hi , i want to make a robot, i install ros on raspberry and i want to get odometry with ros_arduino_bridge. so i have pololu shield VNH5019 and 2motor metal gear encoder. my problem is electrical, how to connect is how to pololu shield with motors? can you help me please if you have cable schematics please?

i just ask for connexion between motor and shield motor. i have this: My motor has 6 pins:

Red motor power (connects to one motor terminal) 
Black motor power (connects to the other motor terminal) 
Green encoder GND 
Blue encoder Vcc (3.5 – 20 V) 
Yellow encoder A output 
White encoder B output

and my shield:

M1INA Motor 1 direction input A 
M1INB Motor 1 direction input B 
M1EN/DIAG Motor 1 enable input/fault output 
M2INA Motor 2 direction input A 
M2INB Motor 2 direction input B 
M1PWM Motor 1 speed input 
M2PWM Motor 2 speed input 
M2EN/DIAG Motor 2 enable input/fault output 
M1CS Motor 1 current sense output
M2CS Motor 2 current sense output

As far as you showed here your board is not able to read odometry data. A link to the original board datasheet would help

As it is not the job of this board, the encoder connection should be made to the Arduino. I would ask this question on a hardware/basic robot page, not here.
