Doubt about Python Apis

Question

Good morning!

I need to make a program that simulates the operation of a "user", these operations are taken based on various circumstances, would have to send code via Linux Terminal and cmd Windows and also observe fields of a assisted system that show alarms (these alarms are shown in the form of images/gifs), I would like to know which Apis currently exist to do such tasks.

Obs.: get this information on account of the assisted system, and many cases when I try to access the memory of it it ends up "bugging" and closing.

The purpose 'and I can develop a software that helps network administrators to stay less time and receive certain information more quickly and securely.

Note: Linux/Windows question, due to the fact that my software has to take information from 2 different operating systems and feed a database.

Answer 1

Man, Python would be a good, because it works on Windows and Linux perfectly.
When you talk about (simulates the operation of a "user") I think about automation, which you can do using Lib:
Pywinauto (https://pywinauto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)
With Pywinauto, you can monitor the desired application, take application values, automate tasks quickly and easily. You can even monitor the Windows Task Manager, so you can, for example: Know which program is consuming the most RAM and close it. Pretty cool, right?

Can be done with Python2 as well, using Lib:
Pyautogui(https://pyautogui.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)
But this lib is very limited. I do not recommend.

These Libs are if automation with Python, I’ve worked with both and they work well.
To display alerts we can use Lib (Win32), very simple example:

import win32api

win32api.MessageBox(0, 'hello', 'title')

To display on linux you can use lib (simple-monitor-Alert).
I guess I took away your doubts, anything you ask then I answer.
