NAME

       USB::LibUSB - Perl interface to the libusb-1.0 API.

SYNOPSIS

        use USB::LibUSB;

        #
        # simple program to list all devices on the USB
        #

        my $ctx = USB::LibUSB->init();
        my @devices = $ctx->get_device_list();

        for my $dev (@devices) {
            my $bus_number = $dev->get_bus_number();
            my $device_address = $dev->get_device_address();
            my $desc = $dev->get_device_descriptor();
            my $idVendor = $desc->{idVendor};
            my $idProduct = $desc->{idProduct};

            printf("Bus %03d Device %03d: ID %04x:%04x\n", $bus_number,
                   $device_address, $idVendor, $idProduct);
        }

        $handle->set_auto_detach_kernel_driver(1); # Linux only

        # We want to use interface 0
        $handle->claim_interface(0);

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a Perl interface to the libusb-1.0 API.  It provides access to most
       basic libusb functionality including read-out of device descriptors and synchronous device
       I/O.

       Staying as close as possible to the libusb-1.0 API, this module adds convenient error
       handling and additional high-level functionality (e.g. device discovery with vid, pid and
       serial number). Easy to build more functionality without knowing about XS.

INSTALLATION

   Prerequisites
       Linux/UNIX

       This requires libusb (>= 1.0.17) development files and pkg-config installed.

       On Debian like Linux:

        $ apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev pkg-config

       On Cygwin <https://www.cygwin.com/> you need the pkg-config, libusb1.0-devel and libcrypt-
       devel packages.

       Windows

       On Windows you have to manually download the libusb binaries from <http://libusb.info> and
       extract them somewhere.

       Assuming that the location of the extracted libusb folder is C:\Users\simon\libusb-1.0,
       you need to set the "USB_LIBUSB_INCLUDE" and "USB_LIBUSB_LIB" environment variables as
       follows:

        > SET USB_LIBUSB_INCLUDE=-IC:\Users\simon\libusb-1.0\include\libusb-1.0
        > SET USB_LIBUSB_LIB=-lC:\Users\simon\libusb-1.0\MinGW64\dll\libusb-1.0.dll.a

       You will also need to add

        C:\Users\simon\libusb-1.0\MinGW64\dll

       to the Path environment variable.

       For StrawberryPerl, version 5.26 or newer is required (see
       <https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=121219>).

       Driver Installation

       On Windows you need an additional driver to use a device with libusb. See the Windows
       <https://github.com/libusb/libusb/wiki/Windows> section in the libusb wiki.

   Building USB::LibUSB
       The rest of the installation can be done by a CPAN client like cpanm:

        $ cpanm USB::LibUSB
