meo-wifi-login

Description:

Allows for an automated login through a MEO Wifi Premium hotspot.

Usage

You may use meo_wifi_login.py file as regular script, running it via CLI...:

./meo_wifi_login -u <username> -p <password>

...or call the meo_wifi_login function through your script:

import meo_wifi_login

meo_wifi_login.meo_wifi_login('user','pass')

The script also looks for a MEO_WIFI_USER and MEO_WIFI_PASSWORD environment variable for the login information.

In case neither of these sources are available, it will prompt the user via console to fill them

Dependencies

Beyond the standard Python libraries, you may need to install the following:

• requests (optional, recommended)
• cryptography OR pyaes

You can install them using pip. For example:

pip install requests cryptography

Several Linux distros also have packages for them. For example, in Debian 10 you can install them like this:

sudo apt-get install python-requests python-cryptography

Notes

• requests is used to make HTTPS requests. A working (but probably less robust) urllib-based fallback is included.
• cryptography and pyaes are used to encrypt the password using AES.
• cryptography is preferred and more likely to already be installed or available in distributions.
• pyaes is a pure python alternative to cryptography and is good to have for when cryptography is harder to install. (e.g. Termux)
• The code has been ported to work on both Python 2 and 3. Make sure you install your dependencies for the version of Python you will be running the script with.

Python < 2.7.9

Python earlier than 2.7.9 has some restrictions on their ssl module that limits the configuration urllib3 can apply.

If you have a InsecurePlatformWarning error, update Python to v2.7.9+ or install requests extra package set security with:

pip install requests[security]

This should install the following extra packages:

• pyOpenSSL>
• ndg-httpsclient
• pyasn1
