Notify QML for 'usb device inserted' events using PyQt5 and pyudev

问题


I have a GUI application (made with PyQt5 and QML) and would like to get notify when a usb device is plugged or unplugged from the computer. After some investigation, I have found that pyudev could be the library to use. But I have trouble using it with PyQt5 and QML. I have succeed to use the pyudev example for MonitorObservor, and there are other example provided in the documentation, here with PySide and here with Glib. I have also found an example using PyQt5 and widgets application here. But I have trouble implementing this on my PyQt5 QML application. I am sure it is very easy, so I think I'm just missing something but I can't found out what...

Here is what I have so far:

import sys
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication
from PyQt5.QtQml import QQmlApplicationEngine
from PyQt5.QtCore import QUrl
from pyudev import Context, Monitor, Device
from pyudev.pyqt5 import MonitorObserver
from Passerelle import *

# def device_connected(self, device):
def device_connected(self):
    print("Test")
    print("device action: ", device.action, ", path: ", device.device_path)
if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    engine = QQmlApplicationEngine()
    p = Passerelle()
    engine.rootContext().setContextProperty("passerelle", p)
    engine.load(QUrl("main.qml"))
    if not engine.rootObjects:
        sys.exit(-1)

    context = Context()
    monitor = Monitor.from_netlink(context)
    # monitor.filter_by(subsystem='tty')
    observer = MonitorObserver(monitor)
    observer.deviceEvent.connect(device_connected)
    monitor.start()
    ret = app.exec_()
    sys.exit(ret)

I have succeeded to print "Test" on the console when unplugging or plugging back a device but can't seem to print the device information (TypeError: device_connected() missing 1 required positional argument: 'device' when I uncomment def device_connected(self, device):).

Here the first step would be to be able to print the device information on the console, then to find a way to notify the GUI and finally to notify the GUI only if the device plugged or unplugged has a specified VID/PID.

Edit: I have found a way to identify the device through VID PID using vid = device.get('ID_VENDOR_ID') and pid = device.get('ID_MODEL_ID')

For the 2nd step, I had thought of using the Passerelle class as the QML backend:

from PyQt5.QtCore import QObject, pyqtSlot, pyqtSignal#, pyqtProperty, QUrl
from pyudev import Context, Monitor
from pyudev.pyqt5 import MonitorObserver

def device_event(observer, device):
    print ("event ", device.action, " on device ", device)
class Passerelle(QObject):
    sendDeviceEvent = pyqtSignal(int)
    def __init__(self, parent=None):
        print("Passerelle constructor called")
        QObject.__init__(self, parent)
        print("end Passerelle constructor")
    @pyqtSlot()
    def setObserverForDeviceEvents(self):
        print("setObserverForDeviceEvents called")
        context = Context()
        monitor = Monitor.from_netlink(context)
        monitor.filter_by(subsystem='usb')
        observer = MonitorObserver(monitor)
        observer.deviceEvent.connect(self.device_connected)
        monitor.start()
        print("end setObserverForDeviceEvents")
    def device_connected(self, device):
        print("Test")
        print("device action: ", device.action, ", path: ", device.device_path)

But I am not sure it is a good idea as I read in that post that the monitor needed to be started before entering qt's main loop. Which I understand as : the monitor should be started in main.py before calling app.exec_()...

Thank you in advance for your help !

The best thing to do is to modify the GUI in QML, for which the Monitor and Device object must be accessible from QML. Only QObjects receive notifications so I will create 2 classes that wrap with a light layer to both classes using q-properties and slots.

pyqtudev.py
