Hey @jonatanolofsson ,
Thanks for the contribution. I have a question regarding the usage of the namespace. What would be the best way to define the namespace in the controller_manager yaml file?
I have been trying a few things but I do not manage to make it work. Any suggestions are more than welcome.
Thanks in advance!

@cco-seasony Namespaces should be defined in your launch-file, as the structure of your configuration-file depends on the namespace your node is in.

@jonatanolofsson Thanks for your reply. The issue is that I am using the gazebo_ros2_control plugin where the config file is parsed in the urdf-file of the robot as a parameter. I already have everything set up with my desired namespace in the launch files but I cannot manage to give a namespace to the controller_manager when using it in the gazebo_ros2 _control plugin.

@cco-seasony For the case of gazebo_ros2_control, you may be interested in my PR: ros-controls/gazebo_ros2_control#80
