We're creating a 'pyosmocom' pypi module which contains a number of core Osmocom libraries / interfaces that are not specific to SIM card stuff contained here. The main modules moved in this initial step are pySim.tlv, pySim.utils and pySim.construct. utils is split, not all of the contents is unrelated to SIM Cards. The other two are moved completely.

pySim - Read, Write and Browse Programmable SIM/USIM/ISIM/HPSIM Cards
|
|
=====================================================================
|
|
|
|
This repository contains a number of Python programs that can be used
|
|
to read, program (write) and browse all fields/parameters/files on
|
|
SIM/USIM/ISIM/HPSIM cards used in 3GPP cellular networks from 2G to 5G.
|
|
|
|
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 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now and have by far been superseded by the much more capable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. 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
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There is a web interface at <https://gitea.osmocom.org/sim-card/pysim>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
```sh
|
|
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``
|
|
[](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
|
|
```
