Description: # Azure IoT Device SDK
        
        The Azure IoT Device SDK for Python provides functionality for communicating with the Azure IoT Hub for both Devices and Modules.
        
        ## Azure IoT Device Features
        
        The SDK provides the following clients:
        
        * ### Provisioning Device Client
        
          * Creates a device identity on the Azure IoT Hub
        
        * ### IoT Hub Device Client
        
          * Send telemetry messages to Azure IoT Hub
          * Receive Cloud-to-Device (C2D) messages from the Azure IoT Hub
          * Receive and respond to direct method invocations from the Azure IoT Hub
        
        * ### IoT Hub Module Client
        
          * Supports Azure IoT Edge Hub and Azure IoT Hub
          * Send telemetry messages to a Hub or to another Module
          * Receive Input messages from a Hub or other Modules
          * Receive and respond to direct method invocations from a Hub or other Modules
        
        These clients are available with an asynchronous API, as well as a blocking synchronous API for compatibility scenarios. **We recommend you use Python 3.7+ and the asynchronous API.**
        
        | Python Version | Asynchronous API | Synchronous API |
        | -------------- | ---------------- | --------------- |
        | Python 3.5.3+  | **YES**          | **YES**         |
        | Python 2.7     | NO               | **YES**         |
        
        ## Installation
        
        ```Shell
        pip install azure-iot-device
        ```
        
        ## Device Samples
        
        Check out the [samples repository](./azure-iot-device/samples) for example code showing how the SDK can be used in a variety of scenarios, including:
        
        * Sending multiple telemetry messages at once.
        * Receiving Cloud-to-Device messages.
        * Using Edge Modules with the Azure IoT Edge Hub.
        * Send and receive updates to device twin
        * Receive invocations to direct methods
        * Register a device with the Device Provisioning Service
        
        ## Getting help and finding API docs
        
        Our SDK makes use of docstrings which means you cand find API documentation directly through Python with use of the [help](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#help) command:
        
        ```python
        >>> from azure.iot.device import IoTHubDeviceClient
        >>> help(IoTHubDeviceClient)
        ```
