Batteries included!

The newest versions of the RevitPythonShell include a copy of the python standard library. This copy is taken from IronPython. This means you don’t need to add a search path to a local python distribution when importing standard python modules.

Since the library is included in a zip file embedded in the RpsRuntime.dll, it is also automatically deployed with when creating RpsAddIns.

The versions supporting this feature are:

  • (r223) Installer for Autodesk Revit 2015 (experimental)
  • Installer for Autodesk Vasari (Beta 3)
  • List item
