[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [General] New Software Release - RQT Wrapper

[Daniel Stonier]

Dear ROS community,

**About**

[RQT Wrapper](https://github.com/stonier/rqt_wrapper) keeps your rqt plugins alive even when the ros master on the other side is going up and down. It does this by providing some python glue to wrap a reqular rqt plugin that monitors the ros master connection and respawns/collapses the rqt plugin as the ros master goes up/down.

This can be useful when developing to save from being exasperated when you find yourself starting/stopping/restarting rviz, robot_monitor, rqt_reconfigure for the umpteen millionth time. It does save a considerable amount of time/effort too.

**Installation**

It's packaged for kinetic:

    sudo apt install ros-kinetic-rqt-wrapper

**Documentation**
