It has been first written to support particular protocol (SNMP) +but then generalized to be suitable for a wide range of protocols +based on ASN.1 specification. + +FEATURES +-------- + +* Generic implementation of ASN.1 types (X.208) +* Fully standard compliant BER/CER/DER codecs +* 100% Python, works with Python 2.4 up to Python 3.3 (beta 1) +* MT-safe + +MISFEATURES +----------- + +* No ASN.1 compiler (by-hand ASN.1 spec compilation into Python code required) +* Codecs are not restartable + +INSTALLATION +------------ + +The pyasn1 package uses setuptools/distutils for installation. Thus do +either: + +$ easy_install pyasn1 + +or + +$ tar zxf pyasn1-0.1.3.tar.gz +$ cd pyasn1-0.1.3 +$ python setup.py install +$ cd test +$ python suite.py # run unit tests + +OPERATION +--------- + +Perhaps a typical use would involve [by-hand] compilation of your ASN.1 +specification into pyasn1-backed Python code at your application. + +For more information on pyasn1 APIs, please, refer to the +doc/pyasn1-tutorial.html file in the distribution. + +Also refer to example modules. Take a look at pyasn1-modules package -- maybe +it already holds something useful to you. + +AVAILABILITY +------------ + +The pyasn1 package is distributed under terms and conditions of BSD-style +license.
