Does it support custom ROS 2 message types?

Yes, the skill can generate templates for standard packages like sensor_msgs and geometry_msgs, and can be adapted for any message definition accessible through the SDK.

What is the purpose of the create-example skill?

It automates the creation of Python scripts for publishing and subscribing to ROS 2 topics via Zenoh, allowing developers to communicate with ROS 2 systems without a local ROS 2 installation.

Why does the generated code use numpy arrays?

Numpy arrays are used for proper CDR (Common Data Representation) serialization, which is required for compatibility with standard ROS 2 message structures.

How does the file numbering system work?

The skill follows a specific convention where publishers are assigned the next available odd number and subscribers receive the next even number to keep pairs organized.

API Development

Generates standardized Python publisher and subscriber examples for ROS 2 message types using the Zenoh SDK.

About

The create-example skill streamlines the development of ROS 2 communication scripts by providing automated templates for publishers and subscribers. It simplifies the process of integrating specific ROS 2 message types—such as sensor, geometry, or trajectory data—into applications that do not require a full ROS 2 environment. By managing file numbering, message class lookups, and numpy-based CDR serialization patterns, this skill ensures consistent and error-free implementation of Zenoh-based ROS 2 messaging interfaces.
