NAME

lt-gpiomon - manual page for lt-gpiomon v2.1.1

SYNOPSIS

lt-gpiomon [OPTIONS] <line>...

DESCRIPTION

Wait for events on GPIO lines and print them to standard output.

Lines are specified by name, or optionally by offset if the chip option is provided.

OPTIONS

display a banner on successful startup
-b, --bias <bias>
specify the line bias Possible values: 'pull-down', 'pull-up', 'disabled'. (default is to leave bias unchanged)
--by-name
treat lines as names even if they would parse as an offset
-c, --chip <chip>
restrict scope to a particular chip

-C, --consumer <name> consumer name applied to requested lines (default is 'gpiomon')

-e, --edges <edges>
specify the edges to monitor Possible values: 'falling', 'rising', 'both'. (default is 'both')
-E, --event-clock <clock>
specify the source clock for event timestamps Possible values: 'monotonic', 'realtime', 'hte'. (default is 'monotonic') By default 'realtime' is formatted as UTC, others as raw u64.
-h, --help
display this help and exit
-F, --format <fmt>
specify a custom output format
--idle-timeout <period>
exit gracefully if no events occur for the period specified
-l, --active-low
treat the line as active low, flipping the sense of rising and falling edges
--localtime
format event timestamps as local time
-n, --num-events <num>
exit after processing num events
-p, --debounce-period <period>
debounce the line(s) with the specified period
-q, --quiet
don't generate any output
-s, --strict
abort if requested line names are not unique
--unquoted
don't quote line or consumer names
--utc
format event timestamps as UTC (default for 'realtime')
-v, --version
output version information and exit

Chips:

A GPIO chip may be identified by number, name, or path. e.g. '0', 'gpiochip0', and '/dev/gpiochip0' all refer to the same chip.

Periods:

Periods are taken as milliseconds unless units are specified. e.g. 10us. Supported units are 's', 'ms', and 'us'.

Format specifiers:

%o
GPIO line offset
%l
GPIO line name
%c
GPIO chip name
%e
numeric edge event type ('1' - rising or '2' - falling)
%E
edge event type ('rising' or 'falling')
%S
event timestamp as seconds
%U
event timestamp as UTC
%L
event timestamp as local time
