Python API 22.1

Python modules

For each program there is a corresponding Python module that needs to be installed:

Each of the Python modules above uses gRPC to communicate with the executable of the program using the Oasys.gRPC module, but this one doesn't need to be installed (it's automatically installed when installing any of the other modules).


To install the Python modules: execute the following commands in a Windows comand prompt, or in a Linux terminal:

  • pip install Oasys.PRIMER
  • pip install Oasys.D3PLOT
  • pip install Oasys.THIS
  • pip install Oasys.REPORTER


To update the Python modules when new versions are released: execute the following commands:

  • pip install Oasys.PRIMER --upgrade
  • pip install Oasys.D3PLOT --upgrade
  • pip install Oasys.THIS --upgrade
  • pip install Oasys.REPORTER --upgrade
