Using Travis CI? Take a look at ros-industrial/industrial_ci.

This repository contains helper scripts and instructions on how to use Continuous Integration (CI) for ROS projects hosted on a GitLab instance.

Supported ROS releases (older release should be supported too):

• melodic
• noetic

This repository uses the ROS Docker images to compile your packages, it does not run tests by default.

Your repository must be hosted on a GitLab instance with CI working and Docker support.

Create a .gitlab-ci.yml that looks like this:

image: ros:noetic-ros-core

cache:
  paths:
    - ccache/

before_script:
  - apt update >/dev/null && apt install -y git >/dev/null
  - git clone https://gitlab.com/VictorLamoine/ros_gitlab_ci.git >/dev/null
  - source ros_gitlab_ci/gitlab-ci.bash >/dev/null

catkin_make:
  stage: build
  script:
    - catkin_make

catkin tools:
  stage: build
  script:
    - catkin build --summarize --no-status --force-color

Commit, push to your repository and watch the pipeline! (make sure pipelines are enabled in your project settings).

If you want to test your packages after building them, read the example package section.

• DISABLE_CCACHE (false by default), if defined to true: disables ccache gcc output caching.
• USE_ROSDEP (true by default) use rosdep to install dependencies. Define to false to disable.
• ROSINSTALL_CI_JOB_TOKEN (false by default), if defined to true: makes it possible to clone private repositories using wstool by using the CI job permissions mode. Requires GitLab 8.12 minimum and that the private repositories are on the same GitLab server.
• WSTOOL_RECURSIVE (false by default), if defined to true: wstool will be used to cloned recursively every repositories specified in the *.rosinstall files. For this feature to work:
  • The rosinstall file names must be unique
  • No repository may contain a space in it's name

Just add them after sourcing gitlab-ci.bash in the before_script section, for example:

before_script:
 - apt update >/dev/null && apt install -y git >/dev/null
 - git clone https://gitlab.com/VictorLamoine/ros_gitlab_ci.git >/dev/null
 - source ros_gitlab_ci/gitlab-ci.bash >/dev/null
 - apt install -y liblapack-dev ros-noetic-uuid-msgs >/dev/null

Example usage:

catkin lint:
  stage: test
  image: ros:noetic-ros-core
  needs: []
before_script:
    - apt update >/dev/null && apt install -y python3-catkin-lint >/dev/null
  script:
    - catkin_lint -W2 .

You can also test you packages using the ROS testing tools and GitLab CI pipelines.
