Setup

This prepares the environment for running the examples.

Description

Perform the following steps to set up the environment: - Launch Sherlock. - Store the Sherlock tutorial path.

import os
import sys

# Add the 'examples' directory to the Python path to allow importing files in that directory.
sys.path.append(os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(os.getcwd()))))

from examples.examples_globals import store_sherlock_tutorial_path

from ansys.sherlock.core import launcher

Launch Sherlock

Launch Sherlock on Windows in headless mode using Windows Named User Authentication for the gRPC transport mode. See the API reference for how to launch Sherlock on Linux or Windows using other options.

sherlock, ansys_install_path = launcher.launch_and_connect(
    port=9092,
    transport_mode="wnua",
    sherlock_command_args="-noGUI",
)

store_sherlock_tutorial_path(ansys_install_path)
