How can I add a new group analyzer as a plugin?
HI,
I am developing a plugin for diagnostic_aggregator. This will be a replacement for the existing AnalyzerGroup, but with different behavior.
However, my group plugin does not hierarchize correctly because AnalyzerGroup only recognizes diagnostic_aggregator/AnalyzerGroup as a group in the following line.
https://github.com/ros/diagnostics/blob/ros2-devel/diagnostic_aggregator/src/analyzer_group.cpp#L148
Since the root AnalyzerGroup is hard-coded diagnostic_aggregator/AnalyzerGroup, I have no way to avoid this.
Once the group plugins are working correctly, users will be free to create their own plugins. This would be great!
I think it will only take a few changes to fix this problem. I would be happy to help.
