如何识别 osx 上的 USB 设备 "path" 并从节点创建读取流数据?

How to identify the "path" of USB device on osx and createReadStream its data from node?

我想编写一个应用程序来重新映射我在 NodeJS 中的这个脚踏板的按键。我为我的脚踏板找到了一个类似的库;但是,它硬编码了 linux 而不是 OSX 的设备的 USB 路径。引发错误:

failed to open file { Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/dev/usb/hiddev0'
  errno: -2,
  code: 'ENOENT',
  syscall: 'open',
  path: '/dev/usb/hiddev0'

问题: 如何识别我的设备的 USB 路径,以便我可以从 USB 设备创建数据读取流。

终端命令:

system_profiler SPUSBDataType

输出:

#! /usr/bin/env node
'use strict';

const fs = require('fs');
const robot = require('robotjs');

const DEFAULT_DEVICE_PATH = '/dev/usb/hiddev0'; // this path needs to change
const DEFAULT_KEYS = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
const RETRY_INTERVAL = 5 * 1000;

const argv = require('yargs')
             .array('k')
             .alias('k', 'keys')
             .alias('p', 'path')
             .default('path', DEFAULT_DEVICE_PATH)
             .default('k', [])
             .argv;

const keyMap = DEFAULT_KEYS.map((key, i) => (argv.keys[i] || key));
const state = [ false, false, false ];

function updateState(index, value) {
  const previousState = state[index];
  const currentState = (value === 0x01);

  if (previousState !== currentState) {
    const key = keyMap[index];
    robot.keyToggle(key, currentState ? 'down' : 'up');
  }

  state[index] = currentState;
}

function openFile() {
  const stream = fs.createReadStream(argv.path); // so that I can read the stream here.
  const size = 8;
  const offset = 4;

  stream.on('data', function(chunk) {
    for (var i=0; i<chunk.length / size; i++) {
      updateState(i, chunk[i * size + offset]);
    }
  });

  stream.on('error', function(err) {
    console.log('failed to open file', err);
    setTimeout(openFile, RETRY_INTERVAL);
  });
}

openFile();

这是一个库,可以为您提供 OSX 中任何 HID usb 设备的路径:
