Use scripting interface

This section explains how to work with the Dimensions CM dmpmcli scripting interface on UNIX and Windows platforms.

The dmpmcli process modeling scripting interface provides a set of Java classes that expose Dimensions CM components using a simple and consistent object model.

The object model is primarily intended for use by scripting languages hosted in the JVM (Java Virtual Machine), such as JavaScript, Python, or Tcl. The current scripting interface includes Rhino, an open-source Java-based JavaScript interpreter from Mozilla, and sample scripts that demonstrate the available functionality.

For details, see the following topics:

• Supported Dimensions CM components

• Use the scripting interface shell

• Use the object model

• Web-based API documentation

• Example dmpmcli scripts

For details about supported platforms and environments, see the Support Matrix.

For details about the tasks you can perform using dmpmcli, see Administration.
