# RQT Wrapper

## Overview

Wrap an rqt plugin so that it automagically goes down and comes up as a ROS master

at the other end goes down and comes back up again. This solves the frustration of

having to restart all of your rqt applications on your laptop/pc every time you

teardown the robot and relaunch it again. Incidentally it will save time and effort as well.

**WRQT Reconfigure - With ROS Core**

**WRQT Reconfigure - Absent ROS Core**

The source code is released under a [BSD 3-Clause license](LICENSE).

## Status

Beta. Areas to be addressed:

* Desktop notifications instead of a dialog while ros is down, #4.

* Reflect all of the arguments that rqt programs usually let you handle, #5.

## Usage

Just two lines. This example wraps the `rqt_reconfigure` plugin:

```python

import rqt_wrapper

import sys

if __name__ == '__main__':

    rqt_wrapper = rqt_wrapper.RQTWrapper('rqt_reconfigure.param_plugin.ParamPlugin')

    sys.exit(rqt_wrapper.exec_())

```

## Programs

Some of the common rqt programs are recreated here with the `wrqt_xxx` prefix and

deposited into the global bin directory.

* `wrqt_graph`

* `wrqt_reconfigure`

* `wrqt_robot_monitor`
