roslibdart

The is a fork of the original roslib by Eternali Conrad Heidebrecht (@Eternali), Artur Rymarz (@artrmz), TimWhiting Tim Whiting (@TimWhiting). roslibdart is a library for communicating to a ROS node over websockets with rosbridge. It is heavily influenced by roslibjs and follows the same structure. This fork is an effort to update the library and make it compatible to null safety, dart2 and ros2.

List of feature implementation statuses (essentially a list of features required to reach roslibjs's level)

Core:
- ROS connection object
- Topic object (subscribe, unsubscribe, publish, advertise, unadvertise)
- Service object (call, advertise, unadvertise)
- Request object (provides typing and naming to any potential ROS request)
- Param object (get, set, delete)
