Hi community,
I need an opinion from you.
I want to use a tool that allows me to automatically generate the skeleton
of an Orocos component from a OWL file descriptor (ontology).
The idea is that I define a set of "model of components" (Controller,
Trajectory, Tracker etc.) using, for example, information like:
nameComponent, portName(1...n),portDataType, propertyName,propertyType.
At this point the idea is that I want to use a tool like "ontolgy2orocos
Controller.owl" and it generates a directory with the component skeleton as
orocreate-pkg do....
So, I have found 3 ways to do it: BRIDE, VARP or simply modify the
orocreate-pkg script...
What do you think is the best way in terms of usability, stability and
developing time?
Thanks,
Fabrizio

Have you considered extending orogen ? There is a plugin system that
would allow you to do just that ...
http://rock-robotics.org/stable/documentation/orogen
BRIDE-VARP or orocreate-pkg
Yes I have done!
Honestly I don't like the dependency of Orogen from Ruby because I use rFSM
and my situation awareness with LUA and I don't want to use more than one
high-level language in my architecture.
With the occasion I want to invite you to the CRAS conference where I will
present the Eurosurge architecture: http://www.cascade-fp7.eu/cras2013.

Fabrizio

This is quite a weird argument. You just have to generate an orogen file
"text" and run a command line tool (ugly, but would give you what you
want). Moreover, you are fine with having a dependency on eclipse
(BRIDE) ... *cough* *cough*

fair enough, could you send give me a simple example?
Following this page
http://rock-robotics.org/stable/documentation/tutorials/110_basics_creat...
seems that Orogen create an ecosystem that I don't want/need. I want a
simply and basic rtt component that integrates my ports description.

The ecosystem is available, it is not needed.
oroGen runs in the "plain" orocos toolchain (i.e. without rock) and is
mainly exactly what you want. As for giving you examples, just have a
look at any of the orogen-* projects on
http://gitorious.org/rock-drivers/ (for instance)
All you have to do is
- generate the orogen file
- run orogen <file.orogen>

This sounds, to me, that you only will have to generate toy examples
from your toy ontology, then. Generating and maintaining actual
components, with all their complexities, is going to require more than
four lines of shell scripting.
BRIDE-VARP or orocreate-pkg
Ok I check it... thanks a lot!

BRIDE-VARP or orocreate-pkg
BRIDE is being rewritten under a new name... Rodinia. It wil NOT be
ready for what you need until August or September. I would probrably
go for the orocreate-pkg script if you need something immediate.
