+ GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
2
+ Version 3, 29 June 2007
3
+
4
+ Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
5
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
6
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
7
+
8
+
9
+ This version of the GNU Lesser General Public License incorporates
10
+ the terms and conditions of version 3 of the GNU General Public
11
+ License, supplemented by the additional permissions listed below.
12
+
13
+ 0. Additional Definitions.
14
+
15
+ As used herein, "this License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Lesser
16
+ General Public License, and the "GNU GPL" refers to version 3 of the GNU
17
+ General Public License.
18
+
19
+ "The Library" refers to a covered work governed by this License,
20
+ other than an Application or a Combined Work as defined below.
21
+
22
+ An "Application" is any work that makes use of an interface provided
23
+ by the Library, but which is not otherwise based on the Library.
24
+ Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a mode
25
+ of using an interface provided by the Library.
26
+
27
+ A "Combined Work" is a work produced by combining or linking an
28
+ Application with the Library. The particular version of the Library
29
+ with which the Combined Work was made is also called the "Linked
30
+ Version".
31
+
32
+ The "Minimal Corresponding Source" for a Combined Work means the
33
+ Corresponding Source for the Combined Work, excluding any source code
34
+ for portions of the Combined Work that, considered in isolation, are
35
+ based on the Application, and not on the Linked Version.
36
+
37
+ The "Corresponding Application Code" for a Combined Work means the
38
+ object code and/or source code for the Application, including any data
39
+ and utility programs needed for reproducing the Combined Work from the
40
+ Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.
41
+
42
+ 1. Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.
43
+
44
+ You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License
45
+ without being bound by section 3 of the GNU GPL.
46
+
47
+ 2. Conveying Modified Versions.
48
+
49
+ If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a
50
+ facility refers to a function or data to be supplied by an Application
51
+ that uses the facility (other than as an argument passed when the
52
+ facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified
53
+ version:
54
+
55
+ a) under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to
56
+ ensure that, in the event an Application does not supply the
57
+ function or data, the facility still operates, and performs
58
+ whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful, or
59
+
60
+ b) under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of
61
+ this License applicable to that copy.
62
+
63
+ 3. Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.
64
+
65
+ The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from
66
+ a header file that is part of the Library. You may convey such object
67
+ code under terms of your choice, provided that, if the incorporated
68
+ material is not limited to numerical parameters, data structure
69
+ layouts and accessors, or small macros, inline functions and templates
70
+ (ten or fewer lines in length), you do both of the following:
71
+
72
+ a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the
73
+ Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
74
+ covered by this License.
75
+
76
+ b) Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
77
+ document.
78
+
79
+ 4. Combined Works.
80
+
81
+ You may convey a Combined Work under terms of your choice that,
82
+ taken together, effectively do not restrict modification of the
83
+ portions of the Library contained in the Combined Work and reverse
84
+ engineering for debugging such modifications, if you also do each of
85
+ the following:
86
+
87
+ a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the Combined Work that
88
+ the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
89
+ covered by this License.
90
+
91
+ b) Accompany the Combined Work with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
92
+ document.
93
+
94
+ c) For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during
95
+ execution, include the copyright notice for the Library among
96
+ these notices, as well as a reference directing the user to the
97
+ copies of the GNU GPL and this license document.
98
+
99
+ d) Do one of the following:
100
+
101
+ 0) Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this
102
+ License, and the Corresponding Application Code in a form
103
+ suitable for, and under terms that permit, the user to
104
+ recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of
105
+ the Linked Version to produce a modified Combined Work, in the
106
+ manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying
107
+ Corresponding Source.
108
+
109
+ 1) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
110
+ Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (a) uses at run time
111
+ a copy of the Library already present on the user's computer
112
+ system, and (b) will operate properly with a modified version
113
+ of the Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked
114
+ Version.
