Minimal example#

You can initiate AEDT in non-graphical mode from Python using this code:

# Launch AEDT 2023 R2 in non-graphical mode
import pyaedt
with pyaedt.Desktop(specified_version="2023.2", non_graphical=True, new_desktop_session=True, close_on_exit=True,
             student_version=False):
    circuit = pyaedt.Circuit()
    ...
    # Any error here will be caught by Desktop.
    ...
# Desktop is automatically closed here.

The preceding code launches AEDT and initializes a new Circuit design.

Electronics Desktop launched

This code creates a project and saves it with PyAEDT:

# Launch the latest installed version of AEDT in graphical mode.
import pyaedt
cir =  pyaedt.Circuit(non_graphical=False)
cir.save_project(my_path)
...
cir.release_desktop(save_project=True, close_desktop=True)
# Desktop is released here.
