[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [General] ROS2: Cannot run m…

I am trying to build my python package in ROS2. I have copied the code from [minimal_publisher](https://github.com/ros2/examples/tree/master/rclpy/topics/minimal_publisher) example and just changed some names. After building and trying to run it I get: ```No executable found```.

I am building using ```src/ament/ament_tools/scripts/ament.py build --symlink-install --only-package rtcm_publisher```
and running ```source ~/ros2_ws/install/local_setup.bash``` after build.

What am I doing wrong?

My code here:

setup.py
```from setuptools import setup

package_name = 'rtcm_publisher'

setup(
    name=package_name,
    version='0.4.0',
    packages=[],
    py_modules=[
        'rtcm_publisher_old'],
    data_files=[
        ('share/ament_index/resource_index/packages',
            ['resource/' + package_name]),
        ('share/' + package_name, ['package.xml']),
    ],
    install_requires=['setuptools'],
