Update command gui namespaces #121

Closed bsaund closed 3 years ago

bsaund commented 3 years ago

The arm command gui needed to be updated with the new "victor/" prefix.

1) Is there a better way to namespace these functions, given we will be launching via rosrun victor_hardware_interface arm_command_gui.py? I'm looking for setting the namespace in the rospy.init or similar.

2) There are probably other files that should be updated accordingly, but I have not searched.

You can set the namespace via the encouragement variable ROS_NAMESPACE but I don't think rospy init has an argument for that. Tbh I think doing it manually is the right way because not every topic in a node should be remapped.
