This project is a small and simple wrapper to access ProSim using Python.
The implementation benefits from pythonnet to import ProSim SDK and wrap around some of its methods. For more special usages, the SDK class can also be accessed directly.
The idea of this implementation is to create a simple and fast access to all datarefs in order to connect then with external hardware.
For convenience I have included the ProSim SDK DLL file in this project, nevertheless the SDK can be found here:
https://download.prosim-ar.com/ProSimSDK/
Use Python 3.11 or above.
To run the examples I recommend to use a virtual environment of your choice.
Update pip and install requirements:
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txtpip install .Notes: The examples has been tested with ProSim B738 version 3.29 this means the datarefs used in the examples may not be available in your ProSim. If this is the case please use a valid dataref for your sim for the sake of testing.
Before running any example, please install this module as indicated in the previous section.
In the root directory of this repository run:
python examples/<name of the example here>.pyContributing is always welcome, please submit the issues/improvements to this project to keep a good documentation.

ProSim provides many features which can be accessed from their SDK. Not all features have been implemented, but this implementation is a good basis to start something bigger (I believe).
- Error handling can be improved digesting the original ProSim exception to extract the reason of failure and finally create a pyprosim exception class. (Just thinking loud)
