It provides a bridge between ROS-independent code and ROS logging infrastructure, allowing packages to emit log messages that flow into rosconsole and rosout without requiring a full ROS dependency. The package is distributed through cmeel, a CMake-based wheel builder, and is available as pre-built wheels for multiple platforms and architectures.\n\nThe package depends on cmeel as its runtime dependency and targets modern Python versions (3.8+). It carries a permissive Zlib license and sees moderate adoption (top 15000 on PyPI). Installation involves selecting the appropriate platform-specific wheel automatically; the package maintains active development with recent releases.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building ROS-dependent packages or libraries that need to integrate with ROS logging infrastructure. The permissive license, active maintenance, and broad platform support make it a low-risk choice. However, verify first whether your use case requires ROS integration or if you need console-bridge's logging outside a ROS context."},"id":"cmeel-console-bridge","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/cmeel-console-bridge","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/cmeel-console-bridge.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/cmeel-console-bridge/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-03-19","license_spdx":"Zlib","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"cmeel-console-bridge","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"cmeel distribution for console-bridge, A ROS-independent package for logging that seamlessly pipes into rosconsole/rosout for ROS-dependent packages."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":770977,"position":5102,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.0.2.3"}
