uPnPclient
============

_uPnP client library for Python 3._

This library can be used to discover and consume uPnP devices and their services.

It's originally based on [Ferry Boender's work](https://github.com/fboender/pyupnpclient) and his blog post entitled [Exploring UPnP with Python](https://www.electricmonk.nl/log/2016/07/05/exploring-upnp-with-python/).

### Installation

```bash
pip install upnpclient
```

### Usage

Typical usage:

```python
In [1]: import upnpclient

In [2]: devices = upnpclient.discover()

In [3]: devices
Out[3]:
[,
,
]

In [4]: d = devices[0]

In [5]: d.WANIPConn1.GetStatusInfo()
Out[5]:
{'NewConnectionStatus': 'Connected',
'NewLastConnectionError': 'ERROR_NONE',
'NewUptime': 14851479}

In [6]: d.WANIPConn1.GetNATRSIPStatus()
Out[6]: {'NewNATEnabled': True, 'NewRSIPAvailable': False}

In [7]: d.WANIPConn1.GetExternalIPAddress()
Out[7]: {'NewExternalIPAddress': '123.123.123.123'}
```

If you know the URL for the device description XML, you can access it directly.

```python
In [1]: import upnpclient

In [2]: d = upnpclient.Device("http://192.168.1.1:5000/rootDesc.xml")

In [3]: d.services
Out[3]:
[,
,
]

In [4]: d.Layer3Forwarding1.actions
Out[4]:
[,
]

In [5]: d.Layer3Forwarding1.GetDefaultConnectionService()
Out[5]: {'NewDefaultConnectionService': 'uuid:46cb370a-d7f2-490f-ac01-fb0db6c8b22b:WANConnectionDevice:1,urn:upnp-org:serviceId:WANIPConn1'}
```

Sometimes the service or action name isn't a valid property name. In which case, service and actions can be accessed other ways:

```python
In [1]: d["Layer3Forwarding1"]["GetDefaultConnectionService"]()
Out[1]: {'NewDefaultConnectionService': 'uuid:46cb370a-d7f2-490f-ac01-fb0db6c8b22b:WANConnectionDevice:1,urn:upnp-org:serviceId:WANIPConn1'}
```

To view the arguments required to call a given action:

```python
In [1]: d.WANIPConn1.AddPortMapping.argsdef_in
Out[1]:
[('NewRemoteHost',
{'allowed_values': set(), 'datatype': 'string', 'name': 'RemoteHost'}),
('NewExternalPort',
{'allowed_values': set(), 'datatype': 'ui2', 'name': 'ExternalPort'}),
('NewProtocol',
{'allowed_values': {'TCP', 'UDP'},
'datatype': 'string',
'name': 'PortMappingProtocol'}),
('NewInternalPort',
{'allowed_values': set(), 'datatype': 'ui2', 'name': 'InternalPort'}),
('NewInternalClient',
{'allowed_values': set(), 'datatype': 'string', 'name': 'InternalClient'}),
('NewEnabled',
{'allowed_values': set(),
'datatype': 'boolean',
'name': 'PortMappingEnabled'}),
('NewPortMappingDescription',
{'allowed_values': set(),
'datatype': 'string',
'name': 'PortMappingDescription'}),
('NewLeaseDuration',
{'allowed_values': set(),
'datatype': 'ui4',
'name': 'PortMappingLeaseDuration'})]
```

and then to call the action using those arguments:

```python
In [1]: d.WANIPConn1.AddPortMapping(
...: NewRemoteHost='0.0.0.0',
...: NewExternalPort=12345,
...: NewProtocol='TCP',
...: NewInternalPort=12345,
...: NewInternalClient='192.168.1.10',
...: NewEnabled='1',
...: NewPortMappingDescription='Testing',
...: NewLeaseDuration=10000)
Out[1]: {}
```

Similarly, the arguments you can expect to receive in response are listed:

```python
In [1]: d.WANIPConn1.GetGenericPortMappingEntry.argsdef_out
Out[1]:
[('NewRemoteHost',
{'allowed_values': set(), 'datatype': 'string', 'name': 'RemoteHost'}),
('NewExternalPort',
{'allowed_values': set(), 'datatype': 'ui2', 'name': 'ExternalPort'}),
('NewProtocol',
{'allowed_values': {'TCP', 'UDP'},
'datatype': 'string',
'name': 'PortMappingProtocol'}),
('NewInternalPort',
{'allowed_values': set(), 'datatype': 'ui2', 'name': 'InternalPort'}),
('NewInternalClient',
{'allowed_values': set(), 'datatype': 'string', 'name': 'InternalClient'}),
('NewEnabled',
{'allowed_values': set(),
'datatype': 'boolean',
'name': 'PortMappingEnabled'}),
('NewPortMappingDescription',
{'allowed_values': set(),
'datatype': 'string',
'name': 'PortMappingDescription'}),
('NewLeaseDuration',
{'allowed_values': set(),
'datatype': 'ui4',
'name': 'PortMappingLeaseDuration'})]
```

#### HTTP Auth/Headers

You may pass a
[requests compatible](http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/user/authentication/)
authentication object and/or a dictionary containing headers to use on the HTTP
calls to your uPnP device.

These may be set on the `Device` itself on creation for use with every HTTP
call:

```python
device = upnpclient.Device(
"http://192.168.1.1:5000/rootDesc.xml"
http_auth=('myusername', 'mypassword'),
http_headers={'Some-Required-Header': 'somevalue'}
)
```

Or on a per-call basis:

```python
device.Layer3Forwarding1.GetDefaultConnectionService(
http_auth=('myusername', 'mypassword'),
http_headers={'Some-Required-Header': 'somevalue'}
)
```

If you've set either at `Device` level, they can be overridden per-call by
setting them to `None`.
