Call a variable from one script file into another in Extension Builder

ansys-satyajeet

Is there a way to call a variable from one script file in the Extension Builder in another script? For example, I want workdir to be available to me in other Extension Builder tabs/scripts.

Store the value in a shared module

Create a script (for example globals.py) in the active folder and define:

# globals.py

workdir = None

Then in another script(active file where variable is defined):

import globals

globals.workdir = ExtAPI.Extension.InstallDir

And elsewhere:

import globals

print(globals.workdir)
