and then run below command for define ros directory and commands for ubuntu(14.04) and it's ok(before that commands not define in terminal such as roscd,roscore,...)

source /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash

Hey, you need to setup a Catkin workspace, there are a list of tutorials for how to use, and setup catkin.

http://wiki.ros.org/catkin/Tutorials

Once you have done this, you can clone the git repo for Rplidar_ros into '~/catkin_ws/src' folder for example, and then run catkin_make from '~/catkin_ws' folder to build it.
