SSDPy is a lightweight implementation of SSDP (Simple Service Discovery Protocol). It is designed for ease of use and high compatibility with the protocol in real-life use. It supports both the IETF and UPnP versions of the protocol. You can read the full documentation here.
Send an SSDP discover packet (M-SEARCH):
>>> from ssdpy import SSDPClient
>>> client = SSDPClient()
>>> devices = client.m_search("ssdp:all")
>>> for device in devices:
... print(device.get("usn"))
uuid:Dell-Printer-1_0-dsi-secretariat::urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:PrintBasic:1
uuid:00000000-0000-0000-0200-00125A8A0960::urn:schemas-microsoft-com:nhed:presence:1
Send an SSDP NOTIFY packet, telling others about a service:
>>> from ssdpy import SSDPServer
>>> server = SSDPServer("my-service-identifier")
>>> server.notify()
Start an SSDP server which responds to relevant M-SEARCHes:
>>> from ssdpy import SSDPServer
>>> server = SSDPServer("my-service-identifier", device_type="my-device-type")
>>> server.serve_forever()
Then, from a client, M-SEARCH for our server:
>>> from ssdpy import SSDPClient
>>> client = SSDPClient()
>>> devices = client.m_search("my-device-type")
>>> for device in devices:
... print(device.get("usn"))
my-service-identifier
