What is python-pyric-doc

python-pyric-doc is:

This package contains a Linux only library providing wireless developers and pentesters the ability to identify, enumerate and manipulate their system’s wireless cards programmatically in Python. Pentesting applications and scripts written in Python have increased dramatically in recent years. However, these tools still rely on Linux command lines tools to setup and prepare and restore the system for use. Until now. PyRIC is: - Pythonic: no ctypes, SWIG etc. PyRIC redefines C header files as Python and uses sockets to communicate with the kernel. - Self-sufficient: No third-party files used. PyRIC is completely self-contained. - Fast: (relatively speaking) PyRIC is faster than using command line tools through subprocess.Popen - Parseless: Get the output you want without parsing output from command line tools. Never worry about newer iw versions and having to rewrite your parsers. - Easy: If you can use iw, you can use PyRIC. At it’s heart, PyRIC is a Python port of (a subset of) iw and by extension, a Python port of Netlink w.r.t nl80211 functionality. PyRIC puts iw, ifconfig, rfkill, udevadm, airmon-ng and macchanger in your hands (or your program).
