Dependencies
Installation
------------
pysim requires:
Please install the following dependencies:
- pyscard
- serial
- pytlv
- cmd2
- jsonpath-ng
- bidict
- pyscard
- serial
- pytlv
- cmd2
- jsonpath-ng
- construct
- bidict
- gsm0338
Example for Debian:
apt-get install python3-pyscard python3-serial python3-cmd2 python3-pip python3-yaml
pip3 install pytlv bidict
```
apt-get install python3-pyscard python3-serial python3-cmd2 python3-pip python3-yaml
pip3 install pytlv jsonpath-ng construct bidict gsm0338
```
Alternatively, everything can be installed using pip:
```
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
```
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
After installing all dependencies, the pySim applications ``pySim-read.py``, ``pySim-prog.py`` and ``pySim-shell.py`` may be started directly from the cloned repository.
### Archlinux Package
Archlinux users may install the package ``python-pysim-git``
[![](https://img.shields.io/aur/version/python-pysim-git)](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-pysim-git)
from the [Arch User Repository (AUR)](https://aur.archlinux.org).
The most convenient way is the use of an [AUR Helper](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_helpers),
e.g. [yay](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yay) or [pacaur](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pacaur).
The following example shows the installation with ``yay``.
```sh
# Install
yay -Sy python-pysim-git
# Uninstall
sudo pacman -Rs python-pysim-git
```

Usage Examples

* Program customizable SIMs. Two modes are possible:
- one where you specify every parameter manually :
- one where you specify every parameter manually:
```
./pySim-prog.py -n 26C3 -c 49 -x 262 -y 42 -i <IMSI> -s <ICCID>

```
./pySim-prog.py -n 26C3 -c 49 -x 262 -y 42 -z <random_string_of_choice> -j <card_num>
```
With <random_string_of_choice> and <card_num>, the soft will generate
'predictable' IMSI and ICCID, so make sure you choose them so as not to
conflict with anyone. (for eg. your name as <random_string_of_choice> and
0 1 2 ... for <card num>).

You also need to enter some parameters to select the device :
-t TYPE : type of card (supersim, magicsim, fakemagicsim or try 'auto')
-d DEV : Serial port device (default /dev/ttyUSB0)
-b BAUD : Baudrate (default 9600)
