Python Chained Generators for Network Packets: Read the
Docs



Installation
pip install py-chains


Documentation

About
The Chains project is an exploration of python components that you
‘chain’ together to process streaming network packets. The use of
native python generators means the code is extremely lightweight and
efficient.


Example
# Create the classes
streamer = packet_streamer.PacketStreamer(iface_name=data_path, max_packets=10)
meta = packet_meta.PacketMeta()
rdns = reverse_dns.ReverseDNS()
printer = packet_printer.PacketPrinter()

# Set up the chain
meta.link(streamer)
rdns.link(meta)
printer.link(rdns)

# Pull the chain
printer.pull()
