# RobotRaconteurNET NuGet Package
[](https://github.com/robotraconteur/robotraconteur/actions/workflows/main.yml)
A communication framework for robotics, automation, and the Internet of Things

[J. Wason and J. T. Wen, "Robot Raconteur Updates on an Open Source Interoperable Middleware for Robotics", in Proc. IEEE Conference on Automation Science and Engineering, 2023, pp. 1-8.](https://files2.wasontech.com/RobotRaconteur_CASE2023.pdf)
Github Repository: https://github.com/robotraconteur/robotraconteur
## Introduction
Robot Raconteur is a powerful communication framework for robotics and automation systems. While intended for use with robotics, it is flexible enough to be used for other applications, including building control, infrastructure, and Internet-of-Things applications, among many others. This package
contains the Robot Raconteur Core library for .NET (C\#).
## Installation
For most platforms, the easiest way to install Robot Raconteur is using `dotnet`:
```bash
dotnet add package RobotRaconteurNET
```
## Documentation
See the [Robot Raconteur Documentation](https://github.com/robotraconteur/robotraconteur/wiki/Documentation)
See the [Robot Raconteur Examples](https://github.com/robotraconteur/robotraconteur/tree/master/examples)
## Example
This example demonstrates a simple client for the Reynard the Robot cartoon robot. See
[Reynard the Robot](https://github.com/robotraconteur/reynard-the-robot) for more information
and setup instructions.
In a terminal,run the following command to start the Reynard the Robot server:
```bash
python -m reynard_the_robot
```
On Linux, you may need to use `python3` instead of `python`.
Open a browser to [http://localhost:29201](http://localhost:29201) to view the Reynard user interface.
The following is an example C\# client for Reynard the Robot:
```csharp
using System;
using RobotRaconteur;
using System.Threading;
// Initialize the client node
using (var node_setup = new ClientNodeSetup())
{
// Connect to the Reynard service using a URL
var c = (experimental.reynard_the_robot.Reynard)RobotRaconteurNode.s.ConnectService(
"rr+tcp://localhost:29200?service=reynard");
// Teleport the robot
c.teleport(0.1, -0.2);
// Drive the robot with no timeout
c.drive_robot(0.5, -0.2, -1, false);
// Wait for one second
RobotRaconteurNode.s.Sleep(1000);
// Stop the robot
c.drive_robot(0, 0, -1, false);
// Set the arm position
c.setf_arm_position(100.0 * (Math.PI / 180), -30 * (Math.PI / 180), -70 * (Math.PI / 180));
// Set the color to red
c.color = new double[] { 1.0, 0.0, 0.0 };
// Say hello
c.say("Hello, World From C#!");
}
```
