# pylawson

This package exposes a Python API to connect to Infor Lawson IOS services.

The `pylawson.client` package contains Session objects for authenticating on the lawson server:
`sec_api.SecApiSession` for Windows utilizes the `sec-api.dll` library which is installed with
the Lawson Excel Add-Ins; and `ms_samlpr.SamlSession` which uses `requests` to robotically
authenticate through the SAML login session.

Simple use:

First create a json file with connection details (each value is optional and can alternatively
be passed directly to the session instantiation):

```json
{
  "lawson": {
    "lawson_server": "https://target.resource/sso/SSOServlet",
    "ident_server": "http://identity.provider/adfs",
    "ident_host": "identity.provider",
    "username": "username",
    "password": "password"
  }
}
```

Then write a couple of lines of code:

```python
from pylawson.client import SamlSession as Ios

lawson = Ios(json_file='./pylawson.json')
response = lawson.tokens({'systemCode': 'GL'})
```

This authenticates on the server and returns Lawson's XML response in a string with the result
of a ListTokens action for the GL system.

**NOTE:** The IOS URLs and parameters are documented in Infor's *'Doc for Developers: IOS Application
Program Interfaces--Windows'* available on the Infor Xtreme support site.
