PyPCAPKit - Comprehensive Network Packet Analysis Library
=========================================================
For any technical and/or maintenance information,
please kindly refer to the |docs|_.
.. |docs| replace:: **Official Documentation**
.. _docs: https://jarryshaw.github.io/PyPCAPKit/
The PyPCAPKit project is an open source Python program focus on network packet
parsing and analysis, which works as a comprehensive `PCAP`_ file extraction,
construction and analysis library.
The whole project supports **Python 3.6** or later.
-----
About
-----
PyPCAPKit is a comprehensive Python-native network packet analysis library,
with `DictDumper`_ as its formatted output dumper.
Unlike popular PCAP file extractors, such as `Scapy`_, `DPKT`_, `PyShark`_,
and etc, ``pcapkit`` is designed to be much more comprehensive, which means
it is able to provide more detailed information about the packet, as well as
a more *Pythonic* interface for users to interact with.
Module Structure
----------------
In ``pcapkit``, all files can be described as following eight parts.
- Interface (``pcapkit.interface``)
User interface for the ``pcapkit`` library, which
standardises and simplifies the usage of this library.
- Foundation (``pcapkit.foundation``)
Synthesises file I/O and protocol analysis, coordinates
information exchange in all network layers, as well as
provides the foundamental functions for ``pcapkit``.
- Protocols (``pcapkit.protocols``)
Collection of all protocol family, with detailed
implementation and methods.
- Utilities (``pcapkit.utilities``)
Auxiliary functions and tools for ``pcapkit``.
- CoreKit (``pcapkit.corekit``)
Core utilities for ``pcapkit`` implementation, mainly
for internal data structure and processing.
- ToolKit (``pcapkit.toolkit``)
Auxiliary tools for ``pcapkit`` to support the multiple
extraction engines with a unified interface.
- DumpKit (``pcapkit.dumpkit``)
File output formatters for ``pcapkit``.
- Constants (``pcapkit.const``)
Constant enumerations used in ``pcapkit`` for protocol
family extraction and representation.
Engine Comparison
-----------------
Due to the general overhead of ``pcapkit``, its extraction procedure takes
around *0.2* milliseconds per packet, which is already impressive but not enough
comparing to other popular extration engines availbale on the market, given the
fact that ``pcapkit`` is a **comprehensive** packet processing module.
Additionally, ``pcapkit`` introduced alternative extractionengines to accelerate
this procedure. By now ``pcapkit`` supports `Scapy`_, `DPKT`_, and `PyShark`_.

Installation
------------
.. note::
``pcapkit`` supports Python versions **since 3.6**.
Simply run the following to install the current version from PyPI:
.. code-block:: shell
pip install pypcapkit
Or install the latest version from the gi repository:
.. code-block:: shell
git clone https://github.com/JarryShaw/PyPCAPKit.git
cd pypcapkit
pip install -e .
# and to update at any time
git pull
And since ``pcapkit`` supports various extraction engines, and extensive
plug-in functions, you may want to install the optional ones:
.. code-block:: shell
# for DPKT only
pip install pypcapkit[DPKT]
# for Scapy only
pip install pypcapkit[Scapy]
# for PyShark only
pip install pypcapkit[PyShark]
# and to install all the optional packages
pip install pypcapkit[all]
# or to do this explicitly
pip install pypcapkit dpkt scapy pyshark
For CLI usage, you will need to install the optional packages:
.. code-block:: shell
pip install pypcapkit[cli]
# or explicitly...
pip install pypcapkit emoji
