Additional Dependencies

This repo currently requires a few packages to be built from source in order to build the swift versions. Also using forked versions of sensor_msgs and test_msgs since currently linker language is problematic when using tests.

Dependencies are in the repos file and easily installable with vcs:

curl -sk https://raw.githubusercontent.com/atyshka/ros2_swift/master/ros2_swift.repos -o ros2_swift.repos
vcs import ~/ros2/src/ < rclswift.repos

Choose the source directory of your colcon workspace, in my case ros2/src

Build

~$ colcon build --cmake-args " -GNinja" --event-handlers console_direct+
