Hello all!So I am really new to Python.I had to convert a Matlab Script into Python script in order to be able to add it as a script tool in Arcmap.I am having a hard time figuring out how to input a shapefile into my script. My whole script runs based on the shapefile so I have no way of checking if it works unless it reads the shapefile.Thanks in advance!!
import arcpy inputShp = r'C:\Path\to\some\shapefile.shp' outputShp = r'C:\Path\to\other\shapefile.shp' # do something with the shapefile arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(inputShp, outputShp)
import arcpy inputShp = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0) # do something with the shapefile
