Is there a way to set the log level for a node in a launch file?

I would find this practical.

Cheers, Gaël

Self answer: http://wiki.ros.org/rosconsole#Config...

The feature is not launch-file specific and works by setting an environment variable to a configuration file.

Actually, my own answer seems to work only for roscpp node.

Combining calling rosservice in launch file and setting log level with rosservice, the launch-file specific way would be the following

<node pkg="rosservice" type="rosservice" name="set_move_base_log_level" args="call --wait /move_base/set_logger_level 'ros.move_base' 'debug'" />

I wouldn't be surprised if there's a proper launch file specific way of doing this... if someone knows, please enlighten us!

Sometimes a rosnode cleanup is required prior to the launch that contains this, otherwise the --wait results in this (at least in noetic)

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/ros/noetic/lib/python3/dist-packages/rospy/impl/tcpros_service.py", line 152, in wait_for_service
    uri = contact_service(resolved_name)
  File "/opt/ros/noetic/lib/python3/dist-packages/rospy/impl/tcpros_service.py", line 113, in contact_service
    s.connect(addr)
ConnectionRefusedError: [Errno 111] Connection refused

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
...
  File "/opt/ros/noetic/lib/python3/dist-packages/rospy/rostime.py", line 190, in get_rostime
    raise rospy.exceptions.ROSInitException("time is not initialized. Have you called init_node()?")
rospy.exceptions.ROSInitException: time is not initialized. Have you called init_node()?

Well I just tried it in kinetik like this:

<group if="$(arg use_DEBUG_OUTPUT)" >
         <node pkg="rosservice" type="rosservice" name="set_logger_level" args="call /tf_mapping_node/set_logger_level '{logger: 'rosout', level: 'ERROR'}'"/>
</group>

But it somehow failes for me....

Please don't answer a question just saying it doesn't work. Moreover the previous answer isn't even related to yours.

You would have more chances of being answered by asking a new question since the original question is very old.
