create machine image or basis thereof for easy usage on virtualization platforms #33
Comments
Best practices and available tools have improved substantially since original creation of this issue, motivating its rekindling and generalization beyond VirtualBox. |
The OP will have been addressed when two use-cases are treated:
In both cases, the process of round-trip usage on a local host should be demonstrated and documented. E.g., editing an existing example locally, running it remotely, and getting a copy of the results locally. |
The second use-case is addressed, and the proposed solution is available as a Vagrant file under contrib/. It has been tested both locally under Linux x86_64 and also on a remote host with non-superuser capabilities; the latter is documented at contrib/nonroot-vagrant-instructions.md. |
I shifted the first use-case to a later milestone because it may require a few iterations to arrive at a reliable solution because achieving round-trip file manipulation for an EC2 instance on AWS in a more sophisticated manner than repeated usage of |
For the first use-case, I propose to use Ansible, which can be written to support multiple cloud computing providers. I can most quickly develop this for AWS and GCP. |

To allow easier installation of TuLiP, create a VirtualBox image containing all of the python packages, etc.
COMMENTS from https://sourceforge.net/p/tulip-control/feature-requests/21/:
2012-06-23 by @slivingston: A link to a vm image has been posted on the tulip SF.net wiki page. It has size approximately 1.5 GB and thus is hosted off-site at http://vehicles.caltech.edu/tulip/TuLiP-takeover.ova
2013-05-06 by @slivingston: The previous image fell out of date, and then I accidentally deleted it on the vehicles.caltech server. We should consider making the image more interesting by including other things such as LTLMoP, the Open Motion Planning Library (http://ompl.kavrakilab.org/), PRISM (http://www.prismmodelchecker.org/), etc., pending redistribution-friendly licenses.
A good start would be to build on the virtual machine image distributed with ROS at http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/Installation ; direct link is http://nootrix.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/rosGroovyGalapagos.ova
I am also re-assigning this task from me to "None". Contributors are welcome!
