Enable Regex topic selection or rejection

Open andrewbest-tri opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Description

Deciding which topics to bag could be improved by allowing a regex for topic subscription and rejection. In this way, we could prefix topics we definitely do not want to log, e.g. ros bag record --exlucude /nolog/*, or subscribe to entire device feeds without struggling to capture all possible topics, e.g. ros bag record /imu/*

This would enable us to expose additional topics from devices and experiment processes without having to modify the bagger constantly.

Related Issues

Relates to #970 , the mix of period discovery and regex rejection would be a powerful combination of features.
