The document introduces wsadminlib.py, a Python library that simplifies configuring IBM WebSphere Application Server. It provides over 500 methods with intuitive names and parameters to replace complex Admin config commands. The library hides syntax, makes tasks faster and easier to automate, and serves as documentation through its method prologues. It has been used internally at IBM for over a decade and released publicly on developerWorks in 2010 as an unsupported sample script.
