pyDPF to do 2 simple tasks for LS prepost

Dennis Chen

Is there anyway I can carry out the following 2 tasks inside VS code without ever manually open LSPP

1) open LSPP (I can do this without using pyDPF or anything ansys related, with subprocess for example).
2) I need a way to run a command as if I am typing directly into the command window in LSPP such as (runpython path_to_py_file)

that's it, I just want to run automation without having to type a command inside LSPP.

@Dennis Chen There are two options here:

1. You use PyDPF for which LSPP will not come into the picture.
2. If you want to use capabilities of LSPP, then you can record script ( scl script) and then parameterize and then run it from a python script using subprocess.
