Gufo Traceroute is the Python asyncio library for IPv4 traceroute. It consist of a clean Python API which hides all raw-socket manipulation details.

async with Traceroute() as tr:
    async for hop in tr.traceroute("8.8.8.8", tries=3):
        print(hop)

Unlike the others traceroute implementation, Gufo Traceroute works well in noisy environments, i.e. on hosts generating and receiving large volumes of ICMP traffic.

On Gufo Stack

This product is a part of Gufo Stack - the collaborative effort led by Gufo Labs. Our goal is to create a robust and flexible set of tools to create network management software and automate routine administration tasks.

To do this, we extract the key technologies that have proven themselves in the NOC and bring them as separate packages. Then we work on API, performance tuning, documentation, and testing. The NOC uses the final result as the external dependencies.

Gufo Stack makes the NOC better, and this is our primary task. But other products can benefit from Gufo Stack too. So we believe that our effort will make the other network management products better.
