Alias Python API

The Alias Python API (APA) is a Python module that provides functionality to interact with an Alias session.

The Alias Engine includes the module in its Git repository at <repo-root>/api/alias_api.

The Alias Engine uses the OpenAlias version of the module, since the Engine is interacting with a running Alias session (GUI mode).

The OpenModel version of the module is also included in the alias_api folder, which can imported into a standalone Python console and used to execute Alias functionality without an Alias session running.
