# Getting Started What follows are some guides how to start the `pykms_Server.py` script, which provides the emulated server. ## Running as a service *** You can simply manage a daemon that runs as a background process. This can be achieved by using any of the notes below or by writing your own solution. ### Docker ![docker-auto](https://img.shields.io/docker/cloud/automated/pykmsorg/py-kms) ![docker-status](https://img.shields.io/docker/cloud/build/pykmsorg/py-kms) ![docker-pulls](https://img.shields.io/docker/pulls/pykmsorg/py-kms) ![docker-size](https://img.shields.io/docker/image-size/pykmsorg/py-kms) If you wish to get _py-kms_ just up and running without installing any dependencies or writing own scripts: Just use Docker ! Docker also solves problems regarding the explicit IPv4 and IPv6 usage (it just supports both). The following command will download, "install" and start _py-kms_ and also keep it alive after any service disruption. ```bash docker run -d --name py-kms --restart always -p 1688:1688 pykmsorg/py-kms ``` There are currently three tags of the image available (select one just by appending `:` to the image from above): * `latest`, currently the same like `minimal`. * `minimal`, which is based on the python3 minimal configuration of py-kms. _This tag does NOT include `sqlite` support !_ * `python3`, which is fully configurable and equipped with `sqlite` support and a web interface for management. If you just want to use the image and don't want to build them yourself, you can always use the official image at the [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/pykmsorg/py-kms) (`pykmsorg/py-kms`). To ensure that you are using always the latest version you should check something like [watchtower](https://github.com/containrrr/watchtower) out ! ### Systemd If you are running a Linux distro using `systemd`, create the file: `sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/py3-kms.service`, then add the following (change it where needed) and save: ```systemd [Unit] Description=py3-kms After=network.target StartLimitIntervalSec=0 [Service] Type=simple Restart=always RestartSec=1 KillMode=process User=root ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 /py-kms/pykms_Server.py 0.0.0.0 1688 -V DEBUG -F /pykms_logserver.log [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ``` Check syntax with `sudo systemd-analyze verify py3-kms.service`, correct file permission (if needed) `sudo chmod 644 /etc/systemd/system/py3-kms.service`, then reload systemd manager configuration `sudo systemctl daemon-reload`, start the daemon `sudo systemctl start py3-kms.service` and view its status `sudo systemctl status py3-kms.service`. Check if daemon is correctly running with `cat /pykms_logserver.log`. Finally a few generic commands useful for interact with your daemon [here](https://linoxide.com/linux-how-to/enable-disable-services-ubuntu-systemd-upstart/). ### Etrigan You can run py-kms daemonized (via [Etrigan](https://github.com/SystemRage/Etrigan)) using a command like `python3 pykms_Server.py etrigan start` and stop it with `python3 pykms_Server.py etrigan stop`. With Etrigan you have another way to launch py-kms GUI (specially suitable if you're using a virtualenv), so `python3 pykms_Server.py etrigan start -g` and stop the GUI with `python3 pykms_Server.py etrigan stop` (or interact with the `EXIT` button). ### Upstart (deprecated) If you are running a Linux distro using `upstart` (deprecated), create the file: `sudo nano /etc/init/py3-kms.conf`, then add the following (change it where needed) and save: ``` description "py3-kms" author "SystemRage" env PYTHONPATH=/usr/bin env PYKMSPATH=/py-kms env LOGPATH=/pykms_logserver.log start on runlevel [2345] stop on runlevel [016] exec $PYTHONPATH/python3 $PYKMSPATH/pykms_Server.py 0.0.0.0 1688 -V DEBUG -F $LOGPATH respawn ``` Check syntax with `sudo init-checkconf -d /etc/init/py3-kms.conf`, then reload upstart to recognise this process `sudo initctl reload-configuration`. Now start the service `sudo start py3-kms`, and you can see the logfile stating that your daemon is running: `cat /pykms_logserver.log`. Finally a few generic commands useful for interact with your daemon [here](https://eopio.com/linux-upstart-process-manager/). ### Windows If you are using Windows, to run `pykms_Server.py` as service you need to install [pywin32](https://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/), then you can create a file for example named `kms-winservice.py` and put into it this code: ```python import win32serviceutil import win32service import win32event import servicemanager import socket import subprocess class AppServerSvc (win32serviceutil.ServiceFramework): _svc_name_ = "py-kms" _svc_display_name_ = "py-kms" _proc = None _cmd = ["C:\Windows\Python27\python.exe", "C:\Windows\Python27\py-kms\pykms_Server.py"] def __init__(self,args): win32serviceutil.ServiceFramework.