# pyrri
Commandline client and module to send/receive RRI commands, written in Python 3

# requirements
You must have a recent version of Python 3 installed. The client is tested with Python 3.6,
but it may run with older versions, too. It is not compatible with Python 2.x!

No third party modules are needed.

# Use it as a client

You need to copy "rri.py" somewhere in your PATH and make it executable. Then call it with "-h"
to show help:

    rri.py -h
    
All parameters are optional:
* -s SERVER defaults to "rri.denic.de:51131"
* Username and Password can be given as Parameters with -u and -p, but also
  and more secure as environment variables RRI\_USERNAME and RRI\_PASSWORD
* order can be piped in from stdin or as file with parameter -i
* answer is written to stdout or to a file which can be set with parameter -o

Example 1:

    export RRI_USERNAME="DENIC-1000006-USER"
    export RRI_PASSWORD="this is a secret"
    cat example_kv.txt | ./rri.py
    
Example 2:

    ./rri.py -s rri.test.denic.de:51131 -u DENIC-1000006-USER -p password -i example_kv.txt -o answer.txt


# Use it as a module

Copy rri.py to your project, import the RRIClient class, instantiate it, connect to the rri server and login

    from rri import RRIClient
    ...
    
    rri = RRIClient()
    # connect to rri server
    rri.connect(hostname, port)
    # login with your credentials
    rri.login(username, password)
    
Now you can send a command to the rri server:

    answer = rri.talk(order)

You can repeatedly call the "talk"-method with further orders.

When you are done, logout and disconnect     
    
    rri.logout()
    rri.disconnect()
    
When an error occures the methods raise exceptions, which you should handle properly!
 
    
# TODO
* Implement check and validation of certificate with trustchain in module and cli
* add automated tests
