[Fiware-robotics] R: R: rcm_platform v2

[Colombatto Davide]

Hi Pepe,

130.206.114.100 is the IP of the CB only whereas the RCM_MASTER is a TI-VM.

You can (and we can also show in the demo) the information retrieved directly by the Robotics Data Mgmt (look at https://forge.fiware.org/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiwarei2nd/index.php/FIWARE.ArchitectureDescription.I2ND.Robotics#Architecture).
In particular you can use the RDAPI depicted in OpenSpecDraft (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eWO5MYYkjJEo1xLLm2YsX_bhCnET5eX4dm4_cL9MFg0/edit#), changing "MASTER_WAN_public_IP" in "jolcrab-platform.ddns.net", related to:
- Read platform (provisioned Robots)
	- Your robot will be shown as "pi_name":"turtlebotET"
	- "connected":true: the Robot's PM_AGENT is connected to the PM_MASTER
	- "paired":true: the Robot is paired with a Server (i.e. always the Master for this Major Release)
- Read service space passing as GET parameter ss_name=turtlebotET
	- Conventionally the Service Space automatically created for a connected robot has the same name of the robot
	- Obviously you can use this API only if the robot is currently connected (i.e. the Service Space in created)

After the PM_AGENT is installed on your turtlebot's PC you have only to switch on/off the turtlebot'PC (or just to switch on/off the WiFi connection) and the correct service logic (FIROS on Server side and turtlebot's DRIVER on Robot side) should be started by the PM_MASTER.
Please, also consider that the actual RCM implementation requires about 1 minute to recognize (i.e. to be sure to correctly identify) a Robot connection/disconnection and to do the relative tasks (i.e. creating/deleting the Service Space).

Let we know,
D

Hi,

I've made some tests with a virtual machine. The installation went smoothly (I'd add "chmod +x *.sh" to the guidelines you sent) and it looks like the rcmpd is working, but I cannot get information from the RCM master (RDAPI). The installation script is tellimng me that the RCM Master is in 10.82.99.1 and I've tried 130.206.114.100 also.

We had to change the IP of our CB, the new one is 130.206.122.27 but we'd prefer to use yours.

Thank you very much,
Pepe

Then starts installing rcmplatform: many of these operations need root permission so during the installation will be asked the credentials. At the end of the installation the configuration step starts: follow the instruction on your shell.
