I am trying to run revise for my rplidar but cannot get roslaunch to work. When i run roslaunch i get this error message.

Williams-MacBook-Pro:~ williamphoenix$ roslaunch Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/local/bin/roslaunch", line 34, in <module> import roslaunch ImportError: No module named roslaunch

I have done some research and it looks like my python path is wrong but don't know if that is the full effects of this error.

my python path

:/opt/ros/hydro/lib/python2.7

You need to source the setup.bash file first. It looks like you're setup file would be at /opt/ros/hydro/setup.bash.

You just run source /opt/ros/hydro/setup.bash. If you're having trouble I'd recommend setting up a Ubuntu VM and doing the ROS tutorials as well as reading the conceptual overview on the wiki.

When i do that it just tells me that there is no file or directory

Well in that case I don't know, I'd have to know more about how you installed ROS on your machine.

Please explain how you installed ROS incluidng what instructions you followed and if there were any errors. Possibly run through the installation again and show the output. You can edit your question to add more details.
