class CommandPtr
 

Detailed Description

A state machine representing a complete action to be performed by the robot.

Commands are run by the CommandScheduler, and can be composed into CommandGroups to allow users to build complicated multi-step actions without the need to roll the state machine logic themselves.

Commands are run synchronously from the main robot loop; no multithreading is used, unless specified explicitly from the command implementation.

Note: ALWAYS create a subclass by extending CommandHelper<Base, Subclass>, or decorators will not function!

This class is provided by the NewCommands VendorDep

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ InterruptionBehavior

An enum describing the command's behavior when another command with a shared requirement is scheduled.

Enumerator
kCancelSelf 

This command ends, End(true) is called, and the incoming command is scheduled normally.

This is the default behavior.

kCancelIncoming 

This command continues, and the incoming command is not scheduled.

Member Function Documentation

◆ AndThen() [1/2]

CommandPtr frc2::Command::AndThen ( std::function< void()>  toRun,
std::initializer_list< Subsystem * >  requirements 
) &&

Decorates this command with a runnable to run after the command finishes.

Parameters
toRunthe Runnable to run
requirementsthe required subsystems
Returns
the decorated command

◆ AndThen() [2/2]

CommandPtr frc2::Command::AndThen ( std::function< void()>  toRun,
std::span< Subsystem *const >  requirements = {} 
) &&

Decorates this command with a runnable to run after the command finishes.

Parameters
toRunthe Runnable to run
requirementsthe required subsystems
Returns
the decorated command

◆ AsProxy()

CommandPtr frc2::Command::AsProxy ( ) &&

Decorates this command to run "by proxy" by wrapping it in a ProxyCommand.

This is useful for "forking off" from command groups when the user does not wish to extend the command's requirements to the entire command group.

This overload transfers command ownership to the returned CommandPtr.

Returns
the decorated command

◆ BeforeStarting() [1/2]

CommandPtr frc2::Command::BeforeStarting ( std::function< void()>  toRun,
std::initializer_list< Subsystem * >  requirements 
) &&

Decorates this command with a runnable to run before this command starts.

Parameters
toRunthe Runnable to run
requirementsthe required subsystems
Returns
the decorated command

◆ BeforeStarting() [2/2]

CommandPtr frc2::Command::BeforeStarting ( std::function< void()>  toRun,
std::span< Subsystem *const >  requirements = {} 
) &&

Decorates this command with a runnable to run before this command starts.

Parameters
toRunthe Runnable to run
requirementsthe required subsystems
Returns
the decorated command

◆ Cancel()

void frc2::Command::Cancel ( )

Cancels this command.

Will call End(true). Commands will be canceled regardless of interruption behavior.

◆ End()

◆ Execute()

◆ FinallyDo()

CommandPtr frc2::Command::FinallyDo ( std::function< void(bool)>  end) &&

Decorates this command with a lambda to call on interrupt or end, following the command's inherent Command::End(bool) method.

Parameters
enda lambda accepting a boolean parameter specifying whether the command was interrupted.
Returns
the decorated command

◆ GetInterruptionBehavior()

virtual InterruptionBehavior frc2::Command::GetInterruptionBehavior ( ) const
inlinevirtual

How the command behaves when another command with a shared requirement is scheduled.

Returns
a variant of InterruptionBehavior, defaulting to kCancelSelf.

Reimplemented in frc2::ParallelCommandGroup, frc2::ParallelDeadlineGroup, frc2::ParallelRaceGroup, frc2::RepeatCommand, frc2::SelectCommand< Key >, frc2::SequentialCommandGroup, and frc2::WrapperCommand.

◆ GetName()

virtual std::string frc2::Command::GetName ( ) const
virtual

Gets the name of this Command.

Defaults to the simple class name if not overridden.

Returns
The display name of the Command

Reimplemented in frc2::CommandBase.

◆ GetRequirements()

virtual wpi::SmallSet< Subsystem *, 4 > frc2::Command::GetRequirements ( ) const
pure virtual

Specifies the set of subsystems used by this command.

Two commands cannot use the same subsystem at the same time. If another command is scheduled that shares a requirement, GetInterruptionBehavior() will be checked and followed. If no subsystems are required, return an empty set.

