FOROS Inspector

Inspector is a tool for monitoring the status of a FOROS cluster. You can check the active cluster information and the information of the nodes within the cluster.

How to use

1) Setup Environment

. /opt/ros/galactic/setup.bash

If foros is installed in the custom workspace,

. {custom workspace}/install/setup.bash

Only ROS nodes running in the environment where environment variable FOROS_INSPECTOR is set to 1 can be monitored.

export FOROS_INSPECTOR=1

If you want to change monitoring period, (default 1s)

# 500ms
export FOROS_INSPECTOR_PERIOD=0.5
