Is the UI builder supposed to work with python

#1

Hello,
I am in charge of discovery if this platform is suitable for my enterprise. We would like to build simple programs based on python script.

I am try to use the ui builder to create an interface with a python model. I think I follow all the right think but I am not able to access variable content from the ui… then I do not know if I can access the method since I cannot see any output.

Hi Riccardo,

Can you please provide the URL address of your python model project so that we can further investigate?

Regards,

Hi Riccardo,

Epicenter’s UI Builder does not support Python models, but please provide us with your contact information (by emailing us at support@forio.com) so that we can arrange a meeting with you to review our Epicenter features and how we can assist you with your Epicenter projects.

Regards,

Since the post is from 2016 I assume that the builder now works with Python, right?

Hi Pranas–

The interface builder does not support python. We recommend Python developers use FlowJs.
https://forio.com/epicenter/docs/public/data_binding_flow_js/

This approach allows you to create an interface in HTML and then specify custom HTML attributes with variable names, allowing them to automatically appear in an HTML page. You can use HTML forms to enter data and buttons can call Python functions.

You do not need to call Epicenter.record() unless you are saving data to the Forio database, either for the purpose of comparing runs, or for instructor review of class results in the case of a game-style simulation.
