A python parser for iwlist output
Project description
iw_parse
Parse the output of iwlist scan to get the name, address, quality, channel, and encryption type of all networks broadcasting within your Wireless NIC's reach.
Dependencies
- pip - If you don't have pip installed, followed the link.
Installation
pip install iw_parse
Usage
iwlist <INTERFACE_NAME> scan | iw_parse
Replace <INTERFACE_NAME>
with the system name for your wireless NIC. It is usually something like wlan0
. The command iwconfig
will list all of your network interfaces.
Example:
iwlist wlan0 scan | iw_parse
The result should look something like:
Name Address Quality Channel Encryption
wireless1 20:AA:4B:34:2C:F5 100 % 11 WEP
wireless2 00:26:F2:1E:FC:03 84 % 1 WPA v.1
wireless3 00:1D:D3:6A:3C:60 66 % 6 WEP
wireless4 20:10:7A:E5:02:98 64 % 1 WEP
wireless5 CC:A4:62:B7:D2:B0 54 % 8 WPA v.1
wireless6 30:46:9A:53:3C:76 47 % 11 WPA v.1
wireless7 A0:21:B7:5F:84:B0 44 % 11 WEP
wireless8 04:A1:51:18:E8:E0 41 % 6 WPA v.1
Example from Python shell:
>>> import iw_parse
>>> networks = iw_parse.get_interfaces(interface='wlan0')
>>> print networks
