Python Aternos API

An unofficial Aternos API written in Python.
It uses aternos' private API and html parsing.

Installing

pip install python-aternos

Note for Windows users:
Install lxml package from here 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:

# Import
from python_aternos import Client

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

# 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()

You can find full documentation on the Project Wiki.
