bssid = 'ab:cd:ef:12:34:56'
rssi = -60

request = skyhook.SkyhookRequest()
request.addAccessPoint(bssid.replace(':', ''), rssi)

connection = skyhook.SkyhookConnection(key=key, userID=userID)
response = connection.performRequest(request)

if response.status != 'Ok':
        print('Error:', response.status)
else:
        print('Response: ', response.coordinate)

Command line client

In the test directory you’ll find a command line client to test if everything works:

$ python cmdline_client.py --help
