WinUSB drivers #112

Open zakaria-chahboun opened 2 years ago

zakaria-chahboun commented 2 years ago

Hi! I want to work with usb devices in Go, On linux i just have to install libsub, But on windows i have to install a lot of building tools, some times it doesn't work properly! I just want to install WinUSB drivers like https://github.com/node-usb/node-usb did! (it's a corossplatform usb support on javascript node)

can gousb just rely on Zadig drivers without any building steps?

Thanks!

If you are using only HID devices, what about package github.com/karalabe/hid? The original author is not responding, but I maintain a fork where I have fixed all the pending issues. The module embeds libusb and hidapi for cross-platform support without requiring to install drivers. The API is quite limited though.

@dolmen I actually want to list all USB devices with their interface class such as "printer", After getting what i want, It should return to me information like vid pid path etc ...

I don't face any problem with Linux, But on windows it require a lot of building tools, And it have failed! is you fork works for my case? Thanks!
