How do I run a stand-alone script?

In other ArcGIS products, a Python script is run from a command prompt as follows:

c:\python27\ArcGIS10.8\python.exe my_script.py

In ArcGIS Pro, you can run the same script using the following updated path:

c:\Progra~1\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\scripts\propy.bat my_script.py

Here, propy.bat acts as a replacement for calling python.exe.

 

In my case, I have added the directory of propy.bat to the environental variable. Then I can call propy.bat anywhere in my computer.

PS C:\Users\User\PycharmProjects\pythonProject> propy.bat main.py

For the above command, we should navigate to the directory of the python script, then we can run the script.
