Model.create_published_parameter(name, source_object=None, source_property='', user_script='', category='input', acp_type=None, description='', lower_limit=None, upper_limit=None, cyclic=False, float_list=[], string_list=[], unbound_value=None)

Create a published parameter.

name: Name of the parameter.
source_object: Name of the object the parameter is linked to.
source_property: Property of the linked object the parameter controls.
user_script: Script to be executed for determining the parameter value. Only used when category==”expression_output”.
category: Controls the behavior of the parameter. Valid options: input, unbound_input, output, and expression_output.
acp_type: Type of the parameter, as used within ACP.
description: String description of the parameter.
lower_limit: The lower limit for numeric values.
upper_limit: The upper limit for numeric values.
cyclic: Whether a float value is cyclic.
float_list: A list of possible values for a float.
string_list: A list of possible values. List of objects if the property type is object, else list of strings.
unbound_value: The value of the parameter, if category==”unbound_input”. In this case, the parameter is not linked to an existing object.
