pyudev 0.8

A libudev binding

http://packages.python.org/pyudev

pyudev is a Python binding for libudev, available under the terms fo the GNU LGPL 2.1 (see COPYING).

Refer to the website for detailed information and API documentation.

Installation

The basic binding is implemented in pure Python atop of ctypes, contains no native code and has no dependencies. The only requirements are Python 2.6 or newer (Python 3 is supported as well) and of course udev. pyudev is tested against udev 151 and newer, older versions of udev may or may not work.

The toolkit integration modules in pyudev.pyqt4, pyudev.pyside and pyudev.glib require some libraries from the corresponding toolkit. Refer to the documentation of these modules for a more precise description.

Installation is rather simple, just run:

python setup.py install
