About

The nisyscfg package contains an API (Application Programming Interface) for interacting with NI System Configuration. The package is implemented in Python. This package was created by NI. The package is implemented as a complex, highly object-oriented wrapper around the NI System Configuration C API using the ctypes Python library.

nisyscfg supports only the Windows and Linux operating systems.

nisyscfg supports CPython 3.9+.

Installation

Note: Running nisyscfg requires the NI System Configuration Runtime. Visit the ni.com/downloads to download the latest version of NI System Configuration.

Install nisyscfg from PyPI:

Or, install nisyscfg by cloning the main branch and running the following command in the directory of setup.py:

$ pip install --pre .

Usage

The following is a basic example of using an nisyscfg.Session object.

>>> import nisyscfg
>>> with nisyscfg.Session() as session:
>>>     # Print user aliases for all National Instruments devices in the local system
>>>     filter = session.create_filter()
>>>     filter.is_present = True
>>>     filter.is_ni_product = True
>>>     filter.is_device = True
>>>     for resource in session.find_hardware(filter):
>>>         print(resource.expert_user_alias[0])
