Ever wanted to package your ROS nodes as Debian packages, but couldn't figure out how to use the ROS buildfarm? Want to build packages for an unsupported architecture/rosdistro combination? Look no further!

multipack is a Docker-based tool to build and package your ROS packages for Debian. Releasing them is an excercise for the reader.

Run the container while mounting the directory containing your package in /rosbuild/src:

docker run --rm -v /path/to/ros/packages:/rosbuild/src -v /path/to/binary/packages:/output sfalexrog/multipack:melodic
