.. _network.WLANWiPy:
class WLANWiPy -- WiPy specific WiFi control
============================================
.. note::
This class is a non-standard WLAN implementation for the WiPy.
It is available simply as ``network.WLAN`` on the WiPy but is named in the
documentation below as ``network.WLANWiPy`` to distinguish it from the
more general :ref:`network.WLAN <network.WLAN>` class.
This class provides a driver for the WiFi network processor in the WiPy. Example usage::
import network
import time
# setup as a station
wlan = network.WLAN(mode=WLAN.STA)
wlan.connect('your-ssid', auth=(WLAN.WPA2, 'your-key'))
while not wlan.isconnected():
time.sleep_ms(50)
print(wlan.ipconfig("addr4"))
# now use socket as usual
...
Constructors
------------
.. class:: WLANWiPy(id=0, ...)
Create a WLAN object, and optionally configure it. See `init()` for params of configuration.
.. note::
The ``WLAN`` constructor is special in the sense that if no arguments besides the id are given,
it will return the already existing ``WLAN`` instance without re-configuring it. This is
because ``WLAN`` is a system feature of the WiPy. If the already existing instance is not
initialized it will do the same as the other constructors an will initialize it with default
values.
Methods
-------
.. method:: WLANWiPy.init(mode, *, ssid, auth, channel, antenna)
Set or get the WiFi network processor configuration.
Arguments are:
- *mode* can be either ``WLAN.STA`` or ``WLAN.AP``.
- *ssid* is a string with the ssid name. Only needed when mode is ``WLAN.AP``.
- *auth* is a tuple with (sec, key). Security can be ``None``, ``WLAN.WEP``,
``WLAN.WPA`` or ``WLAN.WPA2``. The key is a string with the network password.
If ``sec`` is ``WLAN.WEP`` the key must be a string representing hexadecimal
values (e.g. 'ABC1DE45BF'). Only needed when mode is ``WLAN.AP``.
- *channel* a number in the range 1-11. Only needed when mode is ``WLAN.AP``.
- *antenna* selects between the internal and the external antenna. Can be either
``WLAN.INT_ANT`` or ``WLAN.EXT_ANT``.
For example, you can do::
# create and configure as an access point
wlan.init(mode=WLAN.AP, ssid='wipy-wlan', auth=(WLAN.WPA2,'www.wipy.io'), channel=7, antenna=WLAN.INT_ANT)
or::
# configure as an station
wlan.init(mode=WLAN.STA)
.. method:: WLANWiPy.connect(ssid, *, auth=None, bssid=None, timeout=None)
Connect to a WiFi access point using the given SSID, and other security
parameters.
- *auth* is a tuple with (sec, key). Security can be ``None``, ``WLAN.WEP``,
``WLAN.WPA`` or ``WLAN.WPA2``. The key is a string with the network password.
If ``sec`` is ``WLAN.WEP`` the key must be a string representing hexadecimal
values (e.g. 'ABC1DE45BF').
- *bssid* is the MAC address of the AP to connect to. Useful when there are several
APs with the same ssid.
- *timeout* is the maximum time in milliseconds to wait for the connection to succeed.
.. method:: WLANWiPy.scan()
Performs a network scan and returns a list of named tuples with (ssid, bssid, sec, channel, rssi).
Note that channel is always ``None`` since this info is not provided by the WiPy.
.. method:: WLANWiPy.disconnect()
Disconnect from the WiFi access point.
.. method:: WLANWiPy.isconnected()
In case of STA mode, returns ``True`` if connected to a WiFi access point and has a valid IP address.
In AP mode returns ``True`` when a station is connected, ``False`` otherwise.
.. method:: WLANWiPy.ipconfig('param')
WLANWiPy.ipconfig(param=value, ...)
See :meth:`AbstractNIC.ipconfig <AbstractNIC.ipconfig>`. Supported parameters are: ``dhcp4``, ``addr4``, ``gw4``.
.. method:: WLANWiPy.mode([mode])
Get or set the WLAN mode.
.. method:: WLANWiPy.ssid([ssid])
Get or set the SSID when in AP mode.
.. method:: WLANWiPy.auth([auth])
Get or set the authentication type when in AP mode.
.. method:: WLANWiPy.channel([channel])
Get or set the channel (only applicable in AP mode).
.. method:: WLANWiPy.antenna([antenna])
Get or set the antenna type (external or internal).
.. method:: WLANWiPy.mac([mac_addr])
Get or set a 6-byte long bytes object with the MAC address.
.. method:: WLANWiPy.irq(*, handler, wake)
Create a callback to be triggered when a WLAN event occurs during ``machine.SLEEP``
mode. Events are triggered by socket activity or by WLAN connection/disconnection.
- *handler* is the function that gets called when the IRQ is triggered.
- *wake* must be ``machine.SLEEP``.
Returns an IRQ object.
