Hi all! I saw an issue that I wanted to tackle as a new contributor. Wanted to gauge interest/see if if anyone had any thoughts on the solution.
I think a --help flag for --ros-args would be useful for both new and experienced ros developers. I’ve wanted this feature in the past and as someone who teaches ros, I think it would be really beneficial for new devs.
I’d like to make an addition to rcl that exposes a help flag in the API. This would be processed by rclpy and rclcpp to display the help text and terminate. I made another issue on rclpy #1587 but didn’t want to spam the same issue on rclcpp.
