freebsd_sysctl v0.0.6 Python Module

Native Python wrapper for FreeBSD jails using libc.

This Python 3 interface for FreeBSD sysctl has no third party dependency and does not require a compile step to install. It is meant for performant (read) access to sysctls, their type, value and description.

It is dependency of devel/py-libioc and available in the Pip registry:

Comment 1 Mark Linimon freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-09-30 07:08:52 UTC
(In reply to gronke from comment #0)

Should this be "FreeBSD sysctls" instead of "FreeBSD jails" ?
Comment 2 Kubilay Kocak freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-09-30 08:21:29 UTC
The PyPI name for this package is freebsd-sysctl, please use that as the PORTNAME

If you could also confirm the port passes QA (portlint, poudriere, PythonPolicy [1]), that would be great.

Comment 3 Kubilay Kocak freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-09-30 08:22:36 UTC
I would probably also put this in sysutils as a primary category, devel, python as secondaries.

freebsd_sysctl v0.0.7 Python Module

- Port and PyPi package renamed to freebsd-sysctl (although the import name is still freebsd_sysctl)
- `sysutils` is added as secondary category. The library gives programmatic access to sysctls from Python, but is not meant to be a system utility for direct usage.
