We want to have a simple configuration option that allows choosing where the captured data is sent.
@ruffk where do you want your data sent, loopback/local ip? Any feedback on this would be great.

something like
sendt = {'url': 192.168.1.1 # url, ip or loopback username: xyz, password: xyz api_key: xyx}

Are you thinking this library will run basically as a stand-alone service gathering packets and sending them to the configured destination? That might be ideal / necessary for a web based app, but not for a GUI app running on Windows or Mac. People won't want to run something separate. I would just want to import this library and be able to dynamically start/stop it based upon my app's configuration (sent as parameters) to the start method. Since it seems Python does support events, the library could trigger separate events for InboundPlayer, OutboundPlayer, PlayerEnteringWorld, etc. Seems pretty clean to me.

The library is shaping up nicely. I'm hoping to actually start writing some UI code soon so that the library can further mature. I pre-compiled two versions of the pcapy-ng library and uploaded them to PyPi so that we can make it easier on everyone to use this. That was the most painful part lol.
