Rosbags

Rosbags is the pure python library for everything rosbag. It contains:

  • highlevel easy-to-use interfaces,

  • rosbag2 reader and writer,

  • rosbag1 reader and writer,

  • extensible type system with serializers and deserializers,

  • efficient converter between rosbag1 and rosbag2,

  • and more.

Rosbags does not have any dependencies on the ROS software stacks and can be used on its own or alongside ROS1 or ROS2.

Rosbags was developed for MARV, which requires a fast, correct, and flexible library to read, manipulate, and write the various rosbag file formats.

Getting started

Rosbags is published on PyPI and does not have any special dependencies. Simply install with pip:

pip install rosbags

Read and deserialize messages from rosbag1 or rosbag2 files:

from pathlib import Path

from rosbags.highlevel import AnyReader
from rosbags.typesys import Stores, get_typestore

bagpath = Path('/home/ros/rosbag_2020_03_24')

# Create a type store to use if the bag has no message definitions.
typestore = get_typestore(Stores.ROS2_FOXY)

# Create reader instance and open for reading.
with AnyReader([bagpath], default_typestore=typestore) as reader:
    connections = [x for x in reader.connections if x.topic == '/imu_raw/Imu']
    for connection, timestamp, rawdata in reader.messages(connections=connections):
         msg = reader.deserialize(rawdata, connection.msgtype)
         print(msg.header.frame_id)

Convert between rosbag versions:

# Convert "foo.bag", result will be "foo/"
rosbags-convert foo.bag

# Convert "bar", result will be "bar.bag"
rosbags-convert bar

# Convert "foo.bag", save the result as "bar"
rosbags-convert foo.bag --dst /path/to/bar

# Convert "bar", save the result as "foo.bag"
rosbags-convert bar --dst /path/to/foo.bag
