openocd-python
Typed, async-first Python bindings for the full OpenOCD command surface.
Install
pip install openocd-python
Quick Start
from openocd import Session
# Connect to a running OpenOCD instance
async with Session.connect() as ocd:
state = await ocd.target.halt()
pc = await ocd.registers.pc()
mem = await ocd.memory.read_u32(0x08000000, 4)
print(f"PC: {pc:#x}")
# Or spawn OpenOCD and connect
async with Session.start("interface/cmsis-dap.cfg -f target/stm32f1x.cfg") as ocd:
await ocd.target.halt()
regs = await ocd.registers.read_all()
# Synchronous API available too
with Session.start_sync("interface/cmsis-dap.cfg") as ocd:
ocd.target.halt()
print(f"PC: {ocd.registers.pc():#x}")
Features
- Async-first with sync wrappers for every method
- Typed returns — dataclasses, not raw strings
- Full OpenOCD surface: target control, memory, registers, flash, JTAG, breakpoints, RTT
- SVD decoding — read a peripheral register and get named bitfields
- Process management — spawn and manage OpenOCD subprocesses
- Dual transport — TCL RPC (primary) and telnet (fallback)
Requirements
- Python 3.11+
- OpenOCD installed and on PATH (or pass
openocd_bin=)
