UsbDiskUtils

UsbDiskUtils is a Python library designed to handle USB disk events, allowing users to execute tasks or run custom code upon the insertion or removal of USB disks. While the initial release focuses on macOS support, future updates are planned to extend compatibility to other operating systems.

System Compatibility

UsbDiskUtils checks the system information using the get_sys_info module. The library includes specific implementations based on the detected operating system.

Example usage

    from macOS import UsbDiskUtils

    def custom_callback(line):
        print(f"Custom Callback: {line}")


    if __name__ == "__main__":
        # Example usage
        usb_disk_utils = UsbDiskUtils()
        print(f"Starting monitoring...")
        # you can launch more than one worker to handle multiple events/Usb drives at the same time
        worker_id = usb_disk_utils.start_worker(name="NIDHAL", callback=custom_callback)

        # You can stop the worker using its ID
        #usb_disk_utils.stop_worker(worker_id)
