Java PCI IDs database

A library to parse the PCI IDs database file and make its contents available. See The PCI ID Repository for details.

Add as project dependency

To use this library in your project simply add this to your Maven pom.xml.

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.marandus</groupId>
    <artifactId>pci-ids</artifactId>
    <version>0.3</version>
</dependency>

This library should be available via Maven Central. If you are unable to obtain it from there, you may build and install it into your local Maven repository by using the following commands.

git clone [email protected]:marandus/pci-ids.git
cd pci-ids
git checkout pci-ids-0.3
mvn install

Usage

First, a new database instance must be created and filled with PCI ID information. The easiest way to do this is by downloading the pci.ids file from the default location.

PciIdsDatabase db = new PciIdsDatabase();
db.loadRemote();

If no internet access is available, the pci.ids file can either be retrieved from a custom URI or a local file.

// Load pci.ids from custom URI
PciIdsDatabase db = new PciIdsDatabase();
URI customUri = URI.create("http://example.com/pci.ids");
db.loadRemote(customUri);

// Load pci.ids from local file
PciIdsDatabase db = new PciIdsDatabase();
InputStream is = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("pci.ids");
db.loadStream(is);

Once a database file was loaded and processed by the PciIdsDatabase class, the database is ready to be queried. For example to retrieve all devices manufactured by Intel Corporation (Vendor ID: 8086), use the following code.

List<Device> devs = db.findAllDevices("8086");

The whole database is read-only, it is not possible to modify any maps, lists or entries accessible from outside the library.
