:py:mod:`viam.components.gripper.gripper` ========================================= .. py:module:: viam.components.gripper.gripper Module Contents --------------- Classes ~~~~~~~ .. autoapisummary:: viam.components.gripper.gripper.Gripper .. py:class:: Gripper(name: str) Bases: :py:obj:`viam.components.component_base.ComponentBase` Gripper represents a physical robotic gripper. This acts as an abstract base class for any drivers representing specific gripper implementations. This cannot be used on its own. If the ``__init__()`` function is overridden, it must call the ``super().__init__()`` function. :: from viam.components.gripper import Gripper .. py:attribute:: SUBTYPE :type: Final .. py:method:: open(*, extra: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, timeout: Optional[float] = None, **kwargs) :abstractmethod: :async: Open the gripper. :: my_gripper = Gripper.from_robot(robot=robot, name="my_gripper") # Open the gripper. await my_gripper.open() .. py:method:: grab(*, extra: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, timeout: Optional[float] = None, **kwargs) -> bool :abstractmethod: :async: Instruct the gripper to grab. :: my_gripper = Gripper.from_robot(robot=robot, name="my_gripper") # Grab with the gripper. grabbed = await my_gripper.grab() :returns: Indicates if the gripper grabbed something. :rtype: bool .. py:method:: stop(*, extra: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, timeout: Optional[float] = None, **kwargs) :abstractmethod: :async: Stop the gripper. It is assumed the gripper stops immediately. :: my_gripper = Gripper.from_robot(robot=robot, name="my_gripper") # Stop the gripper. await my_gripper.stop() .. py:method:: is_moving() -> bool :abstractmethod: :async: Get if the gripper is currently moving. :: my_gripper = Gripper.from_robot(robot=robot, name="my_gripper") # Check whether the gripper is currently moving. moving = await my_gripper.is_moving() print('Moving:', moving) :returns: Whether the gripper is moving. :rtype: bool .. py:method:: from_robot(robot: viam.robot.client.RobotClient, name: str) -> typing_extensions.Self :classmethod: Get the component named ``name`` from the provided robot. :param robot: The robot :type robot: RobotClient :param name: The name of the component :type name: str :returns: The component, if it exists on the robot :rtype: Self .. py:method:: do_command(command: Mapping[str, ValueTypes], *, timeout: Optional[float] = None, **kwargs) -> Mapping[str, ValueTypes] :abstractmethod: :async: Send/Receive arbitrary commands to the Resource :: command = {"cmd": "test", "data1": 500} result = component.do(command) :param command: The command to execute :type command: Mapping[str, ValueTypes] :raises NotImplementedError: Raised if the Resource does not support arbitrary commands :returns: Result of the executed command :rtype: Mapping[str, ValueTypes] .. py:method:: get_geometries(*, extra: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, timeout: Optional[float] = None) -> List[viam.proto.common.Geometry] :async: Get all geometries associated with the Component, in their current configuration, in the frame of the Component. :: geometries = await component.get_geometries() if geometries: # Get the center of the first geometry print(f"Pose of the first geometry's centerpoint: {geometries[0].center}") :returns: The geometries associated with the Component. :rtype: List[Geometry] .. py:method:: get_resource_name(name: str) -> viam.proto.common.ResourceName :classmethod: Get the ResourceName for this Resource with the given name :: # Can be used with any resource, using an arm as an example my_arm_name = my_arm.get_resource_name("my_arm") :param name: The name of the Resource :type name: str .. py:method:: get_operation(kwargs: Mapping[str, Any]) -> viam.operations.Operation Get the ``Operation`` associated with the currently running function. When writing custom resources, you should get the ``Operation`` by calling this function and check to see if it's cancelled. If the ``Operation`` is cancelled, then you can perform any necessary (terminating long running tasks, cleaning up connections, etc. ). :param kwargs: The kwargs object containing the operation :type kwargs: Mapping[str, Any] :returns: The operation associated with this function :rtype: viam.operations.Operation .. py:method:: close() :async: Safely shut down the resource and prevent further use. Close must be idempotent. Later configuration may allow a resource to be "open" again. If a resource does not want or need a close function, it is assumed that the resource does not need to return errors when future non-Close methods are called. :: await component.close()
