I used this app but I get this bug

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\Scripts\wifi-password-script.py", line 33, in <module>
    sys.exit(load_entry_point('wifi-password==1.0.7', 'console_scripts', 'wifi-password')())

    password = re.findall(r"Key Content\s+:\s(.*)", password)[0]
IndexError: list index out of range

That's why I added this.

def get_password(ssid):
    if ssid == "":
        print_error("SSID is not defined")

    if sys.platform == "darwin":
        password = run_command(f"security find-generic-password -l \"{ssid}\" -D 'AirPort network password' -w")
        password = password.replace("\n", "")

    elif sys.platform == "linux":
        # Check if the user is running with super user privilages
        if os.geteuid() != 0:
            password = run_command(f"sudo nmcli -s -g 802-11-wireless-security.psk connection show '{ssid}'")
        else:
            password = run_command(f"nmcli -s -g 802-11-wireless-security.psk connection show '{ssid}'")

        password = password.replace("\n", "")

    elif sys.platform == "win32":
        password = run_command(f"netsh wlan show profile name=\"{ssid}\" key=clear | findstr Key").replace("\r", "")
        try:
            password = re.findall(r"Key Content\s+:\s(.*)", password)[0]
        except IndexError:
            password = ""
    if password == "":
        print_error("Could not find password")

    return password

It isn't work at wifi_password

#  rikasai @ huacainoMBP in ~ [22:27:59]
$ wifi_password
zsh: command not found: wifi_password

But work at python -m wifi_password

# rikasai @ huacainoMBP in ~ [22:27:30]
$ python -m wifi_password

Hi, After some tests with your tool, I discovered a little problem for some setups.

To detect SSID, it's using nmcli -t -f active,ssid dev wifi | egrep '^yes' | cut -d\: -f2. The problem is that nmcli -t -f active,ssid dev wifi output depends of language. In english it will return SSID yes/no but for example in french it return SSID oui/non.

To fix that I'm forcing the language using LANG env variable.

Hi,

I do not know why no matter what SSID I put in as input, it keeps saying IndexError for some reason.

my OS is Windows 10 my python version is 3.9.0 my wifi-password version is 1.0.9

when I ran wifi-password --qrcode --image the image was saved to my home directory so I added a CLI parameter so the user can control which directory the image will be saved to

This PR includes a set of changes to list saved networks (see item #28 ) on Windows, it also moves most functions into a utils.py file so they can be reused more efficiently.

Added comments to each function to understand what they do.

Please note that this changes are only made for Windows platform, it is pending to implement the changes for Linux and MacOS.

Why not I get qrcode image?

I get only Unknown String

What is ploblem?

my OS is Windows 10 my python version is 3.9.0 my wifi-password version is 1.0.7

If I run sudo wifi-password I get

ERROR: Could not find password

This is because my AP's name has a space inside (e.g: John DoeWifi)

If I create a new AP and name it JohnDoeWifi, I successfully get the result

password123

The program doesn't take into consideration that there may be an SSID with space inside the name. Only SSIDs with no space are read.

I just installed the package with python -m pip install --user wifi-password. When I run wifi-password -q -i the following exception is thrown:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Bob\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages\qrcode\image\pil.py", line 6, in <module>
    from PIL import Image, ImageDraw

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

This PR should bring it back to being able to work with any linux install using NetworkManager, with the added bonus of not relying on wireless-tools. This should resolve #17 and #11

However this program will still be unable to function on a linux install that does not use NetworkManager, such as wicd or connman, or on the Raspberry Pi. The most likely scenario for supporting those is writing special cases for each, though I did not go through the effort in this commit.

Maybe its also worth merging into its own branch to get some more testing instead of merging directly to master?

version: 1.0.2

IS: calling wifi-password with -i or --image shows the password in the terminal.

SHOULD: show the qr code as an image

SUGGESTION: let the user specify a name and/or a path including the file extension(.jpeg, .png, etc.). If no extension is give or the extension is invalid, fall back to a default extension.

[janst@jan-pc wifi-password]$ wifi-password -i
ERROR: You need to run '/usr/bin/wifi-password' as root

[janst@jan-pc wifi-password]$ wifi-password --image
ERROR: You need to run '/usr/bin/wifi-password' as root

[janst@jan-pc wifi-password]$ sudo wifi-password -i

[janst@jan-pc wifi-password]$ sudo wifi-password --image

Hi!

I appreciate the work you put in this, but sadly it doesn't work for me.

I'm using Kubuntu 22.04 and the WiFi is a hidden network. If I run the command nmcli -s -g 802-11-wireless-security.psk connection show '{ssid}' manually, it outputs the password though. Do I have to set up something first?

Thanks in advance! Greetings, Noah Streller

由于得到的字符串是中文的，所以需要换一种方式去解析

    elif sys.platform == "win32":
        password = run_command(f"netsh wlan show profile name=\"{ssid}\" key=clear")
        password_line = password.split("\r\n")[32]
        password = password_line[(password_line.find(":") if password_line.find(":") != -1 else password_line.find("："))+ 1:].rstrip().lstrip()

另外由于PowerShell输出流编码为GBK，所以不同平台的解码也需要考虑

Windows 10

run_command方法中的返回语句字符集需要修改为“gbk” return output.decode("gbk").rstrip("\r\n")

get_password方法中，判断为"win32“的分支需要修改 elif sys.platform == "win32": password = run_command(f"netsh wlan show profile name="{ssid}" key=clear") password = re.findall(r"关键内容\s+:\s(.*)", password)[0]

Found some details here: https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-and-Python

Let me know if you like the idea! I can have a look to see what it takes and raise a PR.
