static_transform_publisher in ROS2 launch file

edit

I just can't get a static transform publisher to launch from a launch.py file... This is the code:

from launch import LaunchDescription
from launch_ros.actions import Node

def generate_launch_description():

    ld = LaunchDescription()

    node = Node(package = "tf2_ros", 
                       executable = "static_transform_publisher",
                       arguments = ["0 0 0 0 0 0 odom laser"])

    ld.add_action(node)

    return ld

This should be pretty straightforward, but the launch fails with:

[INFO] [launch]: Default logging verbosity is set to INFO
[INFO] [static_transform_publisher-1]: process started with pid [43278]
[static_transform_publisher-1] [ERROR] [1614263713.282074840] []: static_transform_publisher exited due to not having the right number of arguments
[ERROR] [static_transform_publisher-1]: process has died [pid 43278, exit code 2, cmd '/opt/ros/foxy/lib/tf2_ros/static_transform_publisher 0 0 0 0 0 0 odom laser --ros-args'].

I've tried everything that I could think of, but just can't get it to work.

Things that I've tried:

• passing arguments as arguments = ["0 0 0 0 0 0 odom laser".split(' ')])
• passing arguments as arguments = [("0 0 0 0 0 0 odom laser")])
• passing arguments as parameters= ...
• running the command from error output ( /opt/ros/foxy/lib/tf2_ros/static_transform_publisher 0 0 0 0 0 0 odom laser --ros-args ) from the terminal -> that works just fine .

update - solved

arguments = ["0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "odom", "laser"]

or

arguments = "0 0 0 0 0 0 odom laser".split(' ')

works just fine
