# Python Aternos
An unofficial Aternos API written in Python.  
It uses [aternos](https://aternos.org/)' private API and html parsing.

## Installing
```bash
pip install python-aternos
```
> Note for Windows users:  
Install `lxml` package from [here](https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#lxml) if you have a problem with it,  
and then execute `pip install --no-deps python-aternos`

## Usage
To use Aternos API in your Python script, import it
and login with your username and password/MD5.

Then request the servers list using `list_servers()`.  
You can start/stop your Aternos server now, calling `start()` or `stop()`.

Here is an example how to use the API:
```python
# Import
from python_aternos import Client

# Log in
aternos = Client.from_credentials('example', 'test123')
# ----OR----
aternos = Client.from_hashed('example', 'cc03e747a6afbbcbf8be7668acfebee5')
# ----OR----
aternos = Client.restore_session()

# Returns AternosServer list
servs = aternos.list_servers()

# Get the first server by the 0 index
myserv = servs[0]

# Start
myserv.start()
# Stop
myserv.stop()

# You can also find server by IP
testserv = None
for serv in servs:
    if serv.address == 'test.aternos.org':
        testserv = serv
if testserv != None:
    # Prints a server softaware and its version
    # (for example, "Vanilla 1.12.2")
    print(testserv.software, testserv.version)
    # Starts server
    testserv.start()
```
