Run a simulation using Python

If you used Python to create or modify JSON files as shown in software-configuration-script, it may be convenient to invoke Eradication.exe to run a simulation from a Python script. One way of doing this is shown below using the subprocess_ package.

    import subprocess

    # specify paths
    binary_path = "binDirectory\Eradication.exe"
    input_path = "inputDirectory\Namawala\

    # commission job
    subprocess.call( [binary_path, "-C", "config.json", "--input", input_path] )

See software-simulation-cli for more information about the command options available for use with Eradication.exe.
