NAME

gpiomon - manual page for gpiomon v2.1

SYNOPSIS

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
specify the line bias Possible values: 'pull-down', 'pull-up', 'disabled'. (default is to leave bias unchanged)
treat lines as names even if they would parse as an offset
restrict scope to a particular chip

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

specify the edges to monitor Possible values: 'falling', 'rising', 'both'. (default is 'both')
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.
display this help and exit
specify a custom output format
exit gracefully if no events occur for the period specified
treat the line as active low, flipping the sense of rising and falling edges
format event timestamps as local time
exit after processing num events
debounce the line(s) with the specified period
don't generate any output
abort if requested line names are not unique
don't quote line or consumer names
format event timestamps as UTC (default for 'realtime')
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
