# cw-rpa — The cw-rpa package provides reusable functions/common utilities for developing CW RPA bots.

License: unclear · Maintenance: aging · Downloads: 1.2M/mo

## What it is and what it does

cw-rpa is a utility library for building Robotic Process Automation bots, providing three main modules: Input (for collecting and processing form data), Logger (for writing execution logs to Result.txt and result.json with multiple severity levels), and HttpClient (for making HTTP requests and validating payloads against required fields). The library is designed to accelerate bot development by offering pre-built components that handle common RPA tasks like input collection, structured logging, and API interactions.

The package depends only on requests and is distributed as a pure Python wheel, making installation straightforward. However, the maintenance signal is weak—the package is aging with no visible repository, documentation, or homepage links in its metadata. The license treatment is unclear, and Python version support is unspecified, both of which should be clarified before adopting it in production workflows.

Use it for:

- Collect and validate user inputs from form data within an RPA bot workflow.
- Log bot execution flow, errors, and results to both text and JSON files for monitoring and debugging.
- Make authenticated HTTP requests to third-party APIs (e.g., Microsoft Graph) with payload validation.
- Build bots that create or manage cloud resources by orchestrating API calls with structured logging.
- Standardize logging and error handling across multiple RPA bot projects within an organization.

## Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts above — verify before relying.

Provides utility modules for building Robotic Process Automation bots, including input handling, logging to files and JSON, and HTTP client functionality for API interactions.

Yes, with conditions. The package offers useful abstractions for common RPA tasks (input handling, logging, HTTP requests) and has low install friction. However, verify the license terms before use, confirm Python version compatibility, and assess whether the aging maintenance status and lack of visible documentation are acceptable for your use case. Suitable for internal or partner-driven RPA projects where these gaps are tolerable.

## Install

pip install cw-rpa
uv add cw-rpa
poetry add cw-rpa

## Installing cw-rpa

Before you install: Low install friction with a single dependency (requests). Package is aging—last release was 305 days ago—and maintenance status is unclear; no repository or documentation links are available to assess ongoing support.

License in practice: License treatment is unclear; no SPDX identifier or raw license text is provided. Verify licensing terms before use in commercial or proprietary projects.

Quickstart:

pip install cw_rpa

from cw_rpa import Input, Logger, HttpClient

input_module = Input()
username = input_module.get_value("username")

log = Logger()
log.info("Starting bot")

http_client = HttpClient()
http_client.validate_url("https://api.example.com")

Python version compatibility is unspecified; verify your Python version is supported before installation.

Verify before relying:

- Whether the package is actively maintained or has been abandoned despite recent version bump
- Actual Python version compatibility (requires_python is unspecified)
- Whether the package is suitable for production RPA workflows or primarily for internal/partner use
- What authentication mechanisms the HttpClient module supports beyond token management
