Accessing install directory from a custom caktin tools verb
I would like to create my own verb called 'rsync' that deploys cross-compiled ROS packages on a destination target device using ssh over rsync. In order to do so, I need to access the install directory for my current build profile.
As per the instructions I have created a python script rsync.py that looks something like this.
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
def main(opts):
for target in opts.targets:
os.system("rsync -avz -e ssh " + install_dir + " " + target)
return 0
def prepare_arguments(parser):
add = parser.add_argument
# What packages to build
add('targets', nargs='*',
help='List of target names to rsync the files to.')
return parser
description = dict(
verb='rsync',
description="Deploy products to the robot over rsync",
main=main,
prepare_arguments=prepare_arguments
)
My issue is that I cannot set the install_dir variable in the main function to the correct value for the current build profile. Does catkin tools provide a python module that I can get this information from?
