USB HID programming

[GreenN00b]

Hello,

I am trying to create a program to work with USB HID devices.
Can anybody point out some documentation on how to work with HID devices on Ubuntu?

The program needs the following functionality:

detect hid devices
fetch device information
read from device
write to device
