pywinos 1.2.3

The cross-platform tool to execute PowerShell and command line remotely and locally.

PyWinOS

The cross-platform tool to work with remote and local Windows OS.

PyWinOS uses the Windows Remote Manager (WinRM) service. It can establish connection to a remote server based on Windows OS and execute commands:

• PowerShell
• Command line
• WMI.

It can execute commands locally using subprocess and command-line too.

For more information on WinRM, please visit Microsoft’s WinRM site It based on pywinrm.

PyWinOS returns object with exit code, stdout and sdtderr response.

Installation

For most users, the recommended method to install is via pip:

pip install pywinos

or from source:

python setup.py install

Usage (remote server)

Run PowerShell:

from pywinos import WinOSClient

tool = WinOSClient(host='172.16.0.126', username='administrator', password='rds123RDS', logger_enabled=True)
response = tool.run_ps(command='$PSVersionTable.PSVersion')

print(response)  
# ResponseParser(response=(0, 'Major  Minor  Build  Revision\r\n-----  -----  -----  --------\r\n5      1      17763  592', None, '$PSVersionTable.PSVersion'))
print(response.exited)  # 0
print(response.stdout)
# Major  Minor  Build  Revision
# -----  -----  -----  --------
# 5      1      17763  592

# stderr in PowerShell contains some text by default    
print(response.stderr)  # <Objs Version="1.1.0.1" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/powershell/2004/04"><Ob...
print(response.ok)  # True

Run command line:

from pywinos import WinOSClient

tool = WinOSClient('172.16.0.126', 'administrator', 'P@ssw0rd', logger_enabled=False)
response = tool.run_cmd(command='whoami')

print(response)  # <Response code 0, out "b'\r\nMajor  Minor  Build'", err "b''">
print(response.exited)  # 0
print(response.stdout)  # test-vm1\administrator
print(response.stderr)  # None
print(response.ok)  # True

Usage (local server)

Run command line:

from pywinos import WinOSClient

tool = WinOSClient(logger_enabled=False)
# tool = WinOSClient(host='', logger_enabled=False)
# tool = WinOSClient(host='localhost', logger_enabled=False)
# tool = WinOSClient(host='127.0.0.1', logger_enabled=False)
response = tool.run_cmd(command='whoami')

print(response)  # (0, b'mypc\\bobby\r\n', b'')
