Implementation of movebase ros node to send nav goals #78

Closed KSaikishore closed 3 years ago

KSaikishore commented 3 years ago

How can i send nav goals using roslibpy. I have looked at the below mentioned tutorials but they were mainly relying on move_base_msgs package which isn't available on roslibpy. Is there a way or example on how to send goals to navigation stack using roslibpy.

@KSaikishore once move_base is installed on your ROS setup, it will be available on roslibpy, there's not extra support needed, you just need to call the services, actions, and topics provided by the package and pass a python dictionary that respects the exact same fields as defined in the package and that should work.

I'm closing this issue, because I believe this works already, but please do feel free to keep commenting here if you're facing trouble when trying it out.
