Using the CSD Python API with Mercury and Hermes

The Mercury and Hermes software from the CCDC contain interfaces to the CSD Python API that allow direct access to API scripts from within these programs. The python interfaces open the capability of using any feature of the API inside these GUIs.

The welcome.py script, included in both <CSD Portfolio installation>/ccdc-software/mercury/scripts and <CSD Portfolio installation>/ccdc-software/hermes/scripts file locations, provides an example of features present in the ApplicationInterface utility which aid interactions between the API and the software GUIs.

Please refer to the Mercury and Hermes user guides for full details on using these script interfaces.
