Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming language. It incorporates modules, exceptions, dynamic typing, very high-level dynamic data types, and classes. Python combines remarkable power with very clear syntax.

Python scripts are a versatile way to extend Blender functionality. Most areas of Blender can be scripted, including animation, rendering, import and export, object creation and automating repetitive tasks.

To interact with Blender, scripts can make use of the tightly integrated API.

Trình Bổ Sung

Add-ons are scripts that enable Blender to gain extra functionality, they can be enabled from the Preferences.

Outside of the Blender executable, there are hundreds of add-ons written by many people:

  • Officially supported add-ons are bundled with Blender.

  • Other Testing add-ons are included in development builds of Blender but not official releases. Many of them work reliably and are very useful but are not yet ensured to be stable for release.

Tập Lệnh

Apart from add-ons, there are several other types of scripts that extend Blender's functionality:

Mô-Đun

Utility libraries for import into other scripts.

Sắp Đặt Sẵn

Settings for Blender's tools and key configurations.

Khởi Động

These files are imported when starting Blender. They define most of Blender's UI, as well as some additional core operators.

Tập Lệnh Tùy Chỉnh

In contrast to add-ons they are typically intended for one-time execution via the Text Editor.

Địa Điểm Tập Tin

All scripts are loaded from the scripts folder of the local, system and user paths.

You can setup an additional search path for scripts in Đường Dẫn Tập Tin Preferences ‣ File Paths.

Cài Đặt

Add-ons are conveniently installed through Blender in the Preferences. Click the Install... button and select the .py or .zip file.

To manually install scripts or add-ons, place them in the addons, modules, presets, or startup directory according to their type. See the description above.

You can also run scripts by loading them in the Text Editor.
