Run a dynamo script with Python

DesignScript
1

Hello,

I had just a quick question if people know it is possible to run a Dynamo file from a python script. So you won’t need to start up a dynamo player or dynamo self and will be able to run the dynamo file from out the python script.

So yes where could I find more information about this. I have looked around but couldn’t find any information about this topic.

Not sure about Python directly, but it is doable via the dark art of journal playback. The Dynamo for automation package does this, albeit you need to open Dynamo to use it.

This is a question for the python integration with Revit, so I would seek help via that product.
