Snmpy – A Pure Python SNMP Library with Zero Dependencies

Hacker News

Hi HN, I’m the creator of snmpy – a lightweight, pure Python library for SNMP v1/v2c/v3. It supports GET, SET, WALK, traps, and SNMPv3 authentication and encryption. There's even built-in support for UPS monitoring (battery, voltage, etc.). It’s built from scratch with zero dependencies (not even PySNMP or net-snmp), and is meant for developers who want to integrate SNMP monitoring into their tools or scripts without relying on native libraries or C extensions. Just `pip install snmpy` and you're ready. The CLI is also included for quick usage. The code is clean, readable, and fully open-source under the MIT license. I'd love your feedback — feature requests, use cases, missing things, or even tough critiques. GitHub: https://github.com/snmpware/snmpy Thanks!
