Convert Dynamo Script to Python Script (Standalone)

Wondering if there is a way to convert Dynamo scripts to python scripts.

I know there is a scripting tool similar to rhino monkey which allows users to create buttons and run python scripts within the revit interface. The tool has it’s own ribbon.

Python executes scripts much much faster, and dynamo is a RAM-leak.

Anyone know if there is some sort of translation tool?

There is no direct way to translate Dynamo to Python. You could use the Node to Code to convert your Dynamo nodes into DesignScript, which would make it easier to replicate using python, but you can’t convert directly from one to the other.

That’s what I suspected…

Thanks for the response. :slight_smile:

Is there any code to view your script in that you could then use Chat GBT to convert to C sharp for an add in?

It’s highly unlikely it would be that simple. You’d still need to understand how to work with C# to tidy up errors with general syntax and Revit API, package any resources in and actually compile it into a working solution.
