Summary What if you could avoid writing nodes from scratch every time you create a package? What if you could just create a new node by defining its interface and then have all the ROS communication primitives automatically created for you, so that you can focus on the core logic of your component? What if you could still update your interface once you have created your node? What if you could even create your own package and node template, so that you could create nodes that exactly fit your needs? Well that´s what the ROS package generator proposes! https://github.com/tecnalia-advancedmanufacturing-robotics/ros_pkg_gen   Extended description The objective of this package is double. On one side, it enables a ROS user, hereafter called Developer, to create a package and its nodes automatically from the definition of the nodes interfaces. On the other side, it enables advanced users or Designers to define package and node templates, based on their expertise, requirements and best practices, so that Developers can reuse these templates to generate new packages and nodes following that model automatically. The available templates are designed to make a clear separation in between (i) the node interface implementation and management (based on ROS communication primitives, […]
