✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the udevmon page 💖 this is the User Commands section of the manual, and we're about to get into it.

udevmon — monitor input devices for launching tasks 👀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

udevmon [-h | -c configuration.yaml]

like. that's it. that's the whole vibe. two ways in, pick one 🎀

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so what does it actually do?? it monitors input devices for launching tasks. yes queen, it's watching your devices so it can fire off tasks. main character energy fr fr ✨

here's the rundown on the flags:

  • -h — show this message and exit 🫶 (she's helpful AND she leaves when asked, we love boundaries)
  • -c configuration.yaml — use configuration.yaml as configuration 💖 like, "hey, use THIS file as the config, thanks"

also, not me forgetting to mention: /etc/interception/udevmon.d/*.yaml is also read if present 👑 so if that path has yaml files sitting in it, they get read too. no cap.

heads up bestie: -h and -c configuration.yaml are the two options in the synopsis, separated by a |, so it's giving "one or the other" energy 💀
