# Protobuf and MCAP Testing

## Linux

```bash
apt install -y protobuf-compiler
```

## macOS

```bash
brew install protobuf
brew install mcap
pip install -U protobuf mcap mcap-protobuf-support foxglove-schemas-protobuf
```

## Generate Python Protobuf Messages

```bash
protoc protoc --python_out=gen proto/simple_msg.proto
```

## Foxglove Protobuf

```python
from mcap_protobuf.writer import Writer

Writer.write_message(
    topic: str,
    message: Any,
    log_time: int | None = None,
    publish_time: int | None = None,
    sequence: int = 0)[source]
```

Writes a message to an MCAP file.

Parameters:
- **topic:** the topic that this message was originally published on.
- **message:** a Protobuf object to write into the MCAP.
- **log_time:** unix nanosecond timestamp of when this message was written to the MCAP.
- **publish_time:** unix nanosecond timestamp of when this message was originally published.
- **sequence:** an optional sequence count for messages on this topic.
