Example for a custom service
mschuckmann opened this issue · 2 comments
Sorry if this is something that should be obvious to an experienced ROS developer but how would one go about creating a custom service, the existing example uses a predefined service from ROS examples
The readme discusses auto generation of bindings and msg but it's unclear to me what the process is.
I think I figured this out, I just need to go through the steps of creating a package with a custom service using the ros2 tools, when I sourced the workspace environment my service messages were created and then so long as I ran cargo build from that environment the service types are available. This tutorial was very helpful

Yes you got it. Additionally your can take a look at this repo for an example https://github.com/m-dahl/r2r_minimal_node/ if you want to use colcon also for the rust stuff.
