Hi All
First post here, so sorry if I haven’t followed best practice!
BACKGROUND
We are in the process of rolling out a PyRevit toolbar for our company (pyRevit is a fantastic tool!)
We have a bunch of Dynamo scripts/graphs (don’t know how particular people get here with names) that we write, which are small one-offs or project-specific for the team to run on models, etc.
The scripts have UI’s and I want to avoid the teams having to find them, and even more so, don’t want them to have open Dynamo to run and run into issues with bindings and tinkering, etc.
I have been exploring and have a few ideas on how we could give them consistent access to what is available for their specific projects without needing to go and find them.
I have something actually working and all the bits in place to make it easier for them to access.
I just can’t figure out a way to get the script to actually kick off like you do on the toolbar.
It’s not really feasible to make a bunch of project-specific toolbars in PyRevit.
The OOTB Dynamo Player is also pretty terrible, and team members have to repath as they change projects etc.
Tools like Orkestra and Nonica are available obviously, there, but this is another add-in IT would need to test / manage / package for sccm / install etc and an additional tab in Revit.
QUESTIONS
Is it possible to run/execute Dynamo scripts from within Python when PyRevit is installed?
I haven’t really found any specific information on how to do it or what is possible.
I found an old thread where it got talked about, but the thread died off (sorry if I should have commented there)
How to execute a Dynamo graph inside a python script? - Runtime - pyRevit Forums
I haven’t been able to find too much in the Notion docs as I have been trawling through them.
Maybe there is some content in there that I am missing?
It feels like something I might be missing since Dynamo appears to be able run headless in the background with PyRevit kicking .dyn off the toolbar.
Hopefully someone can help me out / Thank you!
