• Cross-platform support (Linux, Windows, macOS)
• Supports multiple CAN interfaces (SocketCAN, Kvaser, PCAN, etc.)
• Concise API design, easy to get started
• Rich examples and documentation

Installation

pip install python-can

Quick Start

import can

# Create CAN bus interface
bus = can.interface.Bus(channel='can0', bustype='socketcan')

# Send frame
msg = can.Message(arbitration_id=0x123, data=[0x11, 0x22, 0x33, 0x44])
bus.send(msg)

# Receive frame
recv_msg = bus.recv(timeout=1.0)
if recv_msg:
    print(f"Received: {recv_msg}")
