Use of MAPPDK Logger #27

Open qboticslabs opened 1 year ago

qboticslabs commented 1 year ago

Hello

Can we omit the mappdk_logger and start only with mappdk_server to interact with the robot? Can you explain what will be the after-effects if we are not using the logger?

Also, any methods to start and stop the running mappdk_server after some time in the TP code?

@qboticslabs you can do that. The only reason mappdk_logger exist is for simultaneously running robot commands and logging data. For example, if you want to perform some robotic movement motions and at the same time log the data, then you need mappdk_logger. In essence, mappdk_logger is just a copy of mappdk_server which listens on a different port.
