pybess is a Python library which lets you interact with BESS using gRPC.
You can install the library directly using pip/pip3:
pip3 install pybess_grpc
As mentioned above pybess can be used to communicate with BESS over gRPC.
An example of usage of this library is to list all BESS ports remotely:
import sys
from google.protobuf.json_format import MessageToDict
from pybess_grpc.bess import BESS
bess = BESS()
try:
bess.connect(grpc_url="%s:10514" % sys.argv[1])
ports = bess.list_ports()
print(MessageToDict(ports)["ports"])
finally:
bess.disconnect()
