ESAPI and ESAPIX

Open mauede33 opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

I have started to play with Visual Studio and C#. My goal is to learn to write scripts that use ESAPI. I watched several webinars covering ESAPI as well as ESAPIX. I would like to know the difference between ESAPI and ESAPIX. What I can do with ESAPIX and what I can do with ESAPI. Thank you in advance.

ESAPI (Eclipse Scripting API) is the API that you use to connect to eclipse in order to get patients, plans and so on from eclipse through scripting. You use ESAPI to get access to the data and manipulate the data you see in eclipse. ESAPIX is a exstention to ESAPI made by Rex Cardan that uses the ESAPI api. ESAPIX adds more features to ESAPI like making it possible to run plugin scripts outside of eclipse and running your ESAPI code asyncron and much more. So you can not use ESAPIX without ESAPI. ESAPI is the main thing and ESAPIX is the ad on. https://github.com/rexcardan/ESAPIX
