Container Images Used For PX4 SITL Simulation

How-to-Build

• Clone the repositoy including submodules:

git clone https://github.com/kestr31/PX4-SITL-Containers.git --recursive

• Build process is automated using bash script build.sh.
• build.sh allows use of following arguments:
  • all: Build all modified images (AirSim, QGroundControl, ROS2).
  • airsim: Build AirSim image.
  • qgc: Build QGroundControl image.
  • ros2: Build ROS2 image.
• Example usage is as following:

./scripts/build.sh airsim

• You can modify the username in the image name by changing the CONTAINER_BUILD_USERNAME at scripts/include/commonEnv.sh..

Base image and tag are currently hard-coded in the script.
