sensors-asus-ec

This script provides sensor data for the ASUS Dark Hero through the ec_sys debug interface. This is intended as a workaround until proper kernel support is implemented. Enhancements/fixes are welcome.

Requirements

• Python 3 with the daemonize module.
• The kernel module ec_sys must be loaded.
• Root privileges to read the data. Script can be run as a daemon which then listens on a local port. From there a regular user can run and data will be read from the daemon.

Usage

Argument	Description
-h	Help
-d	Run as daemon
-f	If running daemon, run in foregroud
-p	Path to PID file, defaults to '/var/run/sensors-asus-ec.pid'
-P	Port to listen or connect. defauls to 2787
