Hid-tools

Python scripts to manipulate HID data

hid-tools is a set of tools to interact with the kernel’s HID subsystem.

hid-recorder prints the HID Report Descriptor from a /dev/hidraw device node and any HID reports coming from that device. The output format can be used with hid-replay for debugging.

hid-replay takes the output from hid-recorder and replays it through a virtual HID device that looks exactly like the one recorded.

hid-decode takes a HID Report Descriptor and prints a human-readable version of it. hid-decode takes binary report descriptors, strings of bytes, and other formats.

hid-tools requires hidraw.ko driver to be loaded in to kernel.
