Usage

Minimal example

udev

The program will stop and wait for you to plugin the usb device. After the device got plugged in it automatically recognize it and displays the udev rules.

---

By default the device will be called "ttyDevice". To change it use:

udev new_gadget

To include the KERNELS information sot he rule applies only on the specified prot run:

udev -k

To write to a file use the --output flag followed with the path to the file. The rule will be appended to it.

udev -o my.rules

Full example

udev my_gadget -k -o my.rules

You should have a rules.rules file which can be copied to /etc/udev/rules.d/ directory

Activate the new rules

sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo service udev restart && sudo udevadm trigger

Run Tests

python3 -m nose2 -v

TODO

• save output directly in /etc/udev/rules.d/ directory (is sudo permitted)
• pip3 install udev_tools git+https://github.com/JosefGst/udev_tools not working
• (optional) check if directory exists, otherwise create
