[Feature request] Support for Dynamic Reconfigure #92

Open chenjunnn opened 2 years ago

It would be really helpful if rosboard support dynamic reconfigure as the GUI tool rqt_reconfigure in ROS.

Hi @chenjun00 Thanks for the suggestion! I'll look into whether there's a good way to support dynamic reconfigure in both ROS1 and ROS2.

What specifically were you hoping to dynamically reconfigure? e.g. configure properties on other nodes or reconfigure e.g. rosboard's port on the fly?

I'm looking into a way to dynamic reconfigure some params of the nodes in my robots on a web page. (Such as the exposure time of a camera node.)

And I've found some projects useful, but they only support ROS1 and haven't been updated for a long time.

Here is what I found: https://github.com/awesomebytes/web_dyn_reconf https://github.com/pantor/ros-control-center

And the source code rqt_reconfigure might be helpful too as it supports both ROS 1 & 2 and is written in Python.
