How to shut down a ros node and start another ros node in python
How to shut down a ros node and start another ros node in python? Below is my code, I want to know how should I write the code to achieve my function?
#!/usr/bin/python3
import rospy
from geometry_msgs.msg import Twist
def move():
rospy.init_node('stop_robot', anonymous=True, disable_signals=True)
velocity_publisher = rospy.Publisher(
'/mobile_base/commands/velocity', Twist, queue_size=10)
vel_msg = Twist()
vel_msg.linear.x = 0
vel_msg.linear.y = 0
vel_msg.linear.z = 0
vel_msg.angular.x = 0
vel_msg.angular.y = 0
vel_msg.angular.z = 0
flag = True
while not rospy.is_shutdown():
velocity_publisher.publish(vel_msg)
if flag == True:
"""
**how can I start another node here?
like: rosrun node_pkg node?**
"""
rospy.loginfo("exit()!")
rospy.signal_shutdown("exit()!")
if __name__ == '__main__':
try:
move()
except rospy.ROSInterruptException:
pass
