===============

#### Server Implementations of the rosbridge v2 Protocol

rosbridge provides a JSON interface to ROS, allowing any client to send JSON to publish or subscribe to ROS topics, call ROS services, and more. rosbridge supports a variety of transport layers, including WebSockets and TCP. For information on the protocol itself, see the [rosbridge protocol specification](ROSBRIDGE_PROTOCOL.md).

For full documentation, see [the ROS wiki](http://ros.org/wiki/rosbridge_suite).

This project is released as part of the [Robot Web Tools](http://robotwebtools.org/) effort.

### Packages

 * [rosbridge_suite](rosbridge_suite) is a [ROS meta-package](http://www.ros.org/wiki/catkin/conceptual_overview#Metapackages_and_the_Elimination_of_Stacks) including all the rosbridge packages.

 * [rosbridge_library](rosbridge_library) contains the Python API that receives JSON-formatted strings as input and controls ROS publishers/subscribers/service calls according to the content of the JSON strings.

 * [rosbridge_server](rosbridge_server) contains a WebSocket server implementation that exposes the rosbridge_library.

 * [rosapi](rosapi) provides service calls for getting meta-information related to ROS like topic lists as well as interacting with the Parameter Server.

### Clients
