Model.create_published_parameter(name, source_object=None, source_property='', user_script='', category='input', acp_type=None, description='', lower_limit=None, upper_limit=None, cyclic=False, float_list=[], string_list=[], unbound_value=None)​

Create a published parameter.

  • Parameters:
    • name: Name of the parameter.
    • source_object: Name of the object the parameter is linked to.
    • source_property: Property of the linked object the parameter controls.
    • user_script: Script to be executed for determining the parameter value. Only used when category==”expression_output”.
    • category: Controls the behavior of the parameter. Available options: input, unbound_input, output, and expression_output.
    • acp_type: Type of the parameter, as used within ACP.
    • description: String description of the parameter.
    • lower_limit: The lower limit for numeric values.
    • upper_limit: The upper limit for numeric values.
    • cyclic: Whether a float value is cyclic.
    • float_list: A list of possible values for a float.
    • string_list: A list of possible values. List of objects if the property type is object, else list of strings.
    • unbound_value: The value of the parameter, if category==”unbound_input”. In this case, the parameter is not linked to an existing object.
  • Returns: The created PublishedParameter.
