node-udev's Introduction

node-udev - list devices in system and detect changes on them

This library attempts to follow the libudev where it makes sense. I only needed some usb input device detection so I was happy with quite few features.

Requires node-v10.0.0, nan and libudev.

Installation

npm install udev

Installation on debian/ubuntu

sudo apt-get install libudev-dev
npm install udev

How to Use

The example below lists devices and monitors udev events on the ipnut subsystem until receiving an add event. The code is separately listed in samples/howto.js.

var udev = require("udev");

console.log(udev.list()); // this is a long list :)

var monitor = udev.monitor("input");
monitor.on('add', function (device) {
    console.log('added ' + device);
    monitor.close() // this closes the monitor.
});
monitor.on('remove', function (device) {
    console.log('removed ' + device);
});
monitor.on('change', function (device) {
    console.log('changed ' + device);
});

The example below lists devices belonging to subsystem "tty" i.e. various serial ports.

var udev = require('udev');
console.log(udev.list('tty'));

node-udev's Issues

Promises don't work in the monitor callback!

const udev = require('udev');
const monitor = udev.monitor();

monitor.on('add', () => {
  console.log('1');
  Promise.resolve()
  .then(() => {
    console.log('2');
  })
  .then(() => {
    console.log('3');
  });
});

Output should be:

1
2
3

Output is

However if you do

monitor.on('add', () => {
  console.log('1');
  setTimeout(() => {
    Promise.resolve()
    .then(() => {
      console.log('2');
    })
    .then(() => {
      console.log('3');
    });
  })
});

Then the output is

1
2
3

Reimplementation in N-API

As a response to discussion on the issue #32, we examine the possibility to reimplement the library with N-API. The motivation to do this change is that this interface is purported to be ABI-stable.

The secondary objective here is to also provide WebIDL specifications and TypeScript headers for the library, to allow easier interop from numerous languages that compile to Js.

This change is allowed to be backwards-breaking, and we will bump up the version number by major. Still the library users are considered. We will document why the interface changes, for each function. We also attempt to keep the new library useful for the same things the previous library was useful for.

Resources for the project:

N-API documentation. Outright it seems quite good, easy to comprehend and comprehensive documentation for the library.
WebIDL spec.
WebIDL wikipedia entry.
WebIDL binding generator an experimental tool to generate bindings from the WebIDL specs. I'm planning to examine this one and see how well it fares.

A new branch (v1) was created for the work toward the N-API bindings. Help is welcome and we will work on this together.

Incompatibility with latest node version

Using node v7.9.0 on Ubuntu 16.04, your module does not work. I had previously been using it with node v4.4.4 without issues.

Upon requiring your module, my application dies with this message:

#
# Fatal error in ../deps/v8/src/api.cc, line 1062
# Check failed: !value_obj->IsJSReceiver() || value_obj->IsTemplateInfo().

I suspect this is due to changes within v8 and your usage around here:

https://github.com/cheery/node-udev/blob/master/udev.cc#L246

I've never dived too deeply into v8 internals, but I'd like to help out, but wanted to report this in case I could not create a PR for this issue.

Please update npm package

It looks like master works with node 10. Thanks!

Assertion `handle->InternalFieldCount() > 0' failed.

It works fine while I use the how-to-use example after npm install udev, but will meet error like
void node::ObjectWrap::Wrap(v8::Handle<v8::Object>): Assertion handle->InternalFieldCount() > 0' failed. Aborted (core dumped) after clone source code,npm i` and node the example.

The event handler fails to print out exception messages

In a related pull request, we may have spotted a bug. The bug causes the exceptions to be ignored silently inside the event handler.

To illustrate the problem, here's an example:

var util = require("util");
var udev = require("./udev.js");

var monitor = udev.monitor();
monitor.on('add', function (device) {
    console.log(device.DEVPATH + " added");
    throw new Error("Trycatch?");
});

The above example should result in an error logged, similar to the following program:

setTimeout(function(){
    console.log("timeout");
    throw new Error("Trycatch?");
}, 1);

There should be a handler in Node.js runtime that implements the behavior, it should be added into on_handle_event to resolve this issue.

unref assertion failing in some versions of libudev

Looks like there is an incorrect reference counting management with libudev in line 180 of udev.cc

According to the documentation:

https://manpages.debian.org/testing/libudev-dev/udev_device_get_parent.3.en.html

The function udev_device_get_parent do not increment the reference, and the child node have a reference to the returned device. In some version of libudev, this triggers an assertion and the program is aborted:

Assertion 'p->n_ref > 0' failed at src/libudev/libudev-device.c:502, function udev_device_unref(). Aborting.

Changing the code around line 180 to this seems to fix the issue:

  udev_device *parentDev = udev_device_get_parent(dev.get());

  if (!parentDev) {
    return env.Null();
  }

  Napi::Object obj = Napi::Object::New(env);
  PushProperties(env, obj, parentDev);
  const char *path = udev_device_get_syspath(parentDev);

Doesn't work with node 8.0.0

What to do with this project? Your opportunity for feedback and suggestions.

Hello everybody.

I think I've been overlooking the people using this library and I'm sorry about that one. I think it could be much better if I had responded to you properly. Although I've been listening people for a long while, it's been a scary place to give me feedback. That has changed now though.

This library has 3 dependents with documentation and 2 dependencies. I suppose it's not a popular or widely used library, and there may be already much better libraries out there. I wonder what should we do here?

I haven't been interested about node or udev for years, but apparently there are weird things happening. People are building statically typed languages that use Javascript as a platform, forming something similar to the link between typed-lambda calculus <--> untyped lambda calculus. I think this can be a good possible future for node/npm and whole Javascript ecosystem. The flaws are eventually resolved, and who knows if Javascript itself changes to better.

There are quite a few projects that depend on this library. Apparently one library uses it to detect mountpoints, another uses it to detect serial ports, third one uses to find usbled devices. These are clear I guess.

So let me know, what do you think should happen to this library? Is there a better library out there already? Any frustrations or issues you have had, or proposals to fix the issues?

I barely remember I made this library and I feel like it's just a wrapper anyway. What am I even doing maintaining this? But then, there are some upcoming projects that might be relevant here. I have a C-FFI header generator that I would like to renovate. This would provide easy FFI-headers for any possible language runtime you are interested about. It might be interesting to use it in this connection, as a testbed.

Typically electron-rebuild can be used to rebuild against the present version of electron. This succeeds as expected but then the module mismatch results in a Fatal error.

I only needed some usb input device detection so I was happy with quite few features.\n\nRequires node-v0.8.0 and libudev.\n\n## Installation\n\n    npm install udev\n\n## How to Use\n\n    var udev = require("udev");\n\n    console.log(udev.list()); // this is a long list :)\n\n    var monitor = udev.monitor();\n    monitor.on(\'add\', function (device) {\n        console.log(\'added \' + device);\n        monitor.close() // this closes the monitor.\n    });\n    monitor.on(\'remove\', function (device) {\n        console.log(\'removed \' + device);\n    });\n    monitor.on(\'change\', function (device) {\n        console.log(\'changed \' + device);\n    });\n',

for now udev is working, but what to do about the type mismatch ?

doesn't install with node 0.12

I tried fixing it with https://github.com/rvagg/nan , not getting anywhere with it though

Here is the npm install errors:
