Cross USB
A USB library which works seamlessly across most native and WASM targets.
[!NOTE] Web USB only works in Chromium based browsers for now.
[!NOTE] Web USB has certain interaction requirements in browsers, along with requiring a Secure context. Please read more about this on the mdn web docs
[!IMPORTANT] When compiling this crate on a WASM target, you must use either the rustflags
RUSTFLAGS=--cfg=web_sys_unstable_apis
or by passing the argument in a.cargo/config.toml
file. Read more here: https://rustwasm.github.io/wasm-bindgen/web-sys/unstable-apis.html
Dependencies
For native USB, the crate utilizies nusb, a pure rust library similar to the very popular libusb.
For WASM, this crate utilizes web-sys which gives access to browser API calls, and in this case is used to interact with WebUSB
Example
To learn about how USB communciations work, check out USB in a NutShell.
use cross_usb::prelude::*;
use cross_usb::usb::{Recipient, ControlType, ControlIn};
use cross_usb::device_filter;
// Obtain a device descriptor using a DeviceFilter,
// in this case with its VendorID and ProductID
let filters = vec![
device_filter!{vendor_id: 0x054c, product_id: 0x00c9}
];
let dev_descriptor = cross_usb::get_device(filters).await.expect("Failed to find device");
// Open the device that the descriptor is describing
let dev = dev_descriptor.open().await.expect("Failed to open device");
// Obtain an interface of the device
let interface = dev.open_interface(0).await.expect("Failed to open interface");
// Send a Control transfer to the device, obtaining
// the result and storing it in `result`
let result = interface.control_in(ControlIn {
control_type: ControlType::Vendor,
recipient: Recipient::Interface,
request: 0x01,
value: 0,
index: 0,
length: 4,
})
.await
.expect("Sending control transfer failed");

TODO
- Add choice for native backend between
libusb
wrapper and pure rustnusb
- Allow platform-specific operations if the user requires them
- Hot plug support... requires either using
libusb
as an optional backend or fornusb
to implement it
