AWS IoT SDK based on the AWS Common Runtime

Project description

AWS IoT Device SDK v2 for Python

Version

This document provides information about the AWS IoT Device SDK v2 for Python.

If you have any issues or feature requests, please file an issue or pull request.

API documentation: https://aws.github.io/aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2/

This SDK is built on the AWS Common Runtime, a collection of libraries (aws-c-common, aws-c-io, aws-c-mqtt, aws-c-compression, aws-c-http, aws-c-cal, aws-c-auth, s2n ...) written in C to be cross-platform, high-performance, secure, and reliable. The libraries are bound to Python by the awscrt package (PyPI) (Github).

Installation

Minimum Requirements

  • Python 3.7+

Step-by-step instructions

Install from PyPI

MacOS and Linux:

python3 -m pip install awsiotsdk

Windows:

python -m pip install awsiotsdk

Install from source

# 1. Create a workspace directory to hold all the SDK files
mkdir sdk-workspace
cd sdk-workspace

# 2. Clone the repository. You could select the version of the SDK you desire to use.
git clone -b <SDK_VERSION> https://github.com/aws/aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2.git

# 3. (Optional) Setup the version number of your local build. The default version for awsiotsdk is set to "1.0.0-dev", you can set the version number of the local build in "aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2/awsiot/__init__.py"
sed -i "s/__version__ = '1.0.0-dev'/__version__ = '<SDK_VERSION>'/" aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2/awsiot/__init__.py

# 4. Install using Pip (use 'python' instead of 'python3' on Windows)
python3 -m pip install ./aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2

Installation Issues

awsiotsdk depends on awscrt, which makes use of C extensions. Precompiled wheels are downloaded when installing on major platforms (Mac, Windows, Linux, Raspberry Pi OS). If wheels are unavailable for your platform, your machine must compile some C libraries. For example:

# 1. Create a workspace directory to hold all the CRT files
mkdir crt-workspace
cd crt-workspace

# 2. Clone the repository, you could select the version you would like to use. You can find the awscrt version used by the current SDK from the file "./aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2/setup.py". Update the version number in "./aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2/setup.py" can change the awscrt version you would like to use in awsiotsdk
git clone -b <CRT_VERSION> https://github.com/awslabs/aws-crt-python.git

# 3. Update the submodules
cd aws-crt-python
git submodule update --init --recursive

# 4. (Optional) Setup the version number of your local build. Similar to the awsiotsdk, the default version for awscrt is set to "1.0.0-dev", you can set the version number of the local build in "./aws-crt-python/awscrt/__init__.py". The awscrt version set here need to match the version specified in "./aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2/setup.py" so that the awsiotsdk could locate the correct awscrt library.
sed -i "s/__version__ = '1.0.0.dev0'/__version__ = '<CRT_VERSION>'/" awscrt/__init__.py

# 5. Install using Pip
python3 -m pip install .

If you need aws-crt-python to use the libcrypto included on your system, set environment variable AWS_CRT_BUILD_USE_SYSTEM_LIBCRYPTO=1 while building from source:

AWS_CRT_BUILD_USE_SYSTEM_LIBCRYPTO=1 python3 -m pip install --no-binary :all: --verbose awscrt

( --no-binary :all: ensures you do not use the precompiled wheel from PyPI)

If you encounter issues, see Installation Issues and try again.
