Python

tip

If you are not already a member we suggest that you join the Arup Python Yammer. With over 1,000 members this is the best forum within Arup for asking general python questions.

If you have ArupCompute-specific problems you can reach out on the ArupCompute python Teams channel.

This guide has been written using Visual Studio Code as the development environment, utilising venv for environments and targeting Python 3.8.

If those words mean nothing to you, or you just want to be able to follow along with the guide exactly, then start with the setting up a python development environment guide.

Developing for ArupCompute can be done with any python toolkit though, so if you are already happy with your setup head straight to writing your first ArupCompute python function.

If you would rather watch how to upload a library this recording from 9th June 2022 shows the process.

Over time the details may change, so refer to this documentation site for the latest specifics.