Note: it is recommended that user implementations contain the requirements as a field, and return that field here, rather than allocating a new set every time this is called.

Returns
the set of subsystems that are required
See also
InterruptionBehavior

Implemented in frc2::CommandBase, and frc2::WrapperCommand.

◆ HandleInterrupt()

CommandPtr frc2::Command::HandleInterrupt ( std::function< void()>  handler) &&

Decorates this command with a lambda to call on interrupt, following the command's inherent Command::End(bool) method.

Parameters
handlera lambda to run when the command is interrupted
Returns
the decorated command

◆ HasRequirement()

bool frc2::Command::HasRequirement ( Subsystem requirement) const

Whether the command requires a given subsystem.

Named "HasRequirement" rather than "requires" to avoid confusion with Command::Requires(Subsystem) – this may be able to be changed in a few years.

Parameters
requirementthe subsystem to inquire about
Returns
whether the subsystem is required

◆ IgnoringDisable()

CommandPtr frc2::Command::IgnoringDisable ( bool  doesRunWhenDisabled) &&

Decorates this command to run or stop when disabled.

Parameters
doesRunWhenDisabledtrue to run when disabled.
Returns
the decorated command

◆ Initialize()

◆ IsComposed()

bool frc2::Command::IsComposed ( ) const

Whether the command is currently grouped in a command group.

Used as extra insurance to prevent accidental independent use of grouped commands.

◆ IsFinished()

◆ IsGrouped()

bool frc2::Command::IsGrouped ( ) const

Whether the command is currently grouped in a command group.

Used as extra insurance to prevent accidental independent use of grouped commands.

Deprecated:
Moved to IsComposed()

◆ IsScheduled()

bool frc2::Command::IsScheduled ( ) const

Whether or not the command is currently scheduled.

Note that this does not detect whether the command is in a composition, only whether it is directly being run by the scheduler.

Returns
Whether the command is scheduled.

◆ operator=() [1/2]

Command & frc2::Command::operator= ( Command &&  )
default

◆ operator=() [2/2]

Command & frc2::Command::operator= ( const Command rhs)

◆ Perpetually()

PerpetualCommand frc2::Command::Perpetually ( ) &&
 Decorates this command to run perpetually, ignoring its ordinary end
 conditions.  The decorated command can still be interrupted or canceled.

 @return the decorated command
 @deprecated PerpetualCommand violates the assumption that execute() doesn't

get called after isFinished() returns true – an assumption that should be valid. This was unsafe/undefined behavior from the start, and RepeatCommand provides an easy way to achieve similar end results with slightly different (and safe) semantics.

◆ Repeatedly()

CommandPtr frc2::Command::Repeatedly ( ) &&

Decorates this command to run repeatedly, restarting it when it ends, until this command is interrupted.

The decorated command can still be canceled.

Returns
the decorated command

◆ RunsWhenDisabled()

virtual bool frc2::Command::RunsWhenDisabled ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Whether the given command should run when the robot is disabled.

Override to return true if the command should run when disabled.

Returns
whether the command should run when the robot is disabled

Reimplemented in frc2::ConditionalCommand, frc2::ParallelCommandGroup, frc2::ParallelDeadlineGroup, frc2::ParallelRaceGroup, frc2::PrintCommand, frc2::RepeatCommand, frc2::ScheduleCommand, frc2::SelectCommand< Key >, frc2::SequentialCommandGroup, frc2::WaitCommand, frc2::WaitUntilCommand, and frc2::WrapperCommand.

◆ Schedule()

void frc2::Command::Schedule ( )

Schedules this command.

◆ SetComposed()

void frc2::Command::SetComposed ( bool  isComposed)

Sets whether the command is currently composed in a command composition.

Can be used to "reclaim" a command if a composition is no longer going to use it. NOT ADVISED!

void frc2::Command::SetGrouped ( bool  grouped)

Sets whether the command is currently grouped in a command group.

Can be used to "reclaim" a command if a group is no longer going to use it. NOT ADVISED!

Deprecated:
Moved to SetComposed()

virtual

Sets the name of this Command.

Nullop if not overridden.
