Hi, I need to run a python script outside FME and I wonder if it is possible to use the interpreter provided with FME instead of installing another version of the same interpreter on my system.

 

If it is possible, are there any examples of such usage ?

Hi,

 

 

The Python interpreter embedded in FME seems not to be an independent executable program, so I don't think there is an easy way to use it outside of FME.

 

But in reverse, there is a way to import the "fmeobjects" module into a script which should be interpreted with an outside Python interpreter, if necessary.
