rigplane

RigPlane 3.0 is released. A plain pip install rigplane installs it. Upgrading from 2.x? 3.0 requires the radio model (--model); see What's New in 3.0 and the migration guide. Known gaps are listed in 3.0 known limitations. Tried it on your radio? Send a 3.0 report.

rigplane is an open-source (MIT) Python asyncio library and web UI for Icom radios (LAN/USB) and the Yaesu FTX-1 (USB), with a rigctld server. It has native providers for Icom CI-V and Yaesu CAT paths. The rigctld server lets Hamlib-aware programs such as WSJT-X, fldigi and JS8Call control the radio.

Quickstart

pip install rigplane
rigplane --model IC-7610 web   # discovers the radio's IP on the LAN
# open http://localhost:8080

Or as a library:

import asyncio
from rigplane import create_radio, LanBackendConfig

async def main():
    async with create_radio(LanBackendConfig(host="192.168.1.100",
                                             username="user",
                                             password="pass",
                                             model="IC-7610")) as radio:
        await radio.set_frequency(14_074_000)
        await radio.set_mode("USB")
        print(await radio.get_s_meter())

asyncio.run(main())

Native radio capabilities are declared in rigs/*.toml. For long-tail serial CAT radios, the intended path is Hamlib-backed control underneath RigPlane's capability model, with structured discovery candidates and safe read-only probing where possible. See adding a new radio.
