Accessing Windows from Linux
Project description
Accessing Windows from Linux
Retrieve a file (from Windows to Linux)
import pyndows
path_to_retrieved_file = ""
with pyndows.connect(...) as machine:
pyndows.get(machine, "shared_folder_name", "/folder/requested_file_name", path_to_retrieved_file)
Retrieve a file description (from Windows to Linux)
import pyndows
with pyndows.connect(...) as machine:
description = pyndows.get_file_desc(machine, "shared_folder_name", "/folder/requested_file_name")
Move a file (from Linux to Windows)
import pyndows
file_to_move_path = ""
with pyndows.connect(...) as machine:
pyndows.move(machine, "shared_folder_name", "/folder/destination_file_name", file_to_move_path)
You can also provide a custom suffix for the temporary file (.tmp is used by default) via the temp_file_suffix parameter.
Rename a file
import pyndows
with pyndows.connect(...) as machine:
pyndows.rename(machine, "shared_folder_name", "/folder/previous_file_name", "/folder/new_file_name")
Ensure connectivity
import pyndows
with pyndows.connect(...) as machine:
details = pyndows.check("connection identifier", machine)
Testing
You can mock remote connections by using samba_mock
pytest
fixture.
You can simulate every Samba connection behavior such as:
- Exceptions being thrown
- Connectivity issue
- echo responses
And of course, the following usual operations:
Simulate a file that can be retrieved
from pyndows.testing import samba_mock, SMBConnectionMock
def test_file_retrieval(samba_mock: SMBConnectionMock):
samba_mock.files_to_retrieve[("shared_folder_name", "/folder/file_to_retrieve")] = "File content of path to a file"
Ensure the content of a file that was moved or renamed
from pyndows.testing import samba_mock, SMBConnectionMock
def test_file_retrieval(samba_mock: SMBConnectionMock):
file_content = samba_mock.stored_files[("shared_folder_name", "/folder/file_that_was_stored")]
How to install
- python 3.6+ must be installed
