Python Tool Family

Important

This Python SDK uses outdated technology that limits your extension opportunities. We've built a new Platform SDK using Python and the latest open-source technology to deliver a vastly improved development experience. Go to Platform SDK to get started!

YXI installers can be grouped together to share dependencies and a single python virtual environment. This allows for a common site-packages path that is shared between all Python SDK tools that are of the same ToolFamily.

ToolFamily Attribute

A string field on the EngineSettings Element that indicates an association between multiple tools. Tools with the same value for the ToolFamily attribute will make use of the same python virtual environment and share dependencies. This allows for a common site-packages path that is shared between all Python SDK tools that are of the same ToolFamily.
