I have been looking for ways to get some rust-based code to play nicely with a bunch of python-based ROS 2 code. Given that the last I checked, official ROS2 bindings were not quite working for rust, I thought I might be able to wrap up the rust code (which is really standalone) I had into a single module, and then create bindings for it with PyO3. That way, after building, I could simply import the rust library within python and use ROS 2 at that point.
I created a super-simple test package.
I have gotten it to work when cd-ing into the package and running python3 setup.py bdist_wheel, and it does indeed generate the required .so files, which work correctly from within python.
For ease, here is the setup.py file that does that:
from setuptools import setup
from setuptools_rust import Binding, RustExtension
package_name = 'rust_test'
setup(
name=package_name,
version='0.1.0',
packages=[package_name],
rust_extensions=[RustExtension("rust_test.rust_test", binding=Binding.PyO3)],
data_files=[
('share/ament_index/resource_index/packages',
['resource/' + package_name]),
('share/' + package_name, ['package.xml']),
],
install_requires=['setuptools','wheel','setuptools_rust'],
include_package_data=True,
zip_safe=False,
maintainer='schoen',
maintainer_email='[email protected]',
description='TODO: Package description',
license='TODO: License declaration',
tests_require=['pytest'],
entry_points={
'console_scripts': [
],
},
)
However, when I execute colcon build --symlink-install --packages-select rust_test, it fails with the following error:
Starting >>> rust_test
--- stderr: rust_test

From what I see, without knowing too much about colcon itself, is that the package data object seems to have something unexpected as a result of the additional logic, and it isn't being handled once it is received. Alternatively, I have sometimes noticed similar errors when setuptools extensions create stdout, but I am not sure that this is the same thing.
I wasn't sure if this was an issue I should post in the colcon-python-setup-py repo, but decided to check here first and see if anyone has handled something like this previously.
Thanks!
