ASN.1 library for Python ------------------------ This is an implementation of ASN.1 types and codecs in Python programming language. It has been first written to support particular protocol (SNMP) but then generalized to be suitable for a wide range of protocols based on ASN.1 specification. FEATURES -------- * Generic implementation of ASN.1 types (X.208) * Fully standard compliant BER/CER/DER codecs * 100% Python, works with Python 2.4 up to Python 3.3 (beta 1) * MT-safe MISFEATURES ----------- * No ASN.1 compiler (by-hand ASN.1 spec compilation into Python code required) * Codecs are not restartable INSTALLATION ------------ The pyasn1 package uses setuptools/distutils for installation. Thus do either: $ easy_install pyasn1 or $ tar zxf pyasn1-0.1.3.tar.gz $ cd pyasn1-0.1.3 $ python setup.py install $ cd test $ python suite.py # run unit tests OPERATION --------- Perhaps a typical use would involve [by-hand] compilation of your ASN.1 specification into pyasn1-backed Python code at your application. For more information on pyasn1 APIs, please, refer to the doc/pyasn1-tutorial.html file in the distribution. Also refer to example modules. Take a look at pyasn1-modules package -- maybe it already holds something useful to you. AVAILABILITY ------------ The pyasn1 package is distributed under terms and conditions of BSD-style license. See LICENSE file in the distribution.
