This patch adds support for type description generation in
rosidl_cli
. It introduces a new hash command to generate type descriptions. It also ensures they are always present as part of thegenerate
command even if the user doesn't provide them.Addresses #808
Recommended Review Order
I recommend starting with the new
hash
generator inrosidl_cli/rosidl_cli/command/hash
, which utilizes the extension defined inrosidl_generator_type_description/rosidl_generator_type_description/cli.py
, and then progressing to the other changes.Notes
