rosbag_fancy is a fancy terminal UI frontend for the venerable rosbag
tool.
At the moment, the record command is rosbag_fancy's main feature.
It offers the following advantages over plain rosbag record:
- Live display of statistics per topic, such as number of messages, bandwidth, dropped messages, etc. Never notice after recording that you misspelled a topic name!
- Bash completion for topic names
- Optional per-topic rate limiting
rosbag_fancy also offers an info command similar to rosbag info, which
has the same features but is much faster.
Using rosbag_fancy play <bagfile> you can play bag files interactively.
Similar to info, this is much faster than plain rosbag.
As an additional feature, rosbag_fancy play aggregates the tf_static
topic over time, so no matter how many tf publishers were active or how
much you seek in the file, the static transforms will be kept up-to-date.
