ansys.meshing.prime.launch_prime(prime_root=None, ip='127.0.0.1', port=50055, timeout=20.0, n_procs=None, version=None, **kwargs)#

Launch an instance of Ansys Prime Server and get a client for it.

Parameters:
prime_root: Optional[str]

Root directory for Ansys Prime Server.

ip: str

IP address to start the server at. The default is 127.0.0.1.

port: int

Port at which the server is started. The default is 50055.

timeout: float

Maximum time in seconds to wait for the client to connect to the server. The default is 20.0.

n_procs: Optional[int]

When running in distributed mode, the number of distributed processes to spawn. The default is None, in which case the server is launched as the only process (normal mode). The process marked as Node 0 hosts the gRPC server.

Returns:
