This is an utility to easily list USB devices in Mac OS X, just like the lsusb command in Linux. It leverages the data from the system_profiler SPUSBDataType built-in command available in Mac. You can type lsusb -v to get the unmodified output of system_profiler SPUSBDataType.
To install, clone the repository and copy to a location available in your PATH, for example sudo cp lsusb /usr/sbin.
You can also install it with Homebrew๐ป using my Tap:
brew update && brew install laniksj/tap/lsusb-plusor from official Homebrew๐ป Tap:
brew update && brew install lsusb-laniksjHere's an output example:
