Download

Python module is distributed as part of Gammu so to download it just get Gammu. If you want to use binary package, the daemon might be included in separate binary package in your distribution, try looking for something like python-gammu.

Example

Using python-gammu is quite simple, for example sending of the text message can be done by following snippet:

import gammu

sm = gammu.StateMachine()
sm.ReadConfig()
sm.Init()

message = {
    'Text': 'python-gammu testing message', 
    'SMSC': {'Location': 1},
    'Number': '+420800123465',
}

sm.SendSMS(message)
