Respected members whenever i build a package, every time i need to run source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash command. is there anyway to solve it ? while installing ROS i used this command source /opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash because in case of my friend he doesn't need to run everytime. he just did it in the beginning of ROS installation.
Please help.
Thanks in advance
Add following environment variables to your .bashrc file
source /opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash
export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=/home/user/catkin_ws:/opt/ros/kinetic/share:/opt/ros/kinetic/stacks
export ROS_WORKSPACE=/home/user/catkin_ws
Additionally we have an alias alias S='source ${HOME}/.bashrc' to quickly source after building new packages, very useful
Add it to your .basrhc file in home directory with this command:
echo "source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash" >> ~/.bashrc"
Then source your .bashrc file with source ~/.bashrc or restart terminal.
