pykitinfo 1.1.2.19

pykitinfo
pykitinfo provides information about connected Microchip development kits and tools
Overview
pykitinfo will scan the USB subsystem for connected Microchip development kits, and provide information such as kit name, mounted device, serial port identifier, and extension information.
pykitinfo is available:

install using pip from pypi: https://pypi.org/project/pykitinfo
browse source code on github: https://github.com/microchip-pic-avr-tools/pykitinfo
read API documentation on github: https://microchip-pic-avr-tools.github.io/pykitinfo

pykitinfo currently supports:

all PKOB nano (nEDBG), mEDBG and EDBG kits
Atmel-ICE, Power Debugger, JTAGICE3
PICkit3, PKOB
PICkit4, Snap, PKOB4, PICkit5
MCP2221A

Usage
pykitinfo can be used as a library or as a CLI
Example - simple list of connected kits
pykitinfo

Displays a simple list of kits in the form:
Kit SERIAL-NUMBER: 'KIT-NAME' (DEVICE-NAME) on SERIAL-PORT
For example:
pykitinfo
Looking for Microchip kits...
Compatible kits detected: 8
Kit MCHP3349011800000000: 'AVR-IoT WA' (ATmega4808) on COM21
Kit MCHP3280021800000000: 'AVR128DA48 Curiosity Nano' (AVR128DA48) on COM17
Kit ATML2241020200000000: 'SAM L21 Xplained Pro' (ATSAML21J18A) on COM34
Kit J41800000000: 'Atmel-ICE CMSIS-DAP' () on N/A
Kit J50200000000: 'Power Debugger CMSIS-DAP' () on N/A
Kit ATML2323040200000000: 'mEDBG' (ATmega328P) on COM26
Kit BUR180115004: 'Explorer 16/32 PICkit on Board' () on N/A
Kit 020063002RYN000091: 'Curiosity Nano Explorer' (N/A) on COM74

Example - simple list of connected kits with specific serial number
pykitinfo -s <serialnumber ending>

Displays a simple list of kits in the form:
Kit SERIAL-NUMBER: 'KIT-NAME' (DEVICE-NAME) on SERIAL-PORT
For example:
pykitinfo -s 29
Looking for Microchip kits...
Compatible kits detected: 1
Kit MCHP3352011800000029: 'PIC-IoT WA' (PIC24FJ128GA705) on COM22

Example - brief lookup of serial port of connected kit
pykitinfo -b

Displays ONLY the serial port name of a connected kit. This can be useful for command chaining.
For example:
pykitinfo -b -s 123456
COM12

Example - long form list of kits
pykitinfo -l

Displays a JSON formatted list of dictionaries.
For example:
pykitinfo -l

# Example: using pykitinfo as a library
import logging
logging.basicConfig(format="%(levelname)s: %(message)s", level=logging.ERROR)
from pykitinfo import pykitinfo
kits = pykitinfo.detect_all_kits()
for kit in kits:
print("Found kit: '{}'".format(kit['debugger']['kitname']))

Notes for Linux® systems
This package uses pyedbglib and other libraries for USB transport and some udev rules are required. For details see the pyedbglib package: https://pypi.org/project/pyedbglib
