The twilio python module and cloud communications platform .

Let's build apps that communicate with everyone in the world. Voice & Video, Messaging, and Authentication APIs for every application.
First, let's try to install it under Windows 10 operating system:

C:\>cd Python27
C:\Python27>cd Scripts
C:\Python27\Scripts>pip install twilio

Make an account for Twilio here.
Now about phone Twilio numbers, then programmable phone Twilio numbers are a core part of Twilio’s platform, enabling you to receive SMS, MMS, and phone calls.
You can have some problems with SMS sending by country availability.
And one last example:

# /usr/bin/env python
# Download the twilio-python library from http://twilio.com/docs/libraries
from twilio.rest import Client

# Find these values at https://twilio.com/user/account
account_sid = "AC61b32be301f49f78f0ab3d69c4d335f6"
auth_token = "c8f37b65755900faa4fe7bbe1f948adb"
client = Client(account_sid, auth_token)

message = client.api.account.messages.create(to="+contry_allow_SMS",
                                             from_="++contry_allow_SMS",
                                             body="Hello python this is a twilio sms test")

Blender 3D - ellipsoid.

This is a simple way to use Blender 3D - version 2.78c with python scripting tool to make one ellipsoid.

The ellipsoid may be parameterized in several ways but I used the sin and cos functions:
x = sin(theta) * sin(phi)
y = cos(theta) * sin(phi)
z = cos(phi)
The steps I follow are:

• make points of ellipsoid - CoordsPoints
• define an ellipsoid vectors 
• create a new mesh 
• make rings for faces
• make an ellipsoid
• The verts_mesh and verts_mesh_face are used to make faces
• put all into the Blender 3D scene
  

import bpy
import bmesh
from math import degrees, radians, sin, cos, tan
from mathutils import Vector


class CoordsPoints:
    @property
    def xyz(self):
        theta = self.theta
        phi = self.phi
        x = sin(theta) * sin(phi)
        y = cos(theta) * sin(phi)
        z = cos(phi)
        R = self.R
        return R * Vector((x,y,z))

    def __init__(self, R, theta, phi):
        self.R = R
        self.theta = theta
        self.phi = phi
        #self.xyz = self.point(theta, phi)

    def __repr__(self):
        return "Coords(%.4f, %.4f)" % (degrees(self.theta),
                                               degrees(self.phi))
# define the ellipsoid method.
def ellipsoid(a, b, c):
    def ellipsoid(v):
        x = a * (v.x)
        y = b * (v.y)
        z = c * (v.z)
        return Vector((x, y, z))
    return ellipsoid

# make the ellipsoid bmesh
bm = bmesh.new()

# TODO come up with a nicer way to do this.
rings = [[CoordsPoints(1, radians(theta), radians(phi)) 
                 for theta in range (0, 360, 2)]
                 for phi in range(0, 180, 2)]

h = ellipsoid(1.0, 1.0, 1.5)

verts_mesh = [bm.verts.new(h(p.xyz)) for p in rings[0]]
verts_mesh.append(verts_mesh[0])
for ring in range(1, len(rings)):

    verts_mesh_face = [bm.verts.new(h(p.xyz)) for p in rings[ring]]
    verts_mesh_face.append(verts_mesh_face[0])

    faces = [
        bm.faces.new((
            verts_mesh[i], verts_mesh_face[i],
            verts_mesh_face[i+1], verts_mesh[i+1]
        ))
        for i in range(len(verts_mesh) - 1)
    ]
    verts_mesh = verts_mesh_face

# create mesh link it to scene 
mesh = bpy.data.meshes.new("ellipsoid")
bm.to_mesh(mesh)
obj = bpy.data.objects.new("ellipsoid", mesh)
scene = bpy.context.scene
scene.objects.link(obj)
scene.objects.active = obj
obj.select = True
obj.location = scene.cursor_location

The scapy python module - part 001.

Today I will start with scapy python module.
This is a good python module to deal and interact with network packets.

[root@localhost mythcat]# pip install scapy

The first test is to test is the echo of Layer 3 ICMP.
Use the superuser shell to run this python script:

from scapy.all import *
dstip=raw_input("enter the ip address \n")
icmp=ICMP()
icmp.type=8
icmp.code=0
ip=IP()
ip.dst=dstip
p=sr1(ip/icmp,timeout=5, verbose=0)
if(p):
        print "Layer 3 is up"
else:
        print "Layer 3 status is down"

The next python script will about arp request:

from scapy.all import *
def arp_display(pkt):
    if pkt[ARP].op == 1: 
        return "Request: " + pkt[ARP].psrc + " is asking about " + pkt[ARP].pdst
    if pkt[ARP].op == 2: 
        return "*Response: " + pkt[ARP].hwsrc + " has address " + pkt[ARP].psrc
print sniff(prn=arp_display, filter="arp", store=0, count=10)

This will read the packages from source and destination and show me what ARP traffic my computer is seeing.

How to parse the OPML file.

For example, the Feedly (stylized as Feedly) is a news aggregator application for various web browsers and mobile devices can let you export and import the OPML file.

---

What is XML?
The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a markup language much like HTML or SGML. This is recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium and available as an open standard.

---

Today I will show you how to parse the OPML file type with python 2.7 version and XML python module.
This is the source script:

from xml.etree import ElementTree
import sys

file_opml = sys.argv[1]
def extract_rss_urls_from_opml(filename):
    urls = []
    with open(filename, 'rt') as f:
        tree = ElementTree.parse(f)
    for node in tree.findall('.//outline'):
        url = node.attrib.get('xmlUrl')
        if url:
            urls.append(url)
    return urls
urls = extract_rss_urls_from_opml(file_opml)
print urls

The result is a list with all your RSS links.
