unfortunately the API changes introduced in change I277aa90fddb5171c4bf6c3436259aa371d30d092 broke the API interface of http_json_api.py. This was taken into account and necessary to introduce add the server functionality next to the already existing client functionality. The changes to the API were minimal and all code locations that use http_json_api.py were re-aligned. Unfortunately it was not clear at this point in time that there are out-of-tree projects that could be affected by API changes in http_json_api.py To mitigate the problem this patch introduces an alternative API interface to the JsonHttpApiFunction base class. This alternative API interface works like the old API interface when the class is instantiated in the original way. To make use of the revised client the API use has to pass an additional keyword argument that defines the role. Related: SYS#7866 Change-Id: I2a5d4b59b12e08d5eae7a1215814d3a69c8921f6
pySim - Tools for reading, decoding, browsing SIM/USIM/ISIM/HPSIM/eUICC Cards
This repository contains a number of Python programs related to working with subscriber identity modules of cellular networks, including but not limited to SIM, UICC, USIM, ISIM, HPSIMs and eUICCs.
pySim-shell.pycan be used to interactively explore, read and decode contents of any of the supported card models / card applications. Furthermore, if you have the credentials to your card (ADM PIN), you can also write to the card, i.e. edit its contents.pySim-read.pyandpySim-prog.pyare legacy tools for batch programming some very common parameters to an entire batch of programmable cardspySim-trace.pyis a tool to do an in-depth decode of SIM card protocol traces such as those obtained by Osmocom SIMtrace2 or osmo-qcdiag.osmo-smdpp.pyis a proof-of-concept GSMA SGP.22 Consumer eSIM SM-DP+ for lab/research- there are more related tools, particularly in the
contribdirectory.
Note that the access control configuration of normal production cards issue by operators will restrict significantly which files a normal user can read, and particularly write to.
The full functionality of pySim hence can only be used with on so-called programmable SIM/USIM/ISIM/HPSIM cards, such as the various sysmocom programmable card products.
Such SIM/USIM/ISIM/HPSIM cards are special cards, which - unlike those issued by regular commercial operators - come with the kind of keys that allow you to write the files/fields that normally only an operator can program.
This is useful particularly if you are running your own cellular network, and want to configure your own SIM/USIM/ISIM/HPSIM cards for that network.

Documentation
The pySim user manual can be built from this very source code by means of sphinx (with sphinxcontrib-napoleon and sphinx-argparse). See the Makefile in the 'docs' directory.
A pre-rendered HTML user manual of the current pySim 'git master' is available from https://downloads.osmocom.org/docs/latest/pysim/ and a downloadable PDF version is published at https://downloads.osmocom.org/docs/latest/osmopysim-usermanual.pdf.
A slightly dated video presentation about pySim-shell can be found at https://media.ccc.de/v/osmodevcall-20210409-laforge-pysim-shell.
pySim-shell vs. legacy tools
While you will find a lot of online resources still describing the use of
pySim-prog.py and pySim-read.py, those tools are considered legacy by
now and have by far been superseded by the much more capable
pySim-shell.py. We strongly encourage users to adopt pySim-shell, unless
they have very specific requirements like batch programming of large
quantities of cards, which is about the only remaining use case for the
legacy tools.
Git Repository
You can clone from the official Osmocom git repository using
git clone https://gitea.osmocom.org/sim-card/pysim.git

Installation
Please install the following dependencies:
- bidict
- cmd2 >= 1.5.0
- colorlog
- construct >= 2.9.51
- pyosmocom
- jsonpath-ng
- packaging
- pycryptodomex
- pyscard
- pyserial
- pytlv
- pyyaml >= 5.1
- smpp.pdu (from
github.com/hologram-io/smpp.pdu) - termcolor
Example for Debian:
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends \
pcscd libpcsclite-dev \
python3 \
python3-setuptools \
python3-pycryptodome \
python3-pyscard \
python3-pip
pip3 install --user -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.
In addition to the dependencies above pySim-trace.py requires tshark and the python package pyshark to be installed. It is known that the tshark package
in Debian versions before 11 may not work with pyshark.
Archlinux Package
Archlinux users may install the package python-pysim-git
yay.
# Install
yay -Sy python-pysim-git
# Uninstall
sudo pacman -Rs python-pysim-git
