Want to add the flow direction (spatial analyst tool) functionality in my custom tool

Question

I am building a tool to do some post-processing on two raster files that I will be providing as inputs. One of the internal calculations I want in my code is applying the flow direction (spatial analyst tool) analysis on one of the rasters. I want the flow direction type as DINF.

However I cannot figure out how to incorporate the functionality of a built-in tool in this custom-made tool. Is it even possible?

you would have to have arcpy on the machine and access to a spatial analyst license
