Building ROS node with OpenCV

[sarahl]

I had some additional issues with build dependencies, so now I'm trying to build a docker that's a combination of the opencv-opencl one and the roskinetic one. However, I'm now running out of space on the overlays while building the opencv portion:

symlink ../../Asia/Katmandu /data/overlay/0539659d5706b44f5832c3d53925cfe2647594de8f18b5708435028ddfdd630e/tmproot772012770/usr/share/zoneinfo/posix/Asia/Kathmandu: no space left on device

However, running df -H, it doesn't appear to be out of space.

Do you know what might be causing this and how I can get around it? I have a 32 GB micro-sd card, is it possible to use that instead of /data?

You can actually build an ARM docker on your Linux desktop. The build process uses tons of space, so tough to say exactly what you're running in to. But, you can definitely try offline and then load it on target. (it will build MUCH faster too!)

[sarahl]

@Chad-Sweet oh thanks! I'll try that you! I actually want to try to use Ubuntu 18.04 / ROS melodic to be more aligned with our other systems. Do you know if the modalai opencl deb would still be compatible?

Also, it seems aarch64 is deprecated: https://hub.docker.com/r/aarch64/ubuntu
for this: https://hub.docker.com/r/arm64v8/ubuntu

For the base docker image, would it be correct to just change:
FROM aarch64/ubuntu:xenial
to:
FROM arm64v8/ubuntu:bionic

(Apologies for all the questions, it's actually my first time building a docker image from scratch.)

[Chad Sweet]

All of those seem likely to work, though we haven't tried them so there could be some debugging required.

[sarahl]

is there something specific I need to enable in docker (on the amd64 machine side) to be able to build the arm64 docker images? I'm getting this error:

scripts/build-docker.sh 4.2.0

[sarahl]

@Chad-Sweet any advice on the above message? it doesn't seem to like trying to build an arm64 docker image on an amd64 ubuntu machine.

@sarahl ,

I've been messing with another project in a similar area, this link helped:

GitHub - multiarch/qemu-user-static: :earth_africa: `/usr/bin/qemu-*-static`

:earth_africa: `/usr/bin/qemu-*-static`. Contribute to multiarch/qemu-user-static development by creating an account on GitHub.

GitHub (github.com)

Namely, needing to run this 'magic command' before running my arm64 docker on x86 host (to be honest I'm not fully sure what it's doing)

docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static --reset -p yes

Another thing that's helped is adding this to my docker file:

# required for ARM emulation
COPY ./bin/qemu-arm-static /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static

Where in my project, I've copied qemu-arm-static into a bin dir in my repo.

Hope this helps!

Hi @modaltb ,

As I had also storage problems like posted here, I wanted to go with the way suggested by @Chad-Sweet. I am doing the same kind of project. Merging two Docker files(Ros Kinetic and Open CV).

I am building the images in Raspi aarch64 Ubuntu 20.04.2.
I was able to build ROS Kinetic image without Open CV and send to VOXL m500 to load and run.

However, when I merged two files and built I got the following error but am not sure if it is the same error with @sarahl and qemu-arm-static will help me.

What might be the problem or solution?
Thank you in advance,

I pasted the output message and two relevant docker files I merged:
I used all the docker files for ros kinetic and adapted Open CV files into that.

I overcame that problem by adjusting the WORKDIR and PATH. Moreover adding sudo apt-update.

However, I always come back to the same problem no matter what i do.
I decided to build in my host computer and load in target to head off "No Space Problem" in the target but the problem also occurred in the host as well. I cannot proceed any how.

Any suggestions from your side?

Could you @sarahl solve your issue?

[modaltb]

Hi @Voxlady ,

I'm scratching my head on this one, I don't have anything helpful yet but will keep an eye out!

[sarahl]

@modaltb thanks so much! I was actually wondering if I needed something like buildx for the multi-arch building, but I couldn't get it to work with the Ubuntu version of docker. But this seemed to fix my previous issue, so I'll see how this goes. Just trying the first command for now without the COPY line.

@Voxlady I'll let you know if this fixes my issue. Haven't gotten to the OpenCV portion yet. I don't know what your disk storage constraints are on the raspberry pi, but I'm running on an amd64 Ubuntu 18.04 machine which hopefully will not run into storage issues. I noticed on the Voxl that what was taking up a lot of space was the docker overlays. I wonder if condensing all the dockerfiles into a single one would help (if you don't need all the intermediate images)?

Hi @modaltb and @sarahl ,

Thank you for your messages. It took me some trial-and-error time but I finally solved the problem by reducing the number of Docker Files as well as images. Now, everything seems working again.

BR,
Ayberk

[modaltb]

Thanks for the update. We really appreciate the feedback and community response!

[sarahl]

@modaltb okay it finally built, but when I tried to load it onto the Voxl, it ran out of space. So now I'm trying to build a new version with fewer intermediate images and with opencl removed. Are there any other ways to make more space for docker?

@Voxlady were you able to load your roskinetic+opencv image to the Voxl? Did you use 4.2.0 or 3.4.6 or another opencv version?

[A Former User]

@sarahl,

Yes, I was able to load the image and even download additional packages in the container.

1. I merged two base files from Opencv/cl and kinetic. Moreover, I put everything that's in Dockerfile.opencv into Dockerfile.xenial-packages. So, in the end I didn't have any extra Opencv-cl file. I also disabled Opencl.

2. Most importantly, after I built roskinetic-xenial:v1.0, I deleted other two images base and minimal. I think that's okay to delete since no error or failure has occurred so far.

3. Last, I used some best practices suggested by Docker. Especially, for Dockerfile.xenial-base. See sorting multi-line arguments .

4. I think 3.4.6 version doesn't have a corresponding release in GitHub. So, ARG opencv_version=4.2.0 in Dockerfile.opencv assigns automatically. Therefore, I went with 4.2.0.

Hopefully it helps.
All the best

@modaltb So I finally got the docker loaded, and also built cv_bridge and the camera ros driver. However, it doesn't seem to be reading in the camera (a FLIR). When I'm outside the docker, plugging in the device adds /dev/ttyACM0 and /dev/video2, the latter of which is used by the ros node. Is there something I need to do when running the docker to have access to the usb devices?

[modaltb]

@sarahl , here's an example of how we map and HDMI adapter into docker, not exactly the same but shows the usage:

@modaltb thanks, I actually tried something similar by mapping /dev to /dev, and also passing it in with the --device parameter, but I'll try this out! is there a reason it's mapped as /dev to /opt in here? Should the /dev directory not be used in the docker contained? I did notice when I plugged and unplugged the device and ran ls /dev, that the device list did not update.

[sarahl]

@modaltb actually I think it's working now, and I somehow didn't actually have to map the /dev port. Turns out I just had a typo in my launch file. Thanks again for all the help!

[sarahl]

@modaltb I wanted to send an update, I was able to build and run an Ubuntu 18.04 + ROS Melodic docker + OpenCV 4.2.0 (because some of my nodes weren't working on the ROS Kinetic docker), but did require using multi-line arguments as @Voxlady suggested to reduce the size enough to fit. It seems like the size constraints are somewhere around 2.7 GB virtual docker size, and stem from too many docker overlays. Is there anyway around that in case there is a need for larger docker images?