__init__(self,args) self.hWaitStop = win32event.CreateEvent(None,0,0,None) socket.setdefaulttimeout(60) def SvcStop(self): self.killproc() self.ReportServiceStatus(win32service.SERVICE_STOP_PENDING) win32event.SetEvent(self.hWaitStop) def SvcDoRun(self): servicemanager.LogMsg(servicemanager.EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE, servicemanager.PYS_SERVICE_STARTED, (self._svc_name_,'')) self.main() def main(self): self._proc = subprocess.Popen(self._cmd) self._proc.wait() def killproc(self): self._proc.kill() if __name__ == '__main__': win32serviceutil.HandleCommandLine(AppServerSvc) ``` Now in a command prompt type `C:\Windows\Python27\python.exe kms-winservice.py install` to install the service. Display all the services with `services.msc` and find the service associated with _py-kms_, change the startup type from `manual` to `auto`. Finally `Start` the service. If this approach fails, you can try to use [Non-Sucking Service Manager](https://nssm.cc/) or Task Scheduler as described [here](https://blogs.esri.com/esri/arcgis/2013/07/30/scheduling-a-scrip/). ### Other Platforms They might be useful to you: - [FreeNAS](https://github.com/SystemRage/py-kms/issues/56) - [FreeBSD](https://github.com/SystemRage/py-kms/issues/89) ## Manual Execution *** ### Dependencies - Python 3.x. - Tkinter module (for the GUI). - If the `tzlocal` module is installed, the "Request Time" in the verbose output will be converted into local time. Otherwise, it will be in UTC. - It can use the `sqlite3` module, storing activation data in a database so it can be recalled again. - Installation example on Ubuntu / Mint: - `sudo apt-get update` - `sudo apt-get install python3-tk python3-pip` - `sudo pip3 install tzlocal pysqlite3` ### Startup A Linux user with `ip addr` command can get his KMS IP (Windows users can try `ipconfig /all`). ```bash user@host ~ $ ip addr 1: lo: mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 ::1/128 scope host valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 2: enp6s0: mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether **:**:**:**:**:** brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.1.102/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global dynamic noprefixroute enp6s0 valid_lft 860084sec preferred_lft 860084sec inet6 ****:****:****:****:****:****:****:****/64 scope global dynamic noprefixroute valid_lft 6653sec preferred_lft 3052sec inet6 ****::****:****:****:****/64 scope link noprefixroute valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever ``` In the example above is `192.168.1.102` the ip we want to listen on, so it is this command (**note you can omit the ip AND port specification if you just wish to listen on all interfaces with port 1688**): ``` user@host ~/path/to/folder/py-kms $ python3 pykms_Server.py 192.168.1.102 1688 ``` To stop `pykms_Server.py`, in the same bash window where code running, simply press `CTRL+C`. Alternatively, in a new bash window, use `kill ` command (you can type `ps aux` first and have the process ) or `killall `. ### Quick Guide The following are just some brief notes about parameters handling. For a more detailed description see [here](Usage.md). - To generate a random HWID use `-w` option: `python3 pykms_Server.py -w RANDOM`. - To get the HWID from any server use the client, for example type: `python3 pykms_Client.py :: 1688 -m Windows8.1 -V INFO`. - To change your logfile path use `-F` option, for example: `python3 pykms_Server.py -F /path/to/your/logfile.log -V DEBUG`. - To view a minimal set of logging information use `-V MININFO` option, for example: `python3 pykms_Server.py -F /path/to/your/logfile.log -V MININFO`. - To redirect logging on stdout use `-F STDOUT` option, for example: `python3 pykms_Server.py -F STDOUT -V DEBUG`. - You can create logfile and view logging information on stdout at the same time with `-F FILESTDOUT` option, for example: `python3 pykms_Server.py -F FILESTDOUT /path/to/your/logfile.log -V DEBUG`. - With `-F STDOUTOFF` you disable all stdout messages (but a logfile will be created), for example: `python3 pykms_Server.py -F STDOUTOFF /path/to/your/logfile.log -V DEBUG`. - With `-F FILEOFF` you disable logfile creation. - Select timeout (seconds) for py-kms with `-t0` option, for example `python3 pykms_Server.py -t0 10`. - Option `-y` enables printing asynchronously of messages (pretty / logging).
