New page

The ot script interpreter ("ot") has access to the entire OT Client API, including the low-level ''and'' high-level APIs. In fact, the [[Opentxs|opentxs]] command-line tool itself is written in ot script, just like any other script.

To make your own OT script, create a text file, and <code>chmod u+x filename</code> in order to be able to run it as an executable. Then put this shebang at the top of the file: <code>#!/usr/bin/env ot</code>

Now you can run that file like any other executable, just type: <code>./filename</code> and the script will execute as an OT client, with full access to the OT [[API|low-level API]] as well as the OT [[Use Cases|high-level API]].

OT is easy! Even a trained monkey can write OT-based scripts and client applications! If you want to see how the high-level API is used, check out the [https://github.com/FellowTraveler/Open-Transactions/blob/master/scripts/ot/ot_commands.ot code for the opentxs CLI tool] for example functions demonstrating all of the OT functionality. (In fact, you can actually CALL all those functions from your own OT scripts.)
