# Mainframe3270Library

## Introduction

Mainframe3270 is a library for Robot Framework based on the [py3270 project](https://pypi.org/project/py3270/), a Python interface to x3270, an IBM 3270 terminal emulator. It provides an API to a x3270 or s3270 subprocess.

## Compatibility
Mainframe3270 requires Python 3. It is tested with Python 3.7 and 3.10, but should support all versions in between these.

## Installation

In order to use this library, first install the package from [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/robotframework-mainframe3270/).
```commandline
pip install robotframework-mainframe3270
```

Or you can upgrade with:
```commandline
pip install --upgrade robotframework-mainframe3270
```

Then, depending on your OS, proceed with the corresponding chapters in this README.

### Windows

You need to install the [x3270 project](http://x3270.bgp.nu/index.html) and put the directory on your PATH.

The default folder is "C:\Program Files\wc3270". This needs to be in the `PATH` environment variable.

### Unix

You can install the x3270 project from [the instructions page](http://x3270.bgp.nu/Build.html#Unix). Or if it is available in your distribution through:
```commandline
sudo apt-get install x3270
```
or
```commandline
brew install x3270
```

More information can be found on the [Wiki page](https://github.com/Altran-PT-GDC/Robot-Framework-Mainframe-3270-Library/wiki/Installation) of this project.
