Description

Hi,

I'm not very skilled using python (or DDS for that matter) but I have managed to get cyclonedds to run on my machine and it will (using ls and ps) "see" the other dds application that is running in my test environment. I'm not sure I can do what I'm about to describe but here goes...

I want to know if it is possible to get cyclonedds to write it's discovery information to a file? (either json or xml or text)

Then I would like to be able to use cyclonedds to publish on a particular topic using that same discovery information (QoS in particular). Is this possible?

Thanks for any help.

Research direction

Start with the cyclonedds-python discovery and publishing APIs and their documentation; the issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Determine whether discovery information can be exported and whether it can provide QoS for publishing on a topic. Done would be a documented capability answer or a clearly scoped implementation proposal.
