Hello Iwase, thank you for taking the time to reply. Yes, correct. I was hoping to be able to interact with the running my_app application ($ryu-manager my_app.py) from another Python script. E.g. be able to instantiate the class of the running app and make calls to functions residing there.
I will try out the method you described below. Thank you.
