Where can I find the PyBluez API

Question

I understood from Bluetooth for Programmers chapter 2, that the PyBluez API does provide functions like discover_devices and lookup_name.

However I have not found any API documentation for PyBluez.

What I am looking for is the complete list of functions available in PyBluez as well as the list of arguments for these functions - f.e. what are the arguments available for discover_devices, what are the arguments available for lookup_name....

Solution 1

Here it is, the most useless documentation ever

Solution 2

Found it:

• Download the PyBluez sources from it git repository
• Extract the sources
• Open the file pybluez\docs\index.html - Everything is available from there

I'm amazed that PyBluez is still the top result for bluetooth on python with this level of quality

@AlexLamson is there a better alternative for BLE on python?

@jaaq Supposedly python3.3 sockets should natively support it, but I haven't tried it. Also sockets aren't the simplest things in world to work with if you're trying to do something simple.
