+This page explains how to write your own publisher for ESIM.
+This will enable you to control exactly how you want the simulated data to be saved on disk (events, images, camera poses, etc.).
+
+As a simple example, we will write our own publisher, which will simply write all the simulated events into a text file (and ignore all the other measurements).
+
+Here are the steps to follow:
+
+- Write your own `TextFilePublisher` C++ class implementing the [`Publisher`](https://github.com/uzh-rpg/rpg_esim/blob/master/event_camera_simulator/esim_visualization/include/esim/visualization/publisher_interface.hpp#L8) interface by creating the two files below.
+
+Header `esim_visualization/include/esim/visualization/text_file_publisher.hpp`:
+
+```cpp
+#pragma once
+
+#include <esim/common/types.hpp>
+#include <esim/visualization/publisher_interface.hpp>
+#include <fstream>
+
+namespace event_camera_simulator {
+
+class TextFilePublisher : public Publisher
+{
+public:
+  TextFilePublisher(const std::string& path_to_events_text_file, size_t num_cameras);
+  ~TextFilePublisher();
+
+  virtual void eventsCallback(const EventsVector& events) override; // will be called when new events are available
+
+  static Publisher::Ptr createFromGflags(size_t num_cameras);
+
+
+private:
+  size_t num_cameras_;
+  std::vector<cv::Size> sensor_sizes_;
+  std::ofstream events_text_file_;
+};
+
+} // namespace event_camera_simulator
+```
+
+C++ file (`esim/visualization/src/text_file_publisher.cpp`):
+
+```cpp
+#include <esim/visualization/text_file_publisher.hpp>
+#include <esim/common/utils.hpp>
+
+#include <gflags/gflags.h>
+#include <glog/logging.h>
+
+DEFINE_string(path_to_events_text_file, "",
+"Path to the text file in which to write the events.");
+
+namespace event_camera_simulator {
+
+TextFilePublisher::TextFilePublisher(const std::string& path_to_events_text_file, size_t num_cameras)
+{
+  CHECK_EQ(num_cameras, 1) << "TextFilePublisher implemented for one camera only";
+  events_text_file_.open(path_to_events_text_file);
+}
+
+TextFilePublisher::~TextFilePublisher()
+{
+    events_text_file_.close();
+}
+
+Publisher::Ptr TextFilePublisher::createFromGflags(size_t num_cameras)
+{
+  if(FLAGS_path_to_events_text_file == "")
+  {
+    LOG(WARNING) << "Empty events text file path: will not write events to a text file.";
+    return nullptr;
+  }
+
+  return std::make_shared<TextFilePublisher>(FLAGS_path_to_events_text_file,
+                                             num_cameras);
+}
+
+void TextFilePublisher::eventsCallback(const EventsVector& events)
+{
+    CHECK_EQ(events.size(), 1);
+    for(const Event& e : events[0])
+    {
+        events_text_file_ << e.t << " " << e.x << " " << e.y << " " << e.pol << std::endl;
+    }
+}
+
+} // namespace event_camera_simulator
+```
+
+- Add these two files to the [CMakeLists.txt](https://github.com/uzh-rpg/rpg_esim/blob/master/event_camera_simulator/esim_visualization/CMakeLists.txt) in the `esim_visualization` package:
+
+```
+set(HEADERS
+    ...
+    include/esim/visualization/text_file_publisher.hpp
+)
+
+set(SOURCES
+    ...
+    src/text_file_publisher.cpp
+)
+```
+
+- Register the new publisher in [this file](https://github.com/uzh-rpg/rpg_esim/blob/master/event_camera_simulator/esim_ros/src/esim_node.cpp), e.g. like this:
+```cpp
+  Publisher::Ptr my_publisher = TextFilePublisher::createFromGflags(data_provider_->numCameras());
+  if(my_publisher) sim->addPublisher(my_publisher);
+```
+
+Do not forget to include the new header file at the top of `esim_node.cpp`:
+```cpp
+#include <esim/visualization/text_file_publisher.hpp>
+```
+
+- Now, recompile ESIM: `catkin build esim_ros`.
+
+- You can now run ESIM, setting the path to the event file as a flag:
+```rosrun esim_ros esim_node --flagfile=cfg/example.conf --path_to_events_text_file=/tmp/events.txt```
+
+The events will now be written to the text file at: `/tmp/events.txt`!
+
+### Next steps
+
+Now that you know how to write your own publisher, try to implement the other callback functions (e.g. `image_callback()`, etc.) to save more measurements to disk!
