Accessing SAMSON functionality via Python

The Python Scripting extension gives you Python bindings for the SAMSON API together with an integrated Python console.

Use this page if you want to:

• write Python scripts that control SAMSON
• build small tools or apps directly in Python
• expose parts of your own extensions through Python bindings
