owdir owread owwrite and owget are collectively called the owshell programs. They allow lightweight access to an owserver (1) for use in command line scripts.
Unlike owserver (1) owhttpd (1) owftpd (1) owhttpd (1) there is not persistent connection with the 1-wire bus, no caching and no multithreading. Instead, each program connects to a running owserver (1) and performs a quick set of queries.
owserver (1) performs the actual 1-wire connection (to physical 1-wire buses or other owserver programs), performs concurrency locking, caching, and error collection.
owshell programs are intended for use in command line scripts. An alternative approach is to mount an owfs (1) filesystem and perform direct file lists, reads and writes.
owdir performs a directory listing. With no argument, all the devices on the main 1-wire bus will be listed. Given the name of a 1-wire device, the available properties will be listed. It is the equivalent of
ls directory
in the owfs (1) filesystem.
owread obtains for value of a 1-wire device property. e.g. 28.0080BE21AA00/temperature gives the DS18B20 temperature. It is the equivalent of
cat filepath
in the owfs (1) filesystem.
owwrite performs a change of a property, changing a 1-wire device setting or writing to memory. It is the equivalent of
echo value > filepath
in the owfs (1) filesystem.
owget (1) is a convenience program, combining the function of owdir (1) and owread (1) by first trying to read the argument as a directory, and if that fails as a 1-wire property.
Find an owserver using the Service Discovery protocol. Essentially Apple’s Bonjour (aka zeroconf). Only the first owserver will be used, and that choice is probably arbitrary.
Connect via tcp (network) to an owserver process that is connected to a physical 1-wire bus. This allows multiple processes to share the same bus. The owserver process can be local or remote.
If the server option is not specified, the default is the local machine and the IANA allocated default port of 4304. Thus "−s localhost:4304" is the equivalent.
Hexadecimal mode. For reading data, each byte of character will be displayed as two characrters 0-9ABCDEF. Most useful for reading memory locations. No spaces between data.
Writing data in hexadecimal mode just means that the data should be given as one long hexadecimal string.
Read or write memory locations starting at the offset byte rather than the beginning. An offset of 0 means the beginning (and is the default).
Read up to the specified number of bytes of a memory location.

Version of this program.
Modify the display of directories to indicate which entries are also directories. A directory member will have a trailing ’/’ if it is a directory itself. This aids recursive searches.
Display format for the 1-wire devices. Each device has a 8 byte address, consisting of:
|
f |
family code, 1 byte |
|||
|
i |
ID number, 6 bytes |
|||
|
c |
CRC checksum, 1 byte |
Possible formats are f.i (default, 01.A1B2C3D4E5F6), fi fic f.ic f.i.c and fi.c
All formats are accepted as input, but the output will be in the specified format.
owdir −s 3000 −−format fic
Get the device listing (full 16 hex digits, no dots) from the local owserver at port 3000
owread −F −−autoserver 51.125499A32000/typeK/temperature
Read temperature from the DS2751-based thermocouple on an auto-discovered owserver Temperature in fahrenheit.
owwrite −s 10.0.1.2:3001 32.000800AD23110/pages/page.1 "Passed"
Connect to a OWFS server process ( owserver ) that was started on another machine at tcp port 3001 and write to the memory of a DS2780
