[Paraview-developers] Create programmable source via python shell

[Joshua Murphy]

I was just about to ask a very similar question, but I was wondering how to create a source in pvpython without using the programmable source.  I have a larger script that I would like to generate the source, but I am having trouble figuring out how to get my vtkStructuredGrid data into a source that can be visualized on a pipeline.  Any suggestions for this use case?

Thanks,
Josh

Sure is.

Here is a minimal example.

from paraview.simple import *
programmableSource1 = ProgrammableSource()
programmableSource1.Script = 'print "Hello World"'
programmableSource1.UpdatePipeline()

In general, try Tools->Start Trace, make a source or anything really, Tools->Stop Trace to see how to do things.

good luck
