Read this article when you want to get started with python scripts in SOBEK 3 or if you would like to share your user scripts via OpenEarth.
Introduction
With scripts in DeltaShell you can add customized features to SOBEK:
- Set, delete and modify time series data (e. g. boundary condition input)
- Modify model data during runtime
- Read and write input and output data
All scripts in DeltaShell are written in Python.
Different types of scripts
We distinguish two types of scripts:
- Official released scripts come with official SOBEK releases. For official scripts quality standards like backwards compatibility apply.
- User scripts don't have official status. SOBEK users share their scripts via OpenEarth.
Getting started
To get started, look at the following wiki pages
Use SOBEK scripts from OpenEarth
- Checkout the Open Earth SVN repository to a local folder
- Cange the scripting folder to this local folder
