i cant seem to do:
pause_physics_client=rospy.ServiceProxy('/gazebo/pause_physics',PausePhysics)
there doesn't seem to be a PausePhysics.srv anywhere under gazebo_msgs/srv
I can see that the service is running in rosservice list, and I'm using groovy.
What should I be doing instead? All I want is a way to toggle physics inside my code.
gazebo/pause_physics is an Empty service (no inputs or output arguments), so doesn't need its own service definition. See this section from the wiki page:
~/pause_physics (std_srvs/Empty)
Pause physics updates.
~/unpause_physics (std_srvs/Empty)
Resume physics updates.
Try this and see if it works:
from std_srvs.srv import Empty
pause_physics_client=rospy.ServiceProxy('/gazebo/pause_physics',Empty)
If you need it, gazebo/unpause_physics is also an Empty service.
from std_srvs.srv import Empty, EmptyRequest
pause_physics_client=rospy.ServiceProxy('/gazebo/pause_physics',Empty)
pause_physics_client(EmptyRequest())
