I recently started to work exhaustively with rosbag. Also started with extracting videos out of it and also start writing my own tools for timestamp manipulation (which was a nice exercise btw). But then I found that there already exist tools for all these task. Before I start writing more tools for bag operations, I'd like to ask what other repositories/packages/tools exist.

Edit: I put the (hopefully ever-growing list) into an answer, so that this question gets more attention Please send more suggestions!

This post on ros discourse last week for "Qt rosbag exporter", which is a Qt based GUI for working with bag files.

Just awesome! Thanks for the hint! I'll put it in the list.

In a totally different technology (web based), there is https://marvhub.com and https://github.com/ternaris/marv-robo... who works on bag files for displaying informations on the web (the best example i found : https://marvhub.com/#/detail/q4mwxc3e... )

@Imathieu This is just mindblowing. Never thought of such possibilities! I will directly integrate this into my work! Thanks for this awesome tip.

@tik0 if you are looking to manipulate/log simple text-based data, here's a little something I wrote: https://gist.github.com/PrieureDeSion...

It may be of use for quick processing and extraction.

Found another toolset from this post, which is able to trim and merge bag files: https://answers.ros.org/question/1068...

So the hopefully ever-growing list to work with bag files is as follows:

Edit

  1. Added Matlab solutions
  2. Add toolset for trimming and merging bag files
  3. Add Rosbag Editor
  4. Add rosbag_fixer
  5. Add bag export

As I found myself working more and more with rosbag files this is very useful, is there a place where we should put this list on the wiki?

Also thought about that. But do you have anything in mind? From my point of view the ROS wiki might not be optimal, since this topic is very generic.

Could add gavanderhoorn/rosbag_fixer:

Replaces incomplete msg defs with the correct ones in bags with topics published by rosjava

Works around rosjava/rosjava_bootstrap#16.

Would be better to have an actual fix committed, but that would depend on someone picking that issue up and actually solving it.