115
+
116
+ e) Provide Installation Information, but only if you would otherwise
117
+ be required to provide such information under section 6 of the
118
+ GNU GPL, and only to the extent that such information is
119
+ necessary to install and execute a modified version of the
120
+ Combined Work produced by recombining or relinking the
121
+ Application with a modified version of the Linked Version. (If
122
+ you use option 4d0, the Installation Information must accompany
123
+ the Minimal Corresponding Source and Corresponding Application
124
+ Code. If you use option 4d1, you must provide the Installation
125
+ Information in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL
126
+ for conveying Corresponding Source.)
127
+
128
+ 5. Combined Libraries.
129
+
130
+ You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
131
+ Library side by side in a single library together with other library
132
+ facilities that are not Applications and are not covered by this
133
+ License, and convey such a combined library under terms of your
134
+ choice, if you do both of the following:
135
+
136
+ a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based
137
+ on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities,
138
+ conveyed under the terms of this License.
139
+
140
+ b) Give prominent notice with the combined library that part of it
141
+ is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the
142
+ accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
143
+
144
+ 6. Revised Versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
145
+
146
+ The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
147
+ of the GNU Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new
148
+ versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
149
+ differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
150
+
151
+ Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
152
+ Library as you received it specifies that a certain numbered version
153
+ of the GNU Lesser General Public License "or any later version"
154
+ applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and
155
+ conditions either of that published version or of any later version
156
+ published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library as you
157
+ received it does not specify a version number of the GNU Lesser
158
+ General Public License, you may choose any version of the GNU Lesser
159
+ General Public License ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
160
+
161
+ If the Library as you received it specifies that a proxy can decide
162
+ whether future versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License shall
163
+ apply, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of any version is
164
+ permanent authorization for you to choose that version for the
165
+ Library.

6
+ Access USB devices from Ruby
7
+ ============================
8
+
9
+ LIBUSB is a Ruby binding that gives Ruby programmers access to arbitrary USB devices.
10
+
11
+ * [libusb](http://libusb.info) is a library that gives full access to devices connected via the USB bus. No special kernel driver is thus necessary for accessing USB devices.
12
+ * This Ruby binding supports the API version 1.0 of [libusb](http://libusb.info). Note that the old "legacy" version 0.1.x of libusb uses a completely different API that is covered by the ruby extension [ruby-usb](http://www.a-k-r.org/ruby-usb/) .
13
+
14
+
15
+ LIBUSB for Ruby is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License version 3.
16
+
17
+ Features
18
+ --------
19
+
20
+ * Access to descriptors of devices, configurations, interfaces, settings and endpoints
21
+ * Synchronous and asynchronous communication for bulk, control, interrupt and isochronous transfers
22
+ * Support for USB-3.0 descriptors and bulk streams
23
+ * Compatibility layer for [ruby-usb](http://www.a-k-r.org/ruby-usb/) (API based on libusb-0.1). See {::USB} for description.

36
+ {LIBUSB::Context#devices} is used to get all or only particular devices.
37
+ After {LIBUSB::Device#open_interface opening and claiming} the {LIBUSB::Device} the resulting {LIBUSB::DevHandle} can be
38
+ used to communicate with the connected USB device
39
+ by {LIBUSB::DevHandle#control_transfer}, {LIBUSB::DevHandle#bulk_transfer},
40
+ {LIBUSB::DevHandle#interrupt_transfer} or by using the {LIBUSB::Transfer} classes.
41
+
42
+ A {LIBUSB::Device} can also be used to retrieve information about it,
43
+ by using the device descriptor attributes.
44
+ A {LIBUSB::Device} could have several configurations. You can then decide of which
45
+ configuration to enable. You can only enable one configuration at a time.
46
+
47
+ Each {LIBUSB::Configuration} has one or more interfaces. These can be seen as functional group
48
+ performing a single feature of the device.
49
+
50
+ Each {LIBUSB::Interface} has at least one {LIBUSB::Setting}. The first setting is always default.
51
+ An alternate setting can be used independent on each interface.
52
+
53
+ Each {LIBUSB::Setting} specifies it's own set of communication endpoints.
54
+ Each {LIBUSB::Endpoint} specifies the type of transfer, direction, polling interval and
55
+ maximum packet size.

