can we print the attr{} also ?

can we print the attr{} also ?

[J. Bakshi]

Hello,

With the help of "udevadm monitor --environment" I can find the following when inserting my usb pendrive

````````````````````````````
ID_VENDOR_ENC=JetFlash
ID_VENDOR_ID\x058f
ID_MODEL=Transcend_8GB
ID_MODEL_ENC=Transcend\x208GB\x20\x20\x20
ID_MODEL_IDc87
ID_REVISION=8.07
ID_SERIAL=JetFlash_Transcend_8GB_MTIKD5C1-0:0
ID_SERIAL_SHORT=MTIKD5C1
````````````````````````

Can I send these information through notify-send ? I have already tried with [  notify-send %d-%k-$attr{ID_VENDOR} ] and the $attr{ID_VENDOR} is blank.  

I have also tried with "udevadm  info -a -p  /sys/block/sdc" and foound

`````````````````
 ATTRS{vendor}="JetFlash"
 ATTRS{model}="Transcend 8GB
```````````````````````

using these as $attr{vendor} also has no effect. 

Could anyone kindly give me a clue please ?
Thanks

ID_VENDOR is an udev propery, not a sysfs attribute. Try
$env{ID_VENDOR} instead.

Presumably the vendor attribute is not on the parent node that you
matched with KERNELS, SUBSYSTEMS, DRIVERS, or ATTRS test? (see man
udev).
