[Scott, W Alan]

Does this mean the Python could be developed in an IDE?

Bob,

That's pretty cool! I'll take a closer look at it next week. This seems to be in similar vein to a WIP-branch I created a little while ago but never got around to finishing it. If you're interested, here's the commit:

https://gitlab.kitware.com/utkarsh.ayachit/paraview/commit/bfea05b0d2114f51a581f63c368cdce603932619

It relies on `vtkPythonAlgorithm` (https://blog.kitware.com/vtkpythonalgorithm-is-great/) to handle passing algorithm passes to a Python class.  The XML looks like

<SourceProxy class="extras.Sphere"
                 name="PythonAlgorithm"
                 si_class="vtkSIPythonSourceProxy">
</SourceProxy>

Where the "class" is the Python class name indeed with extra being the module to import.

Hi,
I developed a ParaView plugin that is similar to Programmable Filter/Source, except that the Python code is in a Python class in an external file.

The source code for a first (rough) version can be found on github at
https://github.com/bobpepin/vtkPythonClassAlgorithm

I would be thankful for feedback or suggestions (as well as contributions of course).

Best,
Bob
