+.Ed +.Pp +Implementing this function is optional. +The default constructor will set the keyword arguments it receives +as member variables in the object. +.Pp +The function arguments are as follows:

currently not supported for plugins +written in Python. +.Ss Conversation API +A Python plugin can interact with the user using the +.Fn sudo.conv +function which displays one or more messages described by the +.Dv sudo.ConvMessage +class. +This is the Python equivalent of the +.Fn conversation +function in the C +.Nm sudo +plugin API. +A plugin should not attempt to read directly from the standard input or +the user's tty (neither of which are guaranteed to exist). +.Pp +The +.Dv sudo.ConvMessage +class specifies how the user interaction should occur: +.Bd -literal -offset 4n +sudo.ConvMessage(msg_type: int, msg: str, timeout: int) +.Ed +.Pp +.Dv sudo.ConvMessage +member variables: +.Bl -tag -width 4n +.It Fa msg_type +Specifies the type of the conversation. +See the +.Dv sudo.CONV.* +constants below. +.It Fa msg +The message to display to the user. +The caller must include a trailing newline in +.Fa msg +if one is to be displayed. +.It Fa timeout +Optional. +The maximum amount of time for the conversation in seconds. +If the timeout is exceeded, the +.Fn sudo.conv +function will raise a +.Dv sudo.ConversationInterrupted +exception. +The default is to wait forever (no timeout). +.El +.Pp +To specify the message type, the following constants are available: +.Pp +.Bl -bullet -compact -offset 1n -width 1n +.It +.Dv sudo.CONV.PROMPT_ECHO_OFF +.It +.Dv

+.Xr sudo_plugin @mansectform@ +manual for a description of the message types. +.Pp +The +.Fn sudo.conv +function performs the actual user interaction: +.Bd -literal -offset 4n +sudo.conv(message(s), on_suspend=suspend_function, + on_resume=resume_function) +.Ed +.Pp +The function arguments are as follows: +.Bl -tag -width 4n +.It Fa message(s) +One of more messages (of type +.Dv sudo.ConvMessage ) , +each describing a conversation. +At least one message is required. +.It Fa on_suspend +An optional callback function which gets called if the conversation +is suspended, for example by the user pressing control-Z. +The specified function must take a single argument which will be filled +with the number of the signal that caused the process to be suspended. +.It Fa on_resume +An optional callback function which gets called when the previously +suspended conversation is resumed. +The specified function must take a single argument which will be filled +with the number of the signal that caused the process to be suspended. +.El +.Pp +The +.Fn sudo.conv +function can raise the following exceptions: +.Bl -tag -width 4n +.It Dv sudo.SudoException +If the conversation fails, for example when the conversation function is not +available. +.It Dv sudo.ConversationInterrupted +If the conversation function returns an error, e.g., the timeout passed +or the user interrupted the conversation by pressing control-C. +.El +.Ss Conversation example +Sudo ships with an example plugin demonstrating the Python conversation API. +To try it, register it by adding the following lines to +.Pa @sysconfdir@/sudo.conf : +.Bd -literal -offset 4n +Plugin python_io @python_plugin@ \e + ModulePath=@EXAMPLES@/example_conversation.py \e + ClassName=ReasonLoggerIOPlugin +.Ed +.Ss Information / error display API +.Bd -literal +sudo.log_info(string(s), sep=" ", end="\en") +sudo.log_error(string(s), sep=" ", end="\en") +.Ed +.Pp +To display information to the user, the +.Fn sudo.log_info +function can be used. +To display error messages, use +.Fn sudo.log_error . +The syntax is similar to the Python +.Fn print +function. +.Pp +The function arguments are as follows: +.Bl -tag -width 4n +.It Fa string(s) +One or more strings to display. +.It Fa sep +An optional string which will be used as the separator between the +specified strings. +The default is a space character, +.Pq Sq \ . +.It Fa end +An optional string which will be displayed at the end of the message. +The default is a new line character +.Pq Sq \en . +.El +.Ss Debug API +Debug messages are not visible to the user and are only logged debugging +is explicitly enabled in +.Xr sudo.conf @mansectform@ . +Python plugins can use the +.Fn sudo.debug +function to make use of +.Nm sudo Ns No 's +debug system. +.Pp +.Em Enabling debugging in sudo.conf +.Pp +To enable debug messages, add a +.Em Debug +line to +.Xr sudo.conf @mansectform@ +with the program set to +.Pa @python_plugin@ . +For example, to store debug output in +.Pa @log_dir@/sudo_python_debug , +use a line like the following: +.Bd -literal -offset 4n +Debug @python_plugin@ @log_dir@/sudo_python_debug \e + plugin@trace,c_calls@trace +.Ed +.Pp +The debug options are in the form of multiple +.Dq subsystem@level +strings, separated by commas +.Pq Sq \&, . +For example to just see the debug output of +.Fn sudo.debug +calls, use: +.Bd -literal -offset 4n +Debug @python_plugin@ @log_dir@/sudo_python_debug plugin@trace +.Ed +.Pp +See +.Xr sudo_conf @mansectform@ +for more details. +.Pp +The most interesting subsystems for Python plugin development are: +.Bl -tag -width 4n +.It Em plugin +Logs each +.Fn sudo.debug +API call. +.It Em py_calls +Logs whenever a C function calls into the python module. +For example, calling the +.Fn __init__ +function. +.It Em c_calls +Logs whenever python calls into a C +.Nm sudo +API function. +.It Em internal +Logs internal functions of the python language wrapper plugin. +.It Em sudo_cb +Logs when +.Nm sudo +calls into the python plugin API. +.It Em load +Logs python plugin loading / unloading events. +.El +.Pp +You can also specify +.Dq all +as the subsystem name to log debug messages for all subsystems. +.Pp +The +.Fn sudo.debug +function is defined as: +.Bd -literal -offset 4n +sudo.debug(level, message(s)) +.Ed +.Pp +The function arguments are as follows: +.Bl -tag -width 4n +.It Fa level +an integer, use one of the log level constants below +.It Fa message(s) +one or more messages to log +.El +.Pp +.Em Available log levels: +.Bl -column "name in sudo.conf" "Python constant"

