Colcon extension for linting ROS package dependencies.
This package is an extension of colcon-core. Similar to catkin-lint in ROS, it checks whether the dependencies of ROS2 packages are correctly described in the package.xml.
To use this extension, please execute the following:
sudo apt install apt-rdepends
pip install colcon-lintPlease execute as follows. The package specification option is the same as other colcon commands.
colcon lint --packages-select <package-name>Replace <package-name> with the name of the package you want to check.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| package specification options | The same as other colcon commands. |
| logging options | The same as other colcon commands. |
--quick |
This option only checks for directly declared dependencies in the package.xml. It cannot detect dependencies that are resolved through recursively declared packages. |
To run faster, you can build with the -Wno-dev --trace-expand --trace-redirect=trace.log cmake option.
colcon build --cmake-args -Wno-dev --trace-expand --trace-redirect=trace.log
