Working with ROS services

In this section, we are going to create ROS nodes, which can use the services definition that we defined already. The service nodes we are going to create can send a string message as a request to the server and the server node will send another message as a response.

Navigate to mastering_ros_demo_pkg/src, and find nodes with the names demo_service_server.cpp and demo_service_client.cpp.

The demo_service_server.cpp is the server, and its definition is as follows:

#include "ros/ros.h" 
#include "mastering_ros_demo_pkg/demo_srv.h" 
#include <iostream> 
#include <sstream> 
using namespace std; 
 
bool demo_service_callback(mastering_ros_demo_pkg::demo_srv::Request &req, 
     mastering_ros_demo_pkg::demo_srv::Response &res) { 
 std::stringstream ss; 
 ss << "Received Here"; 
 res.out = ss.str(); 
 ROS_INFO("From Client [%s], Server says [%s]",req.in.c_str(),res.out.c_str()); 
 return true; 
} 
 
int main(int argc, char **argv) 
{ 
 ros::init...
