Is there any python support for creating a custom costmap_2d layer?

Hello, I am trying to make my custom costmap_2d layer from pointcloud2 data, which would be marked as free space. I looked at the tutorial, which is in C++. I was wondering if there is any other support in python for the same. It would make it a lot easier in python, I think.

Thank You.

No.

Not in the standard packages.

The navstack uses C++ plugins to host layer plugins. This is not supported by / with Python.

I don't believe anything has changed.

Using boost::python or possible pybind11 (docs) would appear to be the way to do this, if you're still interested.
