Robot -> mammoth_snowplow
• Simulation -> mammoth_gazebo

1. Create a issue describing a bug found or a feature to add.
2. Create a new branch or fork of the project. For branches, the name should describe the feature or bug you are trying to fix. Include a number that tags the issue that the change is associated with. Example: git checkout -b feat/11-estop-state or git checkout -b bug/6-compile-errors (11 & 6 being the issue number respectively)
3. Make changes on the new branch/fork.
4. Push changes to the branch/fork.
5. Confirm that it builds and solves the issue/implements the feature.
6. Make a pull request to merge the changes to the master branch, and link the appropriate issue to the pull request.
7. Have the pull request reviewed. Make any changes necessary to fix issues found.
8. Merge.
