itoolkit is a Python interface to the XMLSERVICE toolkit for the IBM i platform.
from itoolkit import *
from itoolkit.transport import DatabaseTransport
import ibm_db_dbi
conn = ibm_db_dbi.connect()
itransport = DatabaseTransport(conn)
itool = iToolKit()
itool.add(iCmd5250('wrkactjob', 'WRKACTJOB'))
itool.call(itransport)
wrkactjob = itool.dict_out('wrkactjob')
print(wrkactjob)For more, check out the samples.
- Call ILE programs & service programs

🚨 WARNING WARNING WARNING 🚨
Due to limitations in XMLSERVICE, using iLibCall in a 64-bit process results in failure. See this bug for more info.
