PX4模块设计之三:自定义uORB消息

基于PX4开源软件框架简明简介PX4模块设计之二:uORB消息代理, 了解了更多关于中间件uORB消息代理作为PX4系统内部消息传递的重要性。

关于新增消息或者消息主题,可以分为PX4代码库内部新增(通常是PX4开源组织在进行维护)和外部新增两种方式。

这里自定义uORB消息主要侧重的是外部新增主题消息,后续将会结合一个示例进行相关应用的Demo。

1. 新增自定义uORB消息步骤

  1. 新增与PX4-Autopilot平行目录PX4-ExternalModule;
  2. 建立PX4-ExternalModule下相应的msg、src目录;
  3. 在PX4-ExternalModule的msg目录下新建.msg文件,参考PX4-Autopilot下msg目录下的相关文件;
1 uint64 timestamp	# time since system start (microseconds)
2 int8 hello          # index of hello variable
3 
4 # TOPICS ext_hello_world
  1. 在PX4-ExternalModule的msg目录下新建CMakeLists.txt文件;
  2. 在CMakeList.txt文件中添加.msg文件;
34 set(config_msg_list_external
35    ext_hello_world.msg
36    PARENT_SCOPE
37    )
  1. 在make的时候,框架代码会自动根据上述源文件生成对应的两个C/C++文件;
PX4-Autopilot\\build\\px4_sitl_default\\uORB\\topics\\ext_hello_world.h
PX4-Autopilot\\build\\px4_sitl_default\\msg\\topics_sources\\ext_hello_world.cpp

注:自此已经完成新增自定义uORB消息ext_hello_world。

2. 应用ext_hello_world消息示例

定义消息的目的主要是为了不同的任务之间进行通信,这里写了一个Demo:两个任务,一个任务publish消息,一个任务subscribe消息;

  1. 在Demo代码里面包含头文件;
#include <uORB/topics/ext_hello_world.h>
  1. 使用ORB_ID(ext_hello_world)唯一定位消息主题;
  2. 使用px4_task_spawn_cmd函数建立两个任务;
  3. 使用uORB消息处理接口函数Demo应用;

3. 编译执行结果

基于SITL仿真环境,在PX4-Autopilot目录下,进行编译;

$ make px4_sitl EXTERNAL_MODULES_LOCATION=../PX4-ExternalModule/

然后,执行仿真环境;

$ make px4_sitl jmavsim

最后,测试下效果。
