Running Deadline code from Visual Studio Code

Deadline
1

Hello,

I’m trying to code on visual studio code and run my code for Deadline. I’m not able to run my code from visual studio.

Here is a simple snippet of my code :
from Deadline.Scripting import *

def main( *args ):
selectedJobs = MonitorUtils.GetSelectedJobs()
print(selectedJobs)

Here is my error :

from Deadline.Scripting import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘Deadline’

My operating system is the following: macOS Catalina

That class is only available if you run it via Deadline command. https://docs.thinkboxsoftware.com/products/deadline/10.0/1_User%20Manual/manual/scripting-overview.html

The package that you can import and use directly in IDE is the stand-alone API
