Updating the Packages

Make sure python command point to python3 and not python2.

Tag

Make sure that every branch version is up to date, the changelogs date are set, and create a tag corresponding to the version (specified in the package.xml files, make also sure the version in these files is up to date):

git tag -a 1.0.0 -m "Version 1.0.0"
git push origin 1.0.0

Bloom Release

Use pip3 install bloom to install bloom.

Launch bloom release to update the content of the webots_ros2-release repo. Here is an example for Foxy but the same procedure is valid for other versions of ROS (e.g. Eloquent), we ask for the webots_ros2 package because this is the root package.

bloom-release --rosdistro foxy --track foxy webots_ros2 --edit
