Python based scripting on Cadence SPB

Question

Hi, 
 newbie question, 
 
 This question might have been asked many times. 
 [1] I could not find any python script based possibility for DRC check automation scripting using python. Did my homework before asking. 
 [2] all I see is SKILL based scripting. 
 
 [q1] Please point me to any UserGuide or programming manual in python [if any]? 
 [q2] Is it possible via C++? 
 
 Thanks

Hi! 
 I apologize for the late response 
 Examples using a report from Allegro to export DRC to a file (.csv). 
 Don't launcher Allegro. 100% python script. 
 code Python 
 import subprocess 
 input_data = "/path/to/your/file.brd" output_csv = "/temp/folder/report_drc.csv" // create before run cmd = ["report", "-v", "drc", input_data, output_csv] 
 subprocess.run(cmd, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
