I'm building a Python toolbox with a tool which calls specific functions from a custom module.
The main input parameter for this tool is a multivalue list of raster layers.
In the execute block of my tool, I use parameter[2].valueAsText to read in said parameter, as normal, and then feed it into a custom module function as follows:
In this case, I've tested it with one custom function (corresponding to 'functionname'):
The trouble is that the 'input' (multivalue read in as text) ends up being a semicolon-delimited string of file names, and the function in the custom module can't seem to convert it back to a list of raster layers for Cell Statistics to actually process. As a result I get this error:
Script failed because: ERROR 000732: Input Raster: Dataset Development;Vegetation;Hydrology;Elevation does not exist or is not supported at this location:
I've tried reading in 'input' with .values instead of .valueAsText, so it comes in as a list, but then I get the error that 'cannot concatenate 'str' and 'list' objects' in the getattr line.
Any ideas what I can do about this?
I know this overall structure may seem unnecessarily complicated; but it's a key part of the bigger project. I'm not attached to specifically using getattr here, but solutions which preserve the basic structure, namely calling functions from a custom module using a string of the function's name, would be ideal. Thanks a lot!
