It has no graphic/console interface. All low-level actions to OS are perfoming by the Robot tool in OpenRPA. # How to use You can use the robot by the several ways: - In Python script - In Studio script (n/a) ## Create python script In order to use robot just add Robot tool folder in work directory and add line "import GUI" in your script. ### Example > import sys
> sys.path.append('../../')

## Execute python script The OpenRPA is fully portable solution. It contains own python enviroment both 32 and 64 bit versions. So, you can execute your python script in several ways: - Execute in python x32 (\OpenRPA\Resources\WPy32-3720\python-3.7.2) - Execute in python x64 (\OpenRPA\Resources\WPy64-3720\python-3.7.2.amd64) - Execute from .cmd file ### Execute in the Python x32 To execute your python script in x32 bit version just write in command line from x32 python directory:
> cd "\OpenRPA\Resources\WPy32-3720\python-3.7.2"
> python.exe "path to your python script.py"
### Execute in the Python x64 To execute your python script in x32 bit version just write in command line from x32 python directory:
> cd "\OpenRPA\Resources\WPy64-3720\python-3.7.2.amd64"
> python.exe "path to your python script.py"
### Execute from .cmd file In order to simplify the execution process you can write several code lines in file with the .cmd extansion:
> cd %~dp0 > copy /Y ..\Resources\WPy32-3720\python-3.7.2\python.exe ..\Resources\WPy32-3720\python-3.7.2\OpenRPAOrchestrator.exe > .\..\Resources\WPy32-3720\python-3.7.2\OpenRPAOrchestrator.exe orchestratorMain.py > pause >nul ## Use in studio script (n/a) > import sys
> sys.path.append('../../')
> import GUI
> import keyboard
> import subprocess
> import time
> > #Highlight the UI Object in Folder explorer
> GUI.UIOSelector_FocusHighlight([{"class_name":"CabinetWClass","backend":"uia"},{"ctrl_index":2},{"ctrl_index":0},{"ctrl_index":2},{"ctrl_index":0}])
> >#Wait 2 seconds
>time.sleep(3)
> >#Loop: get child element of UI List
>for lItem in GUI.UIOSelector_Get_UIO([{"class_name":"CabinetWClass","backend":"uia"},{"ctrl_index":2},{"ctrl_index":0},{"ctrl_index":2},{"ctrl_index":0}]).children():
>         print(str(lItem))