59
+ Prerequisites
60
+ -------------
61
+
62
+ * Linux, MacOS or Windows system with Ruby MRI 1.9/2.x, JRuby or recent version of Rubinius
63
+ * Optionally: [libusb](http://libusb.info) C-library version 1.0.8 or any newer version.
64
+ The system libusb library can be installed like so:
65
+ * Debian or Ubuntu:
66
+
67
+ ```
68
+ $ sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev
69
+ ```
70
+ * MacOS: install with homebrew:
71
+
72
+ ```
73
+ $ brew install libusb
74
+ ```
75
+ or macports:
76
+
77
+ ```
78
+ $ port install libusb
79
+ ```
80
+ * Windows: libusb.gem already comes with a precompiled `libusb.dll`, but you need to install a device driver (see [below](#usage-on-windows))
81
+
82
+ Install
83
+ -------
84
+
85
+ $ gem install libusb
86
+
87
+ While ```gem install``` the system is checked for a usable libusb library installation.
88
+ If none could be found, a bundled libusb version is built and used, instead.
89
+
90
+ Latest code can be used in this way:
91
+
92
+ $ git clone git://github.com/larskanis/libusb.git
93
+ $ bundle
94
+ $ rake install_gem
95
+
96
+ Troubleshooting
97
+ ------------------------
98
+ In order to implement a driver for a USB device, it's essential to have a look at the packets that are send to and received back from the USB device. [Wireshark](https://www.wireshark.org) has builtin capabilities to sniff USB traffic. On Linux you possibly need to load the usbmon kernel module before start:
99
+ ```
100
+ sudo modprobe usbmon
101
+ ```
102
+ On Windows it's possible to sniff USB, if the USB kernel driver was installed by the Wireshark setup.
103
+
104
+ ![Wireshark](wireshark-usb-sniffer.png?raw=true "Wireshark sniffing USB packets")
105
+
106
+ Device hotplug support
107
+ ----------------------
108
+
109
+ Support for device hotplugging can be used, if ```LIBUSB.has_capability?(:CAP_HAS_HOTPLUG)``` returns ```true```.
110
+ This requires libusb-1.0.16 or newer on Linux or MacOS. Windows support is [still on the way](https://github.com/libusbx/libusbx/issues/9).
111
+
112
+ A hotplug event handler can be registered with {LIBUSB::Context#on_hotplug_event}.
113
+ You then need to call {LIBUSB::Context#handle_events} in order to receive any events.
114
+ This can be done as blocking calls (possibly in it's own thread) or by using {LIBUSB::Context#pollfds} to
115
+ detect any events to handle.
116
+
117
+
118
+ Usage on Windows
119
+ ----------------
120
+
121
+ In contrast to Linux, any access to an USB device by LIBUSB on Windows requires a proper driver
122
+ installed in the system. Fortunately creating such a driver is quite easy with
123
+ [Zadig](http://zadig.akeo.ie/). Select the interesting USB device,
124
+ choose WinUSB driver and press "Install Driver". That's it. You may take the generated output directory
125
+ with it's INI-file and use it for driver installations on other 32 or 64 bit Windows
126
+ systems.
127
+
128
+
129
+ Cross compiling for Windows
130
+ ---------------------------
131
+
132
+ Libusb-gem can be cross built for Windows and Linux operating systems, using the [rake-compiler-dock](https://github.com/larskanis/rake-compiler-dock) .
133
+ Just run:
134
+
135
+ $ rake gem:native
136
+
137
+ If everything works, there are several platform specific gem files (like `libusb-VERSION-x64-mingw32.gem`) in the pkg
138
+ directory.
139
+
140
+ EventMachine integration
141
+ ------------------------
142
+
143
+ Libusb for Ruby comes with an experimental integration to [EventMachine](http://rubyeventmachine.com/).
144
+ That API is currently proof of concept - see {LIBUSB::Context#eventmachine_register}.
145
+ If you're experienced with EventMachine, please leave a comment.
