Detect connected interfaces in PC

Open ferranmercader opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

I would like to have a function that detects if a single or multiple interfaces (and multiple brands) are connected to the computer and returns all possible info. In this way we would be able to perform a HW check for an automated environment.

I did a research but did not find any python library that performs this for common CAN interfaces, neither here in python-can. I have started a python module for this functionality, so in case there is no implementation here, I could support if you find it appropiate.

I think there is nothing concrete to do here. If you have a problem with a specific piece of hardware not being recognized, please open a specific issue.
