18.1.4.9. Subscriber¶
- class fastdds.Subscriber(*args, **kwargs)¶
Class Subscriber, contains the public API that allows the user to control the reception of messages. This class should not be instantiated directly. DomainRTPSParticipant class should be used to correctly create this element.
- begin_access()¶
Indicates that the application is about to access the data samples in any of the DataReader objects attached to the Subscriber.
- Return type
ReturnCode_t
- Returns
RETCODE_OK
Warning: Not supported yet. Currently returns RETCODE_UNSUPPORTED
- static copy_from_topic_qos(reader_qos, topic_qos)¶
Copies TopicQos into the corresponding DataReaderQos
, out] reader_qos topic_qos :rtype:
ReturnCode_t
:return: RETCODE_OK if successful, an error code otherwise Warning: Not supported yet. Currently returns RETCODE_UNSUPPORTED
- create_datareader(*args)¶
This operation creates a DataReader. The returned DataReader will be attached and belong to the Subscriber.
- Parameters
topic (
TopicDescription
) – Topic the DataReader will be listening.reader_qos (
DataReaderQos
) – QoS of the DataReader.listener (
DataReaderListener
) – Pointer to the listener (default: nullptr)mask (
StatusMask
) – StatusMask that holds statuses the listener responds to (default: all).
- Return type
- Returns
Pointer to the created DataReader. nullptr if failed.
- create_datareader_with_profile(*args)¶
This operation creates a DataReader. The returned DataReader will be attached and belongs to the Subscriber.

ReturnCode_t
- Returns
RETCODE_OK if successful, an error code otherwise
- delete_datareader(reader)¶
This operation deletes a DataReader that belongs to the Subscriber.
The delete_datareader operation must be called on the same Subscriber object used to create the DataReader. If delete_datareader is called on a different Subscriber, the operation will have no effect and it will return an error.

ReturnCode_t
- Returns
RETCODE_OK
Warning: Not supported yet. Currently returns RETCODE_UNSUPPORTED

ReturnCode_t
:return: RETCODE_OK Warning: Not supported yet. Currently returns RETCODE_UNSUPPORTED
- get_default_datareader_qos(*args)¶
Overload 1:
This operation returns the default value of the DataReader QoS, that is, the QoS policies which will be used for newly created DataReader entities in the case where the QoS policies are defaulted in the create_datareader operation.
The values retrieved get_default_datareader_qos will match the set of values specified on the last successful call to get_default_datareader_qos, or else, if the call was never made, the default values.
- Return type
- Returns
Current default DataReaderQos.
Overload 2:
This operation returns the default value of the DataReader QoS, that is, the QoS policies which will be used for newly created DataReader entities in the case where the QoS policies are defaulted in the create_datareader operation.
The values retrieved get_default_datareader_qos will match the set of values specified on the last successful call to get_default_datareader_qos, or else, if the call was never made, the default values.
- Return type
- Returns
Current default DataReaderQos.
Overload 3:
This operation retrieves the default value of the DataReader QoS, that is, the QoS policies which will be used for newly created DataReader entities in the case where the QoS policies are defaulted in the create_datareader operation.
The values retrieved get_default_datareader_qos will match the set of values specified on the last successful call to get_default_datareader_qos, or else, if the call was never made, the default values.
- Parameters
qos (
DataReaderQos
) – DataReaderQos where the default_qos is returned- Return type
ReturnCode_t
- Returns
RETCODE_OK
- get_instance_handle()¶
Returns the Subscriber’s handle.
- Return type
InstanceHandle_t
- Returns
InstanceHandle of this Subscriber.
- get_listener()¶
Retrieves the attached SubscriberListener.
- Return type
- Returns
Pointer to the SubscriberListener
- get_participant()¶
This operation returns the DomainParticipant to which the Subscriber belongs.
- Return type
- Returns
DomainParticipant Pointer
- get_qos(*args)¶
Overload 1:
Allows accessing the Subscriber Qos.
- Return type
- Returns
SubscriberQos reference
Overload 2:
Retrieves the Subscriber Qos.
- Parameters
qos (
SubscriberQos
) – SubscriberQos where the qos is returned- Return type
ReturnCode_t
- Returns
RETCODE_OK
- has_datareaders()¶
This operation checks if the subscriber has DataReaders
- Return type
boolean
- Returns
true if the subscriber has one or several DataReaders, false in other case
- lookup_datareader(topic_name)¶
This operation retrieves a previously-created DataReader belonging to the Subscriber that is attached to a Topic with a matching topic_name. If no such DataReader exists, the operation will return nullptr.
If multiple DataReaders attached to the Subscriber satisfy this condition, then the operation will return one of them. It is not specified which one.
- Parameters
topic_name (string) – Name of the topic associated to the DataReader
- Return type
- Returns
Pointer to a previously created DataReader created on a Topic with that topic_name
- notify_datareaders()¶
This operation invokes the operation on_data_available on the DataReaderListener objects attached to contained DataReader entities.
This operation is typically invoked from the on_data_on_readers operation in the SubscriberListener. That way the SubscriberListener can delegate to the DataReaderListener objects the handling of the data.
- Return type
ReturnCode_t
- Returns
RETCODE_OK
- set_default_datareader_qos(qos)¶
This operation sets a default value of the DataReader QoS policies which will be used for newly created DataReader entities in the case where the QoS policies are defaulted in the create_datareader operation.
This operation will check that the resulting policies are self consistent; if they are not, the operation will have no effect and return false.
The special value DATAREADER_QOS_DEFAULT may be passed to this operation to indicate that the default QoS should be reset back to the initial values the factory would use, that is the values that would be used if the set_default_datareader_qos operation had never been called.
- Parameters
qos (
DataReaderQos
) – new value for DataReaderQos to set as default- Return type
ReturnCode_t
- Returns
RETCODE_INCONSISTENT_POLICY if the Qos is not self consistent and RETCODE_OK if the qos is changed correctly.
- set_listener(*args)¶

) – new value for the SubscriberListenermask (
StatusMask
) – StatusMask that holds statuses the listener responds to.
- Return type
ReturnCode_t
- Returns
RETCODE_OK
- set_qos(qos)¶
Allows modifying the Subscriber Qos. The given Qos must be supported by the SubscriberQos.

ReturnCode_t
- Returns
RETCODE_IMMUTABLE_POLICY if any of the Qos cannot be changed, RETCODE_INCONSISTENT_POLICY if the Qos is not self consistent and RETCODE_OK if the qos is changed correctly.
