Generate dynamic input with python script

GustavoCordero — Tue, 11 Nov 2014 19:39:12 GMT

I'm new to this topic as I can use sys.argv [] or GetParameterAsText?

for can I make dynamic input coordinates and the name of the output shapefile

I'm using 10.2.2 ArcGIS, I want to create a python script and have the following script:

arcpy.env.workspace = 'C:\Users\Modelo\Puntos.gdb' arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True sr = arcpy.SpatialReference('WGS 1984') arcpy.env.outputCoordinateSystem = sr latitude = 14.024982 longitude = -89.962368 p = arcpy.Point(longitude, latitude) pg = arcpy.PointGeometry(p) arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(pg, 'salida.shp')

A few thing here...

When making geometries, supply the spatial reference :

pg = arcpy.PointGeometry(p, sr)

Your output shouldn't be a shapefile (*.shp) if its going into a gdb.

You have to make your python code into a script tool.

You use the GetParameterAsText(#) for each of your inputs.

Then the script can be added to a toolbox as a script tool.

Each input needs to have its properties set, so the tools knows what sort of input is expected (workspace, feature class etc)
