This crate provides a rust abstraction over the features of the C library
hidapi. Based off of
hidapi-rs by ruabmbua.
The only difference is that it builds off the libusb
coming from rusb
. More information: here. If you want to make any contribution, please make them to the ruabmbua repository.
This crate is on crates.io and can be
used by adding hidapi-rusb
to the dependencies in your project's Cargo.toml
.
extern crate hidapi_rusb;
let api = hidapi_rusb::HidApi::new().unwrap();
// Print out information about all connected devices
for device in api.device_list() {
println!("{:#?}", device);
}
// Connect to device using its VID and PID
let (VID, PID) = (0x0123, 0x3456);
let device = api.open(VID, PID).unwrap();
// Read data from device
let mut buf = [0u8; 8];
let res = device.read(&mut buf[..]).unwrap();
println!("Read: {:?}", &buf[..res]);
// Write data to device
let buf = [0u8, 1, 2, 3, 4];
let res = device.write(&buf).unwrap();
println!("Wrote: {:?} byte(s)", res);
