RCC logo

RCC is a command-line tool that allows you to create, manage, and distribute Python-based self-contained automation packages - or robots ๐Ÿค– as we call them.

Together with the robot.yaml configuration file, rcc provides the foundation to build and share automation with ease.

In short, the RCC toolchain helps you get rid of the phrase: "Works on my machine" so that you can actually build and run your robots more freely.

RCC manages your environment

RCC removes the need to configure and maintain your Python environment manually. All you need to do is specify the packages you want to use in the conda.yaml file, and they will be installed for you in a lightweight Python virtual environment.

RCC will also take care of caching so that everything runs as fast as possible. Find out more about environment management here.

RCC is open-source software

RCC is at the core of all Robocorp tooling. It is also available for anyone to use under an open-source license, and you can find the source code on GitHub.

Use it to develop and run any automation you can think of! ๐Ÿš€

Quickstart

rcc pull github.com/robocorp/example-google-image-search

The tool, by default, will download the project code in a directory with the name of the repository and the main branch.

  • Move into the directory that was created and run the robot:
cd example-google-image-search-main rcc run

Create a new robot

Create a new robot in a subdirectory called my-robot:

rcc robot initialize -d my-robot
