In the end, you can decouple your VISA instrument hosting where you need bare metal nodes and the test script runner.\n\n## Getting started\n\n### Installation\n\nUsing pip:\n\n```shell\npip install pyvisa-proxy\n```\n\n### Server\n\nIn order to make devices remotely available, just run the PyVISA-remote server on your node. The server will open new VISA resources per request. Just run\n\n```shell\npython -m pyivsa_proxy --port 5000\n```\n\nin order to host your \"local\" connections. Use any available port for network sharing.\n\n### Client\n\nUse a client like a normal PyVISA class. The calls will be forwarded by reflection to the server. In order to get started, use the following snippet in your code.\n\n```python\nimport pyvisa\n\nrm = pyvisa.ResourceManager(\"YourProxyServerIp:YourProxyServerPort@proxy\")\ninstr = rm.open_resource(resource=\"GPIB0::1::INSTR\")\nprint(instr.query(\"*IDN?\"))\n```\n\n## Contributing\n\nI welcome any contributions, enhancements, and bug-fixes.
