Object-oriented wrapper around the Linux Tun/Tap device for Python 2 and 3
Project description
Fork of PyTap that supports Python 3.
Installation
You can install, upgrade, and uninstall pytap2 with these commands:
$ pip install pytap2 $ pip install --upgrade pytap2 $ pip uninstall pytap2
Usage
Using as a context manager automatically brings up the device and closes it at the end of the with block.
from pytap2 import TapDevice with TapDevice() as device: device.ifconfig(mtu=1300) device.write(b'0000')
Or manually call up() and close().
from pytap2 import TapDevice device = TapDevice() device.up() device.ifconfig(mtu=1300) device.write(b'0000') device.close()
The fileno() method is defined, so that the device object can be passed directly to select().
