1.1.11 (2022-12-21)

• MSA: Cleanup SimulationWidget (#3281)

  • Don't rewrite gazebo.launch after user changes
  • Only offer to write gazebo\_*.urdf if content would be non-empty
  • Clarify usage
  • Graceful opening of editor

• Remove capabilities declaration from pipeline configs (#3274)

  Capabilities are global to the move_group node and not specific to pipleline configs. As the latter ones load their parameters into a namespace, e.g. /move_group/planning_pipelines/ompl/*, loading a capability as suggested by the comments, didn't have any effect.

• Enabling the following new features requires recreation of your robot's MoveIt config with the new MSA!

• Various improvements (#2932)

  • Define default planner for Pilz pipeline

  • Allow checking/unchecking multiple files for generation

  • moveit.rviz: Use Orbit view controller

  • Rename launch argument execution_type -> fake_execution_type to clarify that this parameter is only used for fake controllers

  • demo.launch: Start joint + robot-state publishers in fake mode only

  • Modularize demo_gazebo.launch reusing demo.launch

  • gazebo.launch

    • Delay unpause to ensure that the robot's initial pose is actually held
    • Allow initial_joint_positions
    • Load URDF via xacro if neccessary

  • Rework moveit_controller_manager handling

    So far, move_group.launch distinguished between fake and real-robot operation only. The boolean launch-file argument fake_execution was translated to moveit_controller_manager = [fake|robot] in move_group.launch and then further translated to the actual plugin name.

    However, MoveIt provides 3 basic controller manager plugins:

    • fake = moveit_fake_controller_manager::MoveItFakeControllerManager (default in demo.launch)

      Doesn't really control the robot. Provides these interpolation types (fake_execution_type):

      • via points: jumps to the via points
      • interpolate: linearly interpolates between via points (default)
      • last point: jumps to the final trajectory point (used for fast execution testing)

    • ros_control = moveit_ros_control_interface::MoveItControllerManager

      Interfaces to ros_control controllers.

    • simple = moveit_simple_controller_manager/MoveItSimpleControllerManager Interfaces to action servers for FollowJointTrajectory and/or GripperCommand that in turn interface to the low-level robot controllers (typically based on ros_control).

    Now, the argument moveit_controller_manager allows for switching between these 3 variants using the given names. Adding more *_moveit_controller_manager.launch files allows for further extension of this scheme.

• Rework Controller Handling (#2945)

  • Write separate controller config files for different MoveIt controller managers:
    • fake_controllers.yaml for use with MoveItFakeControllerManager
    • simple_moveit_controllers.yaml handles everything relevant for MoveItSimpleControllerManager
    • ros_controllers.yaml defines ros_control controllers
    • gazebo_controllers.yaml lists controllers required for Gazebo
  • Rework controller config generation
    • Provide all types of JointTrajectoryController (position, velocity, and effort based) as well as FollowJointTrajectory and GripperCommand (use by simple controller manager)
    • Use effort_controllers/JointTrajectoryController as default
    • Create FollowJointTrajectory entries for any JointTrajectoryController
    • Fix controller list generation: always write joint names as a list
  • Code refactoring to clarify that controller widget handles all controllers, not only ros_control controllers
    • Update widget texts to speak about generic controllers
    • Rename ROSControllersWidget -> ControllersWidget
    • Rename files ros_controllers_widget.* -> controllers_widget.*
