A python library for creating and interfacing with USB Gadgets on Linux through libcomposite.
This library assumes the ConfigFS gadget directory to be
/sys/kernel/config/usb_gadget.
If this is not the case, specify the correct directory in the call to USBGadget(name, path).
Any gadget type that libcomposite supports can be created.
import usb_gadget
gadget = usb_gadget.USBGadget('my_test_gadget')
# ... set up gadget parameters, functions and configurations
gadget.activate()This library has an interface for HID gadgets. Specifically, keyboard, mouse and game controller.
import usb_gadget
gadget = usb_gadget.USBGadget('my_test_gadget')
function = usb_gadget.HIDFunction(gadget, 'keyboard0')
keyboard = usb_gadget.KeyboardGadget(function.device)
keyboard.press_and_release('a')See also example.py for a full keyboard setup
