Rosbag Cloud Recorders

This package contains nodes that facilitate the recording of rosbag files. The rolling_recorder node provides an action interface for uploading the past x minutes of rosbag files. The duration_recorder node provides an action interface to record rosbags for a specified duration. Once that duration is complete the rosbag files are uploaded to S3. For more information on actions see the actionlib documentation. Examples for using the action servers can be found below. The action servers can only take one request at a time. If the node is currently working on a request it will reject any new requests.

AWS Credentials

You will need to create an AWS Account and configure the credentials to be able to communicate with AWS services. You may find AWS Configuration and Credential Files helpful.

This node will require the following AWS account IAM role permissions:

  • s3:PutObject for the bucket specified in the config file.

Usage

Resource Setup

Running the nodes

  • Build the rosbag_cloud_recorders package as described in the top level README.
  • Configure AWS credentials.
  • Launch the duration_recorder and s3_file_uploader nodes with

      roslaunch rosbag_cloud_recorders duration_recorder_sample.launch s3_bucket:=<BUCKET_NAME>
    
  • OR Launch the rolling_recorder and s3_file_uploader nodes with

      roslaunch rosbag_cloud_recorders rolling_recorder_sample.launch s3_bucket:=<BUCKET_NAME>
    

More details on launch parameters below.

Example Action Client

A simple example of an action client to interact with this node is provided. After sourcing the ROS workspace, the example client can be run with python examples/recorder_client.py <node_type>, where <node_type> can be rolling_recorder or duration_recorder.

duration_recorder node

Launch and Configuration File Parameters

Name Type Description Default Value
min_free_disk_space int The minimum amount of free disk space in MiB (the current action goal will be aborted when the free disk space falls below this amount) 1024
write_directory string The local directory where rosbags will be recorded (please make sure it is a writeable directory) ~/.ros/dr_rosbag_uploader/
upload_timeout int The time in seconds to wait for upload to complete 3600
delete_bags_after_upload bool Whether or not the bag files should be deleted after they have been successfully uploaded false
