Python SSDP

Python asyncio library for Simple Service Discovery Protocol (SSDP).

SSDP is a UPnP substandard. For more information see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Service_Discovery_Protocol

Setup

python3 -m pip install ssdp

Usage

import ssdp.asyncio
import ssdp.messages
import asyncio
import socket

import ssdp


class MyProtocol(ssdp.asyncio.SimpleServiceDiscoveryProtocol):

  def response_received(self, response, addr):
    print(response, addr)

  def request_received(self, request, addr):
    print(request, addr)


loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
connect = loop.create_datagram_endpoint(MyProtocol, family=socket.AF_INET)
transport, protocol = loop.run_until_complete(connect)

notify = ssdp.message.SSDPRequest('NOTIFY')
notify.sendto(transport, (MyProtocol.MULTICAST_ADDRESS, 1982))

try:
  loop.run_forever()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
  pass

transport.close()
loop.close()
