FAIL2BAN-PYTHON(1) User Commands FAIL2BAN-PYTHON(1)
NAME
fail2ban-python - a helper for Fail2Ban to assure that the same Python is used
DESCRIPTION
usage: fail2ban-python [option] ... [-c cmd | -m mod | file | -] [arg] ... Options and
arguments (and corresponding environment variables): -B : don't write .py[co] files on
import; also PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=x -c cmd : program passed in as string (terminates
option list) -d : debug output from parser; also PYTHONDEBUG=x -E : ignore PYTHON*
environment variables (such as PYTHONPATH) -h : print this help message and exit (also
--help) -i : inspect interactively after running script; forces a prompt even
if stdin does not appear to be a terminal; also PYTHONINSPECT=x
-m mod : run library module as a script (terminates option list) -O : optimize gener-
ated bytecode slightly; also PYTHONOPTIMIZE=x -OO : remove doc-strings in addition to
the -O optimizations -R : use a pseudo-random salt to make hash() values of various
types be
unpredictable between separate invocations of the interpreter, as a defense against
denial-of-service attacks
-Q arg : division options: -Qold (default), -Qwarn, -Qwarnall, -Qnew -s : don't add
user site directory to sys.path; also PYTHONNOUSERSITE -S : don't imply 'import site'
on initialization -t : issue warnings about inconsistent tab usage (-tt: issue errors)
-u : unbuffered binary stdout and stderr; also PYTHONUNBUFFERED=x
see man page for details on internal buffering relating to '-u'
-v : verbose (trace import statements); also PYTHONVERBOSE=x
can be supplied multiple times to increase verbosity
-V : print the Python version number and exit (also --version) -W arg : warning con-
trol; arg is action:message:category:module:lineno
also PYTHONWARNINGS=arg
-x : skip first line of source, allowing use of non-Unix forms of #!cmd -3 : warn
about Python 3.x incompatibilities that 2to3 cannot trivially fix file : program read
from script file - : program read from stdin (default; interactive mode if a tty) arg
...: arguments passed to program in sys.argv[1:]
Other environment variables: PYTHONSTARTUP: file executed on interactive startup (no de-
fault) PYTHONPATH : ':'-separated list of directories prefixed to the
default module search path.
The result is sys.path.
PYTHONHOME : alternate <prefix> directory (or <prefix>:<exec_prefix>).
The default module search path uses <prefix>/pythonX.X.
PYTHONCASEOK : ignore case in 'import' statements (Windows). PYTHONIOENCODING: Encod-
ing[:errors] used for stdin/stdout/stderr. PYTHONHASHSEED: if this variable is set to
'random', the effect is the same
as specifying the -R option: a random value is used to seed the hashes of str,
bytes and datetime objects. It can also be set to an integer in the range
[0,4294967295] to get hash values with a predictable seed.
