In the TemperDevice class, the ports attribute is initialised to the port number. The naming here is somewhat contradictory - namely that a plural ('ports') is assigned a single number.
That aside, it's possible for two or more TEMPer devices to show the same bus and port number and get the following output:
root@c57c6ac4408a:/# temper-poll -p
Found 2 devices
Device #0 (bus 2 - port 2): 30.5°C 86.9°F
Device #1 (bus 2 - port 2): 33.1°C 91.6°F
I did this by having a setup like the following:
- hub
- TEMPer device
- hub
- TEMPer device
It would therefore make sense to add a --disp_address argument on the command line which would show the device address since this is unique per usb bus. In this way you could have the following:
root@c57c6ac4408a:/# temper-poll -p
Found 2 devices
Device #0 (bus 2 - address 30 port 2): 30.5°C 86.9°F
Device #1 (bus 2 - address 31 port 2): 33.1°C 91.6°F
Is this something you would consider adding?
An alternative would be to update the existing display to show the full port address tuple which is available from the Device.port_numbers attribute. In which case, you would get something like:
root@c57c6ac4408a:/# temper-poll -p
Found 2 devices
Device #0 (bus 2 - port 1.2.2): 30.5°C 86.9°F
Device #1 (bus 2 - port 1.2.1.2): 33.1°C 91.6°F
