Project description

https://travis-ci.org/johnthagen/pytap2.svg?branch=master https://codeclimate.com/github/johnthagen/pytap2/badges/gpa.svg https://codeclimate.com/github/johnthagen/pytap2/badges/issue_count.svg https://codecov.io/github/johnthagen/pytap2/coverage.svg https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/pytap2.svg https://img.shields.io/pypi/status/pytap2.svg https://img.shields.io/pypi/pyversions/pytap2.svg

Fork of PyTap that supports Python 2 & 3.

Installation

You can install, upgrade, and uninstall pytap2 with these commands:

$ pip install pytap2
$ pip install --upgrade pytap2
$ pip uninstall pytap2

Usage

Using as a context manager automatically brings up the device and closes it at the end of the with block.

from pytap2 import TapDevice

with TapDevice() as device:
    device.ifconfig(mtu=1300)
    device.write(b'0000')

Or manually call up() and close().

from pytap2 import TapDevice

device = TapDevice()
device.up()
device.ifconfig(mtu=1300)
device.write(b'0000')
device.close()

The fileno() method is defined, so that the device object can be passed directly to select().