Ta very extreme verbose debugging +.El +.Pp +.Em Using the logging module +.Pp +Alternatively, a plugin can use the built in logging module of Python as well. +Sudo adds its log handler to the root logger, so by default all output of a +logger will get forwarded to sudo log system, as it would call sudo.debug. +.Pp +The log handler of sudo will map each Python log level of a message to +the appropriate sudo debug level. +The sudo debug system will only receive messages that are not filtered +out by the Python loggers. +For example, the log level of the python logger will be an additional +filter for the log messages, and is usually very different from +what level is set in sudo.conf for the sudo debug system. +.Ss Debug example +Sudo ships with an example debug plugin. +To try it, register it by adding the following lines to +.Pa @sysconfdir@/sudo.conf : +.Bd -literal -offset 4n +Plugin python_io @python_plugin@ \e + ModulePath=@EXAMPLES@/example_debugging.py \e + ClassName=DebugDemoPlugin + +Debug @python_plugin@ \e + @log_dir@/sudo_python_debug plugin@trace,c_calls@trace +.Ed +.Ss Option conversion API +The Python plugin API includes two convenience functions to +convert options in +.Dq key=value +format to a dictionary and vice versa. +.Bl -tag -width 4n +.It options_as_dict +.Bd -literal -compact +options_as_dict(options) +.Ed +.Pp +The function arguments are as follows: +.Bl -tag -width 4n +.It Fa options +An iterable (tuple, list, etc.) of strings, each in +.Dq key=value +format. +This is how the plugin API passes options and settings to a Python plugin. +.El +.Pp +The function returns the resulting dictionary. +Each string of the passed in +.Fa options +will be split at the first equal sign +.Pq Sq \&= +into a +.Em key +and +.Em value . +Dictionary keys will never contain this symbol (but values may). +.It options_from_dict +.Bd -literal -compact +options_from_dict(options_dict) +.Ed +.Pp +The function arguments are as follows: +.Bl -tag -width 4n +.It Fa options_dict +A dictionary where both the key and the value are strings. +The key should not contain an equal sign +.Pq Sq \&= , +otherwise the resulting string will have a different meaning. +However, this is not currently enforced. +.El +.Pp +The function returns a tuple containing the strings in +.Dq key=value +form for each key and value in the +.Fa options_dict +dictionary passed in. +This is how the plugin API accepts options and settings. +.El +.Sh PLUGIN API CHANGELOG (Python) +None yet +.Sh LIMITATIONS +A maximum of 8 python I/O plugins can be loaded at once. +If +.Pa @sysconfdir@/sudo.conf +contains more, those will be rejected with a warning message. +.Pp +The Event API and the hook function API is currently not accessible +for Python plugins. +.Sh
