PyRIC (is a Linux only) library providing wireless developers and pentesters the ability to identify, enumerate and manipulate their system's wireless cards programmatically in Python. PyRIC is:

  1. Pythonic: no ctypes, SWIG etc. PyRIC redefines C header files as Python and
    uses sockets to communicate with the kernel.
  2. Self-sufficient: No third-party files used. PyRIC is completely self-contained.
  3. Fast: (relatively speaking) PyRIC is faster than using command line tools
    through subprocess.Popen
  4. Parseless: Get the output you want without parsing output from command line
    tools. Never worry about newer iw versions and having to rewrite your parsers.
  5. Easy: If you can use iw, you can use PyRIC.
