Running SU2 in python
 
I'm a beginner to SU2 and just get started with its tutorials.

I've seen that there're some python files in SU2, I wounder if there's some python functions wrappers that could be called to run SU2 in python. like passing a CGNS mesh and some configuration options to a function like 'run_SU2' to automatically generate a relative .cfg file and run the code. Is there any way to do this?

SU2 has been wrapped in python and it is possible to call the most important C++ subroutines from Python. This implementation was done to be sure that the CFD software can communicate with other software using memory and not hard-drive. In other to do so you need to activate --enable-PY_WRAPPER in the compiling process.
