The shutil python module.

The shutil module helps you to accomplish tasks, such as: copying, moving, or removing directory trees.
This python script creates a zip file in the current directory containing all contents of dir and then clears dir.

import shutil
from os import makedirs

def zip(out_fileName, dir):
shutil.make_archive(str(out_fileName), 'zip', dir)
shutil.rmtree(dir)
makedirs(dir[:-1])

The scapy python module - part 002.

This is another python tutorial about scapy python module.
The last was made on Linux and now I used Windows 10 OS.
Let's install this python module with python version 2.7.13 and pip.

C:\>cd Python27

C:\Python27>cd Scripts

C:\Python27\Scripts>pip install scapy
Collecting scapy
  Downloading scapy-2.3.3.tgz (1.4MB)

The next step is to deal with

Cleaning up...

Now you need to install this filter from here.
If not, you can get errors like this: raise NoBackendError('No backend available')
usb.core.NoBackendError: No backend available
Let's make a simple test example:

import usb.core
import usb.util
import sys

class find_class(object):
    def __init__(self, class_):
        self._class = class_
    def __call__(self, device):
        # first, let's check the device
        if device.bDeviceClass == self._class:
            return True
        # ok, transverse all devices to find an
        # interface that matches our class
        for cfg in device:
            # find_descriptor: what's it?
            intf = usb.util.find_descriptor(
                                        cfg,
                                        bInterfaceClass=self._class
                                )
            if intf is not None:
                return True

        return False

all = usb.core.find(find_all=1, custom_match=find_class(7))
print (all)

And show the result:

C:\Python34>python.exe usb_devs.py
< generator 0x0000000003d8d5e8="" at="" device_iter="" object="" >
