Hi, I'm a noob in python and I'm trying hard to get it to work.
I want to run a command line from a python script that will launch a blender render like so :
import os
command = "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender\blender untitled 02.blend -b -a"
os.system(command)
or
import subprocess
subprocess.Popen("C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender\blender.exe untitled 02.blend -b -a")But it doesn't work. Help will be appreciated..
If pass in a string command need
shell=True.
Better and safer to pass in a list.
Can try:
import subprocess
subprocess.Popen([r'C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender\blender.exe', 'untitled', '02.blend', '-b', '-a'])
If you use blender some should also add it to
Windows Path.
Then can call just blender.
import subprocess
subprocess.Popen(['blender', 'untitled', '02.blend', '-b', '-a'])
Thank you for your answer, but how can I pass a variable with this?
I tried that and didn't work :
newCol = [0.22447,1, 0.22447,1]
subprocess.Popen([r'C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender\blender.exe', 'untitled02.blend', '-b', '-a', '--', newCol])
I guess
--newCol is one command?
All command should be one(string) element in the list.
[r'C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender\blender.exe', 'untitled02.blend', '-b', '-a', '--newCol']
i'd use subprocess.call ... but i do things in weird ways.
Here it is what I was working on.
