See USB infos in termux wiki;

• example code and termux-usb reference

List connected USB devices and get ID:

termux-usb -l

Run script (test) with selected device:

termux-usb -r -e ./usbtest_rw1.py.sh /dev/bus/usb/001/002

Working with Python 3.8.

Theoretically only needs PyUSB. Enganced with IPython, PyFtdi (two formatting functions). Style check and formatting with Flake8 and Black.

Create environment:

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

• Android restricts device access, see comments on libusb
• Termux only provides a file descriptor (probably queried from Android)
• device handles etc. have to be retrieved from a single file descriptor
• my module usblib.py provides a function device_from_fd(fd) that extends the PyUSB 1.0 library to provide a Device object from a file descriptor number that can be used as usual

• own implementation, guided by:
  • pySerial, Timeout object, inspiration for read_until etc., only CP2110 handling (with another backend library hid)
  • UsbSerial, command codes & logic flow, adopted from java implementation; flow control untested (how?)
• only tested with cp2102 usb-ttl board v4.2 device
  • throughput, performance unknown, (seems to work for me)
  • flow control (RTS/CTS, DTR/DSR, Xon/Xoff) untested
  • does transmission have to be in chunks, with size reported in endpoint info or does the libusb1 library handles this? - works fine with chunks, but may drop in performance for heavy use?
  • sync writing?, can a chunk be transmitted in part only (read/write)?
  • no interrupting of transmissions
• test scripts supplied for various simple situations; tests currently only with connected device
• example usage script for DSO138mini data dumps

Hopefully my fix can be adopted in the original PyUSB library. Else, free for all. :-)
