<h1>JMRI: Open Scripting Architecture</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>On macOS, you can use the Open Scripting Architecture (OSA) with JMRI to send instructions
|
|
to OS X or other applications.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can embed or call OSA scripts within JMRI scripts, invoking them to have your Mac
|
|
perform functions outside JMRI. An example of this is in the <a href=
|
|
"https://www.jmri.org/jython/AppleScript.py">AppleScript.py</a> sample script distributed with
|
|
JMRI. It executes a simple AppleScript:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre style="font-family: monospace;">
|
|
tell application "Finder"
|
|
make new folder at desktop
|
|
end tell
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>The sample script shows how to do this, and can easily form the basis for running your own
|
|
OSA scripts from within JMRI.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>JMRI 4.5.2 or newer can directly call AppleScript without embedding it in another script
|
|
by adding <a href="https://jmri.github.io/applescript/">JMRI AppleScript Support</a> to your
|
|
JMRI installation. Note that this may not work in future versions of macOS or Java.</p>
|
|
|
