utmp/wtmp reader
Project description
Pure-Python library to decode/read utmp and wtmp files. Please note that there is an alternative library which uses the underlying C API: pyutmp
This package requires Python 3.4.
Usage
The utmp.read function decodes a binary utmp/wtmp stream and yields record objects:
with open('/var/log/wtmp', 'rb') as fd:
buf = fd.read()
for entry in utmp.read(buf):
print(entry.time, entry.type, entry)
