Usage

IP Functions

import orangetool

#1- local_ip

local_ip=orangetool.local_ip() # this function return local ip of board as string

#2- global_ip

global_ip=orangetool.global_ip() # this function return global ip of board as string

#3- internet 

status=orangetool.internet() #this function check internet connection and return True if internet connection is stable

#4- ping

ip_status=orangetool.ping(ip_address) #this function check ip and return True if this ip is available in network and False otherwise

#5- set_ip

orangetool.set_ip("192.168.1.46","eth0")  #this function set static ip for system

#6- mac

mac_dic=orangetool.mac() # return dict of all system net devices mac addresses

#7- network_enable

status=network_enable("eth0") # enable network device

#8- network_disable

status=network_disable("eth0") # disable network device

RAM Functions

 
#1- total ram

ram=orangetool.ram_total() #this function return total ram of the board

#2- free ram

ram=orangetool.ram_free() # this function return how much ram is available in the board

#3- ram percentage

ram=orangetool.ram_percent() # this function return used ram percentage

#4- used percentage

ram=orangetool.ram_used() # this function return used ram 

#5- freeup

orangetool.freeup() # To free pagecache, dentries and inodes and return freeuped amount

Storage Functions

#1- mount_status

mount_details=orangetool.mount_status("sda1") # This function return mount addresses of input device

#2- storage_status

mount_details=orangetool.storage_status() # This function return all of the inserted storage and their status

#3- unmount

orangetool.unmount("/mnt/usb1") # This function unmount input device

#4- unmount_all


orangetool.unmount_all() #This function unmount all of the mounted devices

#5- mount

orangetool.mount("sda1","/mnt/usb1") # This function mount input device in input addresses

#6- usb_on

orangetool.usb_on() # This function enable USB

#7- usb_off

orangetool.usb_off() # This function disable USB

Display Functions

#1- hdmi_on

orangetool.hdmi_on() # turn on hdmi port

#2- hdmi_off

orangetool.hdmi_off() # turn off hdmi port

#3- hdmi_size

orangetool.hdmi_size(1280,720) # this function change hdmi display resolution

System Functions

#1- sleep

orangetool.sleep() # put system in sleep mode

#2- hibernate

orangetool.hibernate() # put system in hibernate mode

#3- halt

orangetool.halt() # poweroff system

#4- restart

orangetool.restart() # restart system

#5- wakeup

orangetool.wakeup(day=1,hour=0,minute=1,sync=True) # set rtc wakeuptime

#6- get_temp

temp=orangetool.get_temp() # this function return cpu temperature as string

#7- uptime

time=orangetool.uptime() # this function return uptime of system

#8- idletime

time=orangetool.idletime() # this function return idle of system ( all cores)


#9- version

orangetool.version() # return orangetool version for test

#10- check_update

orangetool.check_update() # Return True if new version is available

• All of the functions in error state return Error String
• local_ip and global_ip originally are available in ipz package Link
• RAM functions in this version need psutil package
• Running set_ip function remotely will freeze your terminal so it's better to set restart parameter to True
• Running halt,restart,hibernate & sleep functions remotely will freeze your terminal
• Some of funtions need root access so it's better to run sudo -s before use this tool
