Unable to Launch rostful #163

Open arwinder-jaspal opened 5 years ago

arwinder-jaspal commented 5 years ago

$ roslaunch rostful rostful.launch [rostful.launch] is neither a launch file in package [rostful] nor is [rostful] a launch file name The traceback for the exception was written to the log file

I dont see the launc folder or the launch files for rostful. Did i miss something out?

This is a python package. It should be launched as any python package : python -m rostful.

That being said, this is not "a simple ros node". It s a web rest framework(multiprocesses) that happens to interface with ROS using pyros. But mostly, it is a python rest backend.

If you havent use a python web framework yet, I advise you get familiar with one first. FWIW I'm using flask in rostful.

Thank you.

I will look into this. Sorry I am kind of new to this.

Hi, In case it might help, I have updated a rostful usecase with turtlesim : https://github.com/asmodehn/rostful-examples/pull/6 Let me know if you find it useful. Thanks.
