Combine Subscriber and Publisher in Python, ROS

This article will describe an example of Combining Subscriber and Publisher in Python in ROS programming.

This is very useful in ROS development.

We will also discuss briefly how to build and modify a catkin package which is written by Python.

• Create a catkin package with the command: catkin_create_pkg, under the path: ~/catkin_ws/src
• Build it with the command: catkin_make, under the path: ~/catkin_ws/
• Source the catkin setup file under devel folder:
  

  $ source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

• modify the Python scripts file under the path: ~/catkin_ws/src//scripts/nodexxx.py
• chmod +x nodexxx.py
• Run this package by Command:  rosrun package_name nodexxx.py
• Modify the CMakefile.txt for Python: Writing a ROS Python Makefile

#!/usr/bin/env python

""" odom_ekf.py - Version 0.1 2012-07-08
    Republish the /robot_pose_ekf/odom_combined topic which is of type 
    geometry_msgs/PoseWithCovarianceStamped as an equivalent message of
    type nav_msgs/Odometry so we can view it in RViz.

import roslib; roslib.load_manifest('rbx1_nav')
import rospy
from geometry_msgs.msg import PoseWithCovarianceStamped
from nav_msgs.msg import Odometry

class OdomEKF():
    def __init__(self):
        # Give the node a name
        rospy.init_node('odom_ekf', anonymous=False)

        # Publisher of type nav_msgs/Odometry
        self.ekf_pub = rospy.Publisher('output', Odometry)
        
        # Wait for the /odom topic to become available
        rospy.wait_for_message('input', PoseWithCovarianceStamped)
        
        # Subscribe to the /robot_pose_ekf/odom_combined topic
        rospy.Subscriber('input', PoseWithCovarianceStamped, self.pub_ekf_odom)
        
        rospy.loginfo("Publishing combined odometry on /odom_ekf")
        
    def pub_ekf_odom(self, msg):
        odom = Odometry()
        odom.header = msg.header
        odom.child_frame_id = 'base_footprint'
        odom.pose = msg.pose
        
        self.ekf_pub.publish(odom)

    try:
        OdomEKF()
        rospy.spin()
    except:
        pass
        

This program above is for Transfer a PoseWithCovarianceStamped typed topic "input" into Odometry typed topic which is named "output".
We can learn how to initialize a node, declare a publisher, subscriber and how to use wait_for_message() function. The callback function pub_ekf_odom is called when input has data, and we can see how this function works to convert the data from PoseWithCovarianceStamped into Odometry.
