Description: 
        DiscoNet Package
        ################
        
        DiscoNet scans specified subnets and IPs for SSH servers that can be accessed with the
        provided credentials and executes an arbitrary list of commands.
        
        The process of scanning networks and collecting command output is built on a multiprocess
        architecture, so DiscoNet can rapidly scan through management and loopback subnets,
        populating an xlsx workbook with the output.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        Install DiscoNet using the latest version of setuptools and pip::
        
            $ pip install --upgrade setuptools pip
            $ pip install DiscoNet
        
        You can also opt to install the DiscoNet GUI which uses to Kivy library. To install it,
        you will first need to follow the `Kivy Installation Instructions <https://kivy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/installation.html>`_ for your platform.
        Then install DiscoNet with the GUI marker::
        
            $ pip install DiscoNet[kivy]
        
        Binary distributions for OS X and Windows are available `here <https://github.com/jasmas/DiscoNet/releases>`_.
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        The GUI and command line application take several input parameters:
            * workbook: Path to output xlsx file
            * subnets: Comma delimited list of networks and IP addresses to scan
            * username: SSH username
            * password: SSH password
            * commands: One per line in the GUI or passed as parameters from the command line
        
        Examples:
            To open the GUI application::
            
                $ python -m DiscoNet
            
            To scan and create a discovery workbook from the command line::
            
                $ python -m DiscoNet.discoveryscan workbook subnets username password commands
            
            A convenience script is included so that the GUI and command line utility can each be
            run using the following commands accordingly::
            
                $ DiscoNet
                $ discoveryscan workbook subnets username password commands ...
            
            Use double quotes for each command and include as many as required, e.g.::
            
                $ discoveryscan out.xlsx 172.16.0.0/24 admin password "show ver" "show run"
        
        API
        ---
        
        To use the module in your own projects, please reference the `API Documentation <https://disconet.readthedocs.io>`_.
        
        Examples:
            Initiate a discovery scan from python::
            
                from DiscoNet.discoveryscan import DiscoveryScan
                
                d = DiscoveryScan(workbook, subnets, username, password, [commands, ...])
                d.start()
                
            The commands parameter should be a list of command strings. The start method will
            block until the scan is complete. Optionally, the start method can be non-blocking
            when supplied with a callback function::
            
                from DiscoNet.discoveryscan import DiscoveryScan
                
                def cb()
                    #callback function
                    return
                
                d = DiscoveryScan(workbook, subnets, username, password, [commands, ...])
                d.start(cb)
