Credential¶
The Credential module allows for fetching of PSN user credentials using the official PS4 2nd Screen App on iOS and Android.
Service¶
The pyps4_2ndscreen.credential.Credentials class is a service to allow fetching of PSN credentials.
Note: The service requires port 987. This is a priveleged port so some operating systems will not allow you to use this port without root/sudo privileges. If you would like to use the service with normal privileges you can try the command below:
sudo setcap ‘cap_net_bind_service=+ep’ /usr/bin/python3.5
This command works for Debian based systems. The /usr/bin/python3.5 should be replaced with the absolute path to your Python interpreter.
