Post by voffi on Creating Symbol Config File from Python ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello! One can create a symbol config entry in CODESYS by using create_symbol_config in a python script. Is there a way to create the xml symbol config file (!) from within a python script without going online? Thank you!

Hello I am looking for the same thing, so i don't have an answer, but in your case you could possibly use the --noUI flag when running codesys, if you don't care about showing what's happening.

Hi, I clone a git repository with VersionUpdateFlags.SilentMode, works fine But now I want to checkout a specific commit (with branch_copy command). When using the branch_copy command there is no VersionUpdateFlags and I get this annoying "Project Environment" prompt, blocking further execution of my script without user input. I already tried something like system.prompt_answers[???] = PromptResult.Cancel but I don´t know the string I need here.. The goal is to have a script that clones a repository and compiles every tag + create compiled libraries.

Post by micik on Start Codesys project and then execute python script from command line ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, by searching the forum, I have found an example of batch script that can be used to start codesys projct by temporarily setting env variables. However, I'm not sure how to modify this to start Codesys 3.5.20 and whether or not I need to specify "profile" with Codesys version at all. @echo off SET PROJECT=D:\TestScripts\Data\OnlineTest.project SET VARIABLES=POU.testint,POU.testoutput start /wait CoDeSys.exe --profile="CoDeSys V3.4 SP3" --noUI --runscript="D:\TestScripts\Forum_Environment.py" I have tried the following just to open the test project: SET PROJECT=C:\TEST\Example.project start CODESYS.exe --profile="CODESYS V3.5 SP20 Patch 2" But I'm not sure how to specify this project to be open after py script is executed. The py script should first add required library to the project and then project should be open.

Post by trprsmn on "Scan Network" doesn't find CR1140 device (ifm) ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I'm watching an ifm tutorial on how to setup an industrial controller in CODESYS. I'm using an 'ecomatDisplay43inch_64bit) controller. CODESYS Gateway and PLC are both runngin (systray). However if I click "Scan Network" I can't find my controller. The only thing it finds is a "desktop" it seems (I'm using a Windows 10 on a Mac Book using VMWare, so maybe it has something to do with that?). How can I fix this? Thanks in advance!

Hi, sorry I can´t help you with your issue, but I hope you can give me a hint on getting GUID for other objects than POUs. Your code states "Guid("6f9dac99-8de1-4efc-8465-68ac443b7d08")". We can I find the GUID / ObjectIds`? I wasn´t able to get details about the GUID of DataTypes (STRUCT/ENUM,..)m, Functions (FUN), GLOBALS and TYPES. I want to create markdown of all available project elements. Thanks for your help

Post by benediktenger on Access project information of references library by script ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I need to accesss to project information of a referenced library in the project. At least I need the "Released" flag from these information to check that no project gets shipped with unreleased libraries. Unfortunally, I do not get this information by script. I archieved to get the library reference object and the managed library object but both won't give me this flag but only basic information like company, name, version, etc. Here is my code: # get the library refernces proj = projects.primary objects = proj.get_children(recursive=True) for object in objects: if object.is_libman: for libref in iter(object): if libref.is_placeholder and isinstance(libref.effective_resolution,str): print(libref) print(libref.name) # get the managed libraries libs = librarymanager.get_all_libraries() for lib in libs: print(lib.displayname) print(lib.version) Does somebody know how do get these information?

thank you very much! I found the generate_code methode, but struggled with the primary and active_application. With this expample I will be able to play around. If the code generation takes a minute or more I often switch to other programs and don't notify the process is finished. So now I'll get an alert and will switch back immediately. My next little project will be, to beep different if there are errors and a seperate script to do the download incl. the user management data base without stopping at the dialogs asking for onlinechange/complete download and overwriting an existing database and as goody, play a beep/sound again.

Post by kuegerls on SysProcessExecuteCommand2 and CANopen Device ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, CODESYS Control is running on my RevPi, and my system communicates over a CANbus with a master using the ConnectCan module (Slave - CANopen Device). The communication works perfectly fine so far. However, as soon as I call a Python script with "SysProcessExecuteCommand2" that creates a CSV file and executes without errors, the master does not adopt any changes to the Transmission Process Data Objects (TPDOs). I don't quite understand what one has to do with the other, and perhaps someone can help me with this. Here is my script call: SysProcess.SysProcessExecuteCommand2(pszCommand:='python /home/pi/test.py', pszStdOut:=sCMDOutput, udiStdOutLen:= SIZEOF(sCMDOutput), pResult := ADR(eResult)); Thank you in advance! Best regards, Stefan
