Bring your Logitech G29 Racing Wheel into the wonderful world of Node.
- Subscribe to wheel, pedal, and shifter events.
- Activate simple force feedback effects.
- Set wheel auto-centering and range.
- Customize shift indicator LEDs.
Node version 10.16 or greater.
Make sure the Logitech G29 mode switch is set to PS3. The switch is located above the middle of the steering wheel.
This library uses node-hid behind the scenes. Depending on your OS and Node version, you may have an effortless install. If not, you may want to consult node-hid's compiling from source guide for assistance.
npm install logitech-g29
Windows users who are having trouble connecting to a wheel may need to run the Logitech G Hub software one time to setup drivers.
Ubuntu users will most likely want to remove the sudo requirement of interfacing with the wheel. This can be accomplished by creating a file at /etc/udev/rules.d/99-hidraw-permissions.rules with the following code. After saving the file, reboot and then you can move on to more fun tasks.
KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev"
Let's have some fun and make our wheel LEDs light up when we press the gas pedal.
const g = require('logitech-g29')
g.connect(function(err) {
g.on('pedals-gas', function(val) {
g.leds(val)
})
})Vroom vroom sounds optional but encouraged. ^_^
