Hi guys,

is there a way to retrieve a list of all running nodes from within a node (rospy preferably)? I've already taken a look at rosgraph.masterapi. It seems appropriate but pretty complex. Is there an easier way than to dismantle the getSystemState call result?

Thanks a lot!

Cheers, Hendrik

import rosnode
rosnode.get_node_names()

More detail in the rosnode API reference.
