2018-06-26 02:42:22 -0500 marked best answer Can sudo rosdep init and rosdep update be done offline?

I am trying to build a ros package which actually during compilation is asking me to call 'sudo rosdep init' and 'rosdep update'. Both of these require the machine to be connected to an active internet so that the necessary repositories can be downloaded. But in my case its near to impossible for me to connect that system to internet. So i was looking for an offline workaround. Is that possible??

EDIT::

As suggested in the posts i tried downloading all the yaml files from the urls and stored them in local disk. In /etc/ros/rosdep/sources.list.d i provided local path names to all the files. Then i tried running rosdep update and it shows "Hit file:///home/ros/Documents/ros......." At last line its shows error for index.yaml file. I downloaded that file too and provided it with a local path. Still that error comes which i guess might be due to the rosdep update configuration to automatically look for index.yaml file on repositories. Nonetheless the package which I was trying to compile still suggests me to run 'rosdep update'. The error says "Error: the rosdep view is empty: call 'sudo rosdep init' and 'rosdep update'"
