The extension point for interface definition translation.

The following methods must be defined: * translate

translate(package_name, interface_files, include_paths, output_path)

Translate interface definition files.

The path to an interface definition file is a relative path optionally prefixed by an absolute path followed by a colon ‘:’, in which case path resolution is to be performed against that absolute path.

On output, the directory structure specified by this relative path will be replicated e.g. an msg/Empty.foo file will result in a msg/Empty.bar file under output_path.

Parameters:
  • package_name – name of the package interface_file belongs to

  • interface_files – list of paths to interface definition files

  • include_paths – list of paths to include dependency interface definition files from

  • output_path – path to directory to hold translated interface definition files

Returns:

list of paths to translated interface definition files

rosidl_cli.command.translate.extensions.load_translate_extensions(**kwargs)
