What it is and what it does
This package wraps Apple's AppleScriptObjC framework, which is available on macOS 10.6 and later. It allows Python developers to access AppleScript functionality through Objective-C bindings, primarily for use within AppleScript-based application bundles. The package is part of the larger PyObjC project and depends on pyobjc-core and pyobjc-framework-Cocoa for its core functionality.
The framework is specialized and not intended for general-purpose use—it's designed for developers building AppleScript applications that need Python integration or for Python code that needs to interact with AppleScript-based macOS applications. The package provides raw Objective-C bindings without additional documentation, so users must refer to Apple's framework documentation and PyObjC's general translation guides to understand how to use it.
Use it for
- Extend AppleScript-based macOS application bundles with Python code for additional functionality.
- Call AppleScript functionality from Python when building macOS automation scripts that need AppleScript integration.
- Integrate Python with existing AppleScript workflows in macOS environments.
- Access AppleScriptObjC framework features from Python for specialized macOS application development.
