Installation of Netzob
======================
This page presents how to install Netzob as a Python package.
Installing Netzob system dependencies
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
First thing to do is to check the version of your python3 interpretor.
Netzob requires at least Python 3.8::
$ python3 --version
Python 3.8.10
You have to install the following system dependencies::
$ apt-get install -y python3 python3-dev python3-setuptools virtualenv build-essential libpcap-dev libgraph-easy-perl libffi-dev
Then, create a virtualenv::
$ mkdir venv
$ virtualenv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
Installing Netzob from Pypi
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You can install Netzob from Pypi (recommended choice)::
(venv) $ pip3 install netzob
Installing Netzob from sources
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you have retrieved Netzob sources, the installation procedure is::
(venv) $ pip3 install Cython==0.29.32 # Should be manually installed because of setup.py direct dependency
(venv) $ pip3 install -e .
API usage
---------
Once installed, we recommend to use the Netzob API inside scripts, with the following statement to import Netzob::
from netzob.all import *
Start Netzob CLI
----------------
Netzob also provides its own CLI, in order to play interactively with it::
(venv) $ netzob
Building the documentation
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The folder *doc/documentation* contains all the documentation of Netzob.
The user manual can be generated based on RST sources located in folder
*doc/documentation/source* with the following command::
$ sphinx-build -b html doc/documentation/source/ doc/documentation/build/
