Get apollo-resources directory

Preprocessed files will be stored in a directory called apollo-resources, which should also be located in the documents folder. If you want to use the existing preprocessed robots, you can clone the official apollo-resources repository as described in the first subsection below. Alternatively, you can fork/ add your own robots from scratch as described in the section 2 below.

1. Clone the official apollo-resources

If you would like to use the apollo-resources provided by us, run the following commands from a terminal.

cd ~/documents
git clone <https://github.com/Apollo-Lab-Yale/apollo-resources.git>

2. Create apollo-resources from scratch/add new robot

Step 1: If you would like to build your own apollo-resources folder from scratch, first fork our apollo-resources repository on github, clone your forked version of the repository to your ~/documents folder, then make sure the apollo-resources/robots and apollo-resources/environments folders are empty

Step 2: Next, please follow the instructions in the linked walkthrough to preprocess robots/ environments of your choice.

Step 3: When you push changes now, all of your preprocessed resources will be stored in your own forked version of apollo-resources
