gatenet
Gatenet is a Python toolkit for networking: diagnostics (ping, traceroute, DNS, ports), simple HTTP/TCP/UDP building blocks, service discovery, and Wi‑Fi hotspot management. It now includes a lightweight hooks system for easy extensibility.
Install
pip install gatenet
Python 3.10+ • Linux/macOS/Windows (feature availability varies by platform)
Highlights
- Diagnostics: ICMP/TCP ping, traceroute, port scan, DNS, IP geolocation
- HTTP/TCP/UDP: minimal server/client utilities
- Discovery: pluggable detectors with a registry
- Hotspot: create/manage Wi‑Fi access points (Linux/macOS)
- Hooks: shared event bus across modules (HTTP, clients, discovery, diagnostics)
Quick start
HTTP server
from gatenet.http_.server import HTTPServerComponent
server = HTTPServerComponent(host="127.0.0.1", port=8080)
@server.route("/status", method="GET")
def status(_req):
return {"ok": True}
server.start()
HTTP client
from gatenet.http_.client import HTTPClient
client = HTTPClient("http://127.0.0.1:8080")
res = client.get("/status")
print(res["data"]) # {"ok": True}
TCP / UDP
from gatenet.client.tcp import TCPClient
from gatenet.client.udp import UDPClient
# TCP
tcp = TCPClient("127.0.0.1", 9000)
tcp.connect()
print(tcp.send("ping"))
tcp.close()
# UDP
udp = UDPClient("127.0.0.1", 9001)
print(udp.send("ping"))
udp.close()
Diagnostics
from gatenet.diagnostics import ping
from gatenet.diagnostics.traceroute import traceroute
print(ping("1.1.1.1", count=2))
print(traceroute("example.com"))
Discovery
from gatenet.discovery.ssh import _identify_service
print(_identify_service(22, "SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_8.9p1"))
Hotspot (platform-dependent)
from gatenet.hotspot import Hotspot
hotspot = Hotspot(ssid="GatenetAP", password="SecurePass123!")
if hotspot.start():
print("running")
hotspot.stop()
Hooks & events
from gatenet.core import hooks, events
hooks.on(events.HTTP_BEFORE_REQUEST, lambda req: print("HTTP", req.command, req.path))
