Python library and commandline client for communicating with TREZOR
Hardware Wallet
See <https://trezor.io> for more information
## Install
Python-trezor requires Python 3.3 or higher, and libusb 1.0. The easiest
way to install it is with `pip`. The rest of this guide assumes you have
a working `pip`; if not, you can refer to [this
guide](https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/installing-packages/).
### Trezor T only
On a typical Linux / Mac / BSD system, you already have all you need.
Install `trezor` with:
```sh
pip3 install --upgrade setuptools
pip3 install trezor
```
On Windows, you also need to install
[libusb](https://github.com/libusb/libusb/wiki/Windows) and the
appropriate [drivers](https://zadig.akeo.ie/). This is, unfortunately, a
topic bigger than this README.
### Trezor One support
In addition to the above, you need to install development headers for
HIDAPI.
On a Debian or Ubuntu based system, you can install these:
```sh
sudo apt-get install python3-dev python3-pip cython3 libusb-1.0-0-dev libudev-dev
```
When installing the trezor library, you need to specify that you want
`hidapi`:
```sh
pip3 install --upgrade setuptools
pip3 install trezor[hidapi]
```
### Ethereum support
Ethereum requires additional python packages. Instead of
`pip3 install trezor`, specify `pip3 install trezor[ethereum]`.
You can combine it with the above, to get both HIDAPI and Ethereum
support:
```sh
pip3 install trezor[ethereum,hidapi]
```
### FreeBSD
On FreeBSD you can install the packages:
```sh
pkg install security/py-trezor
```
or build via ports:
```sh
cd /usr/ports/security/py-trezor
make install clean
```
## Command line client (trezorctl)
The included `trezorctl` python script can perform various tasks such as
changing setting in the Trezor, signing transactions, retrieving account
info and addresses. See the [docs/](docs/) sub folder for detailed
examples and options.
NOTE: An older version of the `trezorctl` command is [available for
Debian Stretch](https://packages.debian.org/en/stretch/python-trezor)
(and comes pre-installed on [Tails OS](https://tails.boum.org/)).
## Python Library
You can use this python library to interact with a Bitcoin Trezor and
use its capabilities in your application. See examples here in the
[tools/](tools/) sub folder.
## PIN Entering
When you are asked for PIN, you have to enter scrambled PIN. Follow the
numbers shown on TREZOR display and enter the their positions using the
numeric keyboard mapping:
| | | |
|---|---|---|
| 7 | 8 | 9 |
| 4 | 5 | 6 |
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
Example: your PIN is **1234** and TREZOR is displaying the following:
| | | |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | 8 | 3 |
| 5 | 4 | 6 |
| 7 | 9 | 1 |
You have to enter: **3795**
## Contributing
Python-trezor pulls coins info and protobuf messages from
[trezor-common](https://github.com/trezor/trezor-common) repository. If
you are developing new features for Trezor, you will want to start
there. Once your changes are accepted to `trezor-common`, you can make a
PR against this repository. Don't forget to update the submodule with:
```sh
git submodule update --init --remote
```
Then, rebuild the protobuf messages and get `coins.json` by running:
```sh
python3 setup.py prebuild
```
To get support for BTC-like coins, these steps are enough and no further
changes to the library are necessary.
