This library doesn't make use of cgo and "C" package, so it's a pure go library
|
||||
that can be easily cross compiled.

If a port is a virutal USB-CDC serial port (an USB-to-RS232 cable or a
|
||||
microcontroller development board are typical examples) is possible to
|
||||
retrieve the USB metadata, like VID/PID or USB Serial Number, with the
|

GetDetailedPortsList function:
|
||||
|
||||
ports, err := serial.GetDetailedPortsList()
|
||||
if err != nil {
|

log.Fatal(err)
|

fmt.Println("No serial ports found!")

fmt.Printf("Found port: %s\n", port.Name)

if port.IsUSB {

fmt.Printf(" USB ID %s:%s\n", port.VID, port.PID)
