TH-CMD(1)							Triggerhappy daemon							 TH-CMD(1)

NAME

       th-cmd -- triggerhappy commander

SYNOPSIS

       th-cmd --socket <socket> [--passfd] [--tag <foo>] [--clear|--enable|--disable|--mode <mode>|--quit|--udev|--add <devices...>|--remove
       <devices...>]

DESCRIPTION

       This program is used to issue commands to a running triggerhappy daemon. It utilizes an unix domain socket bound by the daemon.

OPTIONS

       --socket socket
	   The socket file opened by the running triggerhappy daemon instance.

       --add <devices...>
	   Instruct the running daemon to open the input devices specified on the command line

       --remove <devices...>
	   Remove specified devices from the running daemon.

       --clear
	   Remove all devices from the running daemon.

       --udev
	   Deduce operation and device name from udev environment (for use in udev rules).

       --disable
	   Disable the execution of triggers.

       --enable
	   Re-enable the execution of triggers.

       --mode <newmode>
	   Change the mode of the triggerhappy daemon to <newmode>. If no new mode is specified, the daemon switches to default mode.

       --quit
	   Terminate the triggerhappy daemon.

       --passfd
	   Instead of instructing the daemon to open the device, open the device and pass the file descriptor to the daemon. This allows the
	   adding of new devices to a daemon having dropped its privileges, however the th-cmd process must have access to the device file.

       --grab
	   Grab the device; the triggerhappy daemon will try to get exclusive access to the device, other applications will not receive the events
	   emitted by it.

       --tag foo
	   Label the added device with the tag <foo>; this can be used to limit the scope of event handlers to a subset of input devices.
