DVEO REST API wrapper for Python

This module tries to make using the DVEO_ REST API easier to use with Python.

Example of usage:

.. code:: python

from dveo import API dveo = API('203.0.113.12', 'p455w0rd') dveo.system_status()['system']['uptime'] OrderedDict([('days', '20'), ('hours', '7'), ('mins', '51')]) dveo.list_inputs() ['net_stream1', 'net_stream2', 'net_stream3', 'net_stream4', ...] dveo.input_config('net_stream2')['inputname'] 'BigTV' dveo.input_by_output_param('rtmptargeturi', 'acme', partial=True, include_value=True) [('net_stream1', 'rtmp://vid1.acme.net/stream'), ('net_stream2', 'rtmp://stream10.acme.com/rtmp'), ('net_stream3', 'rtmp://stream11.acme.com/rtmp'), ...]
