###Rescued version of pywpactrl Author: Kel Modderman Copyright: (c) 2008 Kel Modderman <kel@otaku42.de> License: GPLv2 ###Original README: python-wpactrl -------------- A Python extension for wpa_supplicant/hostapd control interface access Description ----------- wpactrl defines a single class, WPACtrl, that must be instantiated with the pathname of a UNIX domain socket control interface of a wpa_supplicant/hostapd daemon. Once a WPACtrl object has been instantiated, it may call several helper methods to interact with the wpa_supplicant/hostapd daemon. If an error occurs, a wpactrl.error exception is raised. The destructor of a WPACtrl instance closes the connection to the control interface socket. Recommendations for the use of wpa_supplicant/hostapd control interface access in external programs are at: <http://w1.fi/wpa_supplicant/devel/ctrl_iface_page.html> Installation ------------ make make install Two Makefile variables may be specified on the command line; PYTHON and DESTDIR. PYTHON - Python executable that should be called (eg. python2.5) DESTDIR - Alternative root destination directory
