See also, http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/tree/examples/python/dbus which are examples for using Python to access the D-Bus interface directly. then there is also http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/tree/examples/python/gi which uses libnm via gobject introspection. If you want something quick, this might be better. If you want to implement the best possible python NM library, you might don't want to use it. Note that libnm will always be installed together with NetworkManager, so the additional dependency is not that cumbersome. But libnm was only introduced with nm-1-0, so if you want to support older NM (too), you must use the now deprecated libnm-utils library. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/tree/examples/python/gi?h=nm-0-9-10 The deprecated library libnm-utils also works with NM 1.0 and newer, but it is... deprecated. The D-Bus API for NM is quite stable, so if you are using D-Bus directly, you should easily be able to support various version of NetworkManager. I didn't look at python-networkmanager, but that might be worth using (and improving) instead of adding yet another wrapper. Thomas
