Loading .nmprofile configuration into node_manager GUI #179

Closed jakebonney10 closed 1 year ago

jakebonney10 commented 2 years ago

I'm having trouble loading the node manager profile that I stored from the launch dock. Its currently saved to my desktop. I haven't been able to find any support on this in the wiki/manual. Is there an easy way to do this from the node_manager gui?

In an ideal world I envision running node_manager with its profile specified from a launch file, similar to how an rviz config can be specified using args. Is there functionality to do this?

sorry for long delay!

nmprofile stores running multimaster nodes, loaded launch files and running nodes. So you can restore the running state by loading the file from launch dock or with start of node_manager by node_manager -f name.nmprofile.

This feature is experimental and was not tested for long time :-/ I fixed now some issues with loading the nmprofiles.
