-        Construct an Node action.
-
-        Many arguments are passed eventually to
-        :class:`launch.actions.ExecuteProcess`, so see the documentation of
-        that class for additional details.
-        However, the `cmd` is not meant to be used, instead use the
-        `node_executable` and `arguments` keyword arguments to this function.
-
-        This action, once executed, delegates most work to the
-        :class:`launch.actions.ExecuteProcess`, but it also converts some ROS
-        specific arguments into generic command line arguments.
-
-        The launch_ros.substitutions.ExecutableInPackage substitution is used
-        to find the executable at runtime, so this Action also raise the
-        exceptions that substituion can raise when the package or executable
-        are not found.
-
-        If the node_name is not given (or is None) then no name is passed to
-        the node on creation and instead the default name specified within the
-        code of the node is used instead.
-
-        The node_namespace can either be absolute (i.e. starts with /) or
-        relative.
-        If absolute, then nothing else is considered and this is passed
-        directly to the node to set the namespace.
-        If relative, the namespace in the 'ros_namespace' LaunchConfiguration
-        will be prepended to the given relative node namespace.
-        If no node_namespace is given, then the default namespace `/` is
-        assumed.
-
-        The parameters are passed as a list, with each element either a yaml
-        file that contains parameter rules (string or pathlib.Path to the full
-        path of the file), or a dictionary that specifies parameter rules.
-        Keys of the dictionary can be strings or an iterable of Substitutions
-        that will be expanded to a string.
-        Values in the dictionary can be strings, integers, floats, or tuples
-        of Substitutions that will be expanded to a string.
-        Additionally, values in the dictionary can be lists of the
-        aforementioned types, or another dictionary with the same properties.
-        A yaml file with the resulting parameters from the dictionary will be
-        written to a temporary file, the path to which will be passed to the
-        node.
-        Multiple dictionaries/files can be passed: each file path will be
-        passed in in order to the node (where the last definition of a
-        parameter takes effect).
-
-        :param: package the package in which the node executable can be found
-        :param: node_executable the name of the executable to find
-        :param: node_name the name of the node
-        :param: node_namespace the ros namespace for this Node
-        :param: parameters list of names of yaml files with parameter rules,
-            or dictionaries of parameters.
-        :param: use_remappings whether to apply the remappings at runtime.
-        :param: remappings ordered list of 'to' and 'from' string pairs to be
-            passed to the node as ROS remapping rules
