# Docker-Image-for-ROS-Noetic-with-Kinect-GUI

This Docker image is tailored for running ROS1 Noetic with support for GUI applications and the Xbox 360 Kinect Depth Camera. It includes tools such as RViz, Gazebo, and the ability to view the Kinect's depth camera feed using RViz.

## Usage

#### Build the Docker Image

```bash

 docker build -t noetic_working -f Dockerfile-ros-noetic .

```

#### Run the Docker Container

```bash

 docker run -it --name noetic-container --user vipul --ipc=host --privileged -v /dev:/dev -v /sys:/sys -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:rw --env=DISPLAY noetic_working

```

> Change vipul with --> your_user_name

#### To Start an exited Docker container 

```bash

docker start -ai noetic-container

```

#### To access another Docker Container Shell

```bash

docker exec -it noetic-container /bin/bash

```




## Some Common Problems & their Solutions:

#### 1. bash: rviz: command not found

  This error occurs when bash cannot find RViz. To solve this, source the underlay:

  ```bash

   source /opt/ros/noetic/setup.bash

  ```

 #### 2. catkin_make Permission Denied

  This occurs as non-root doesn't have access to our workspace

  To give access to non-root users, enter the following command

  ```bash

   sudo chown -R vipul:vipul /home/vipul/catkin_ws

  ```

  >  Change vipul with --> your_user_name

  

 #### 3. RLException: [freenect.launch] is neither a launch file in package [freenect_launch] nor is [freenect_launch] a launch file name. The traceback for the exception was written to the log file

	

  Source the catkin workspace setup file:

  

  ``` bash

  source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

  ```

  Note: This works only if the non-root user has access to the catkin workspace.

#### 4. Error building freenect_stack - Resource not found: rgbd_launch

  

  > Resource not found: rgbd_launch 


	  ROS path [0]=/opt/ros/noetic/share/ros 


	  ROS path [1]=/home/inaciose/catkin_ws/src 


	  ROS path [2]=/opt/ros/noetic/share 


	  The traceback for the exception was written to the log file 


  ```bash

   sudo apt-get install ros-noetic-rgbd-launch

  ```

#### 5: If the packages are not found, update the package list:

  ```bash

   sudo apt-get update

  ```
