pyudev
pyudev is a LGPL licensed, pure Python binding for libudev, the device and hardware management and information library for Linux. It supports almost all libudev functionality. You can enumerate devices, query device properties and attributes or monitor devices, including asynchronous monitoring with threads, or within the event loops of Qt, Glib or wxPython.
The binding supports CPython 3 and compatible versions of PyPy. It is tested against udev 151 or newer, earlier versions of udev as found on dated Linux systems may work, but are not officially supported.
Usage
Usage of pyudev is quite simply thanks to the power of the underlying udev library. Getting the labels of all partitions just takes a few lines:
>>> import pyudev
>>> context = pyudev.Context()
>>> for device in context.list_devices(subsystem='block', DEVTYPE='partition'):
... print(device.get('ID_FS_LABEL', 'unlabeled partition'))
...
boot
swap
