## Introduction
The Robotic Process Automation (RPA) supposes the doing of things in a way as human does it, via UI elements. But the
work with different document formats or services such as Excel, PDF, Google Docs, etc. can be done without actual
manipulation with UI elements. If RPA platform supports describing of robot scenarios based on the one of popular
program language like Java, the automation of these things can be done using tens of existing functional libraries
and APIs. Such approach allows significantly speedup the robot work and increase performance. At the same time, if you
are not familiar with these libraries it takes much time to find them and investigate. Moreover, the found
functionality will be poorly adapted for usage in the code of robot scenarios. As result the using of functional
libraries and APIs can become a nightmare.
**EasyRPA Open Framework** is a collection of open-source Java-libraries for Robotic Process Automation designed to be
used with [EasyRPA](http://easyrpa.eu) platform. It keeps in one place libraries to work with most popular document
formats and services. The functionality is clear and easy to use with minimal amount of preparation or configuration
steps in the code that ``significantly simplifies development of RPA processes.
The project is:
- 100% Open Source
- Optimized for EasyRPA platform
- Accepting external contributions
## Usage
EasyRPA Open Framework consist of several independent libraries. All of them are deployed on Maven Central repository.
In order to use any of EasyRPA Open Framework's library you need simply add it as a dependency in your Maven POM file.
E.g.:
```xml
eu.easyrpa
easy-rpa-openframework-email
1.0.0
```
Additionally, to let libraries collaborate with RPA platform it's necessary to add as dependency corresponding adapter.
Since this framework initially was intended and optimized to work with EasyRPA platform currently only adapter for
EasyRPA platform is implemented and supported.
```xml
eu.easyrpa
easy-rpa-adapter-for-openframework
2.7.0
```
> There is no limitation to implement similar adapter for any other RPA platform that uses Java program language for
> describing of robot scenarios but it's out of this project scope.
