Motivation
Using wpa_supplicant
as the authetification software of Wi-Fi network,
every time I connect the new network, I have to edit its configuration file
(ex. wpa_supplicant.conf
). Editing it manually is very time-consuming for me,
So I made the shell-script program wifi-entries-setup
to add the new Wi-Fi entry to
the assigned configuration file.
Features
- Input Wi-Fi entry (
SSID
,[Passphrase]
) are added to the assigned configuration file (ex.wpa_supplicant.conf
) - On root priviledge input SSID and Passphrase (optional) interactively following the prompt
Usage
Usage: wifi-entries-setup [-h]
Get the root privilege and execute wifi-entries-setup
.
Input SSID and Passphrase (optional) interactively following the prompt.
- Passphrase is not given, then the entry is registered as the open network.
- If the command executed with
-h
option, the help message is appeared.
Example
Add the wireless network whose SSID and passphrase are "foo" and "foobarbaz", respectively.
# wifi-entries-setup Starting to scan WiFi ... 0: foo 1: bar 2: baz Which SSID is registered? (input by No.) > 0 Input passphrase (default NONE) > foobarbaz Protected Wifi network SSID foo was registered and you can connect.
