axcli

A simple actionlib CLI client

How to use

Add this package in your catkin workspace, don’t forget to source your devel/setup.bash after running catkin_make

axcli [--nowait] [--timeout TIMEOUT] [-v] <action namespace> <goal>

Bash should provide TAB-completion of available action servers and their associated goals. By default axcli will wait for the goal to terminate, and pressing Ctrl+c will send a goal cancel request to the action server.

The following optional arguments are available to change axcli’s behavior:

• --nowait don’t wait for result, fire and forget.

• --timeout timeout in seconds used to wait for the action server (default: infinite timeout).

• -v, --verbose verbose output.
