Cannot use rosbash in Robomaker

Question

Hi guys,  
I am following the guide to create my first robotic application on ROS Melodic. I noticed I can't use rosbash tools like roscd and rosls right off the bat. Why is that?  
Thank you

Answer

I'm sorry you're having issues. Can you tell me more information? Are you running in the Cloud9 IDE? Did you source the setup file for Melodic like this: source /opt/ros/melodic/setup.bash  
  
If you have done that, can you please point me to the documentation steps you completed and where you are stuck?

Answer

You're right. Sourcing the setup.bash was all that was needed. Thank you!  
I created a new development environment with ROS Melodic as the ROS version and everything else as defaults. What confused me earlier was that the bashrc was sourcing the setup file in /opt/ros/melodic. It sourced setup.sh which doesn't work for some reason. I changed it to setup.bash and that did the trick. Now I don't have to manually source it.  
Thanks again!
