What is the terminal command to convert a ros message file to an idl file?
The rosidl_adapter
core package exposes both scripts and an API to perform these conversions. For your case, use the msg2idl.py
script:
ros2 run rosidl_adapter msg2idl.py /path/to/msg/file
I'm not sure there is a terminal command, however, on build ROS will actually do this for you since its one of the first steps in the message compilation process. Build and install your ROS2 message package and you can find the generated .idl files alongside the original .msg files at
install/<my msgs package>/share/<my msgs package>/msg/<my msg>.idl
