ispyisail d392ab4b8f Let misc/spacemouse-capture.py record on Windows, and say how on each system
Windows reads the device through hid.dll and SetupAPI with ctypes, as
hidapi's Windows backend does: shared, so 3DxWare can keep running, and
dropping the 0 report ID Windows adds, as hidapi does, so the bytes are
the ones QET decodes. Windows does not give out the report descriptor,
so a Windows recording has none; tst_spacemousehid then uses its
fallback layout.

The docstring, printed in full by --help, now has step-by-step
instructions for Linux, macOS and Windows, download included.

Tested: Windows Python 3.12 (embeddable) under Wine 10, against the
virtual uhid 3D mouse: --list finds it, a push sent during `right`
lands in `right`, and a button press and release land in `buttons`,
with the same bytes the Linux path records for the same push. Linux
and the mocked macOS path still pass.

r"""Record raw USB reports from a 3Dconnexion 3D mouse, for QElectroTech.
QElectroTech's Windows/macOS 3D mouse support reads the device directly
over USB, so it has to decode each device model's raw reports itself.
This records what your device sends while you make a few guided
movements, and saves it to one file you can attach to discussion #599.
Nothing is sent anywhere. One recording per device model is enough, from
any of the three systems: the device sends the same reports on all of them.
It takes about two minutes. Each step says what to do: press Enter, make
the movement and hold it until the next prompt. Push firmly.
Linux
Python 3 is already installed.
1. Download: curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qelectrotech/qelectrotech-source-mirror/master/misc/spacemouse-capture.py
2. List: sudo python3 spacemouse-capture.py --list
3. Record: sudo python3 spacemouse-capture.py --seconds 3
If --list shows several devices (a Logitech receiver shows up as
several), add --device /dev/hidrawN with the 3D mouse's line.
sudo is needed because /dev/hidraw* is readable by root only.
spacenavd can keep running; if the recording comes out empty, stop it
(sudo systemctl stop spacenavd) and try again.
macOS
Python 3 comes with the Xcode command line tools; if "python3" asks
to install them, accept. Open Terminal, then:
1. Download: curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qelectrotech/qelectrotech-source-mirror/master/misc/spacemouse-capture.py
2. Record: python3 spacemouse-capture.py --seconds 3
No sudo. If it says another program holds the device, quit 3DxWare
(or uninstall it) and try again. If it says macOS refused access,
allow Terminal in System Settings > Privacy & Security > Input
Monitoring, and try again. (Rather not use Terminal? The SpaceMouse
Check app does the same with a window: see discussion #599.)
Windows
Install Python 3 from https://www.python.org/downloads/ (tick "Add
python.exe to PATH") or from the Microsoft Store. Open a Command
Prompt (Windows key, type cmd, Enter), then:
1. cd %USERPROFILE%\Downloads
2. Download: curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qelectrotech/qelectrotech-source-mirror/master/misc/spacemouse-capture.py
3. Record: python spacemouse-capture.py --seconds 3
No administrator rights needed, and 3DxWare can keep running.
Windows does not give out the device's report descriptor, so a
recording made on Linux or macOS is a little more complete.
Every system
--list only show the 3D mice found
--device PATH pick one, if several are found (a path from --list)
--seconds N multiply the time per step (3 triples it)
-o FILE where to save (default: spacemouse-capture-<id>.json)
The file is saved in the current folder: attach it to discussion #599.
Only Python's standard library is used.
