Unofficial Library

REST SMS Gateway allows to change your phone into a powerful SMS Gateway which you can control from a computer.

Getting Started

Note: The computer (that will run the script) and your phone have to be connected on the same network. Android only!

First of all, you have to install Rest SMS Gateway on your Android phone.

Open the app and press the start button. You'll need the IP address shown in there (e.g, http://172.16.19.77:8080).

Installing

Easy-peasy! You only need to run one command

pip install rest-sms-gateway

Running the tests

Note: My mistake!

We don't have test yet.

Examples

Import and configure the client:

>>> from rest_sms_gateway import SMSGatewayClient 
>>> client = SMSGatewayClient('http://172.16.19.77:8080')

Now, you can do what you want (or almost)!

Let's list all conversations available in the mobile phone:

>>> client.get_thread() 

#OUTPUT
# {'threads': [{'timestamps': {'update': '1544785173349'}, '_id': '95'},
# {'timestamps': {'update': '1544751618760'}, '_id': '94'},
# {'timestamps': {'update': '1544751384521'}, '_id': '93'},
# {'timestamps': {'update': '1544115829308'}, '_id': '92'},
# {'timestamps': {'update': '1543572583029'}, '_id': '91'},
# {'timestamps': {'update': '1543275852269'}, '_id': '90'},
# {'timestamps': {'update': '1544204987635'}, '_id': '89'},
# {'timestamps': {'update': '1541087704128'}, '_id': '88'},
# {'timestamps': {'update': '1540053558537'}, '_id': '87'},
# {'timestamps': {'update': '1539808989397'}, '_id': '86'}],
# 'size': 10,
# 'limit': '10',
# 'offset': '0'}


>>> client.get_thread(limit=2) 

#OUTPUT
# {'threads': [{'timestamps': {'update': '1544785173349'}, '_id': '95'},
# {'timestamps': {'update': '1544751618760'}, '_id': '94'}],
# 'size': 2,
# 'limit': '2',
# 'offset': '0'}

And now, send a message!

>>> sender = client.send_sms('[phone]', 'Your first message') # Single SMS
>>> if sender['ok']: # or sender['status_code'] == 200
...     print('Message sent!')

# OR

>>> friends_numbers = ['[phone]', '[phone]', '[phone]']
>>> for friend in friends_numbers: # Bulk SMS 
...     client.send_sms(friend, "Hey, let's play BroForce!")

Attention

If you're trying to send lot of messages at once, read this article about "Messaging is sending a large amount of messages".

In my tests, this notification only appears after sending 30 messages. An alternative way out for this is:

>>> from rest_sms_gateway import SMSGatewayClient
>>> import time
>>> client = SMSGatewayClient('http://172.16.19.77:8080')
>>> for msg_number in range(60):
...     client.send_sms('[phone]', 'Your msg here!')
...     if (msg_number+1) % 30 == 0:
...         # Every 30 messages, an interval of 30 seconds is given
...         time.sleep(30)
...     else:
...         # An interval of 1.5 seconds is given for each message
...         time.sleep(1.5)

Also be careful with your phone carrier, they may be slow with the high demand for messages and/or send the messages out of order.
