Description-en: Command-line tool for displaying debug information about Robot OS Topics
This package is part of Robot OS (ROS). This tool helps debugging by
showing debug information about ROS Topics, including publishers,
subscribers, publishing rate, and ROS Messages. It also contains an
experimental Python library for getting information about, and
interacting with, topics dynamically. This library is for internal use
only as the code API may change, though it does provide examples of
how to implement dynamic subscription and publication behaviors in
ROS.
