Command line options not available #2

When attempting to run the following:

from pyenergyplus.api import EnergyPlusAPI
from pathlib import Path

home = Path.cwd()
fpath = Path(home.parent, 'resstd_CZ5A_IECC_2021', 'US+SF+CZ5A+gasfurnace+unheatedbsmt+IECC_2021.idf')

api = EnergyPlusAPI()
state = api.state_manager.new_state()
api.runtime.set_console_output_status(state, True)
api.runtime.run_energyplus(state, ["--convert-only", "-x", str(fpath)])

I'm getting an error that I need to run ExpandObjects on the .idf file, but ExpandObjects should be available through the -x parameter.

We're not building Fortran targets, including ExpandObjects, at the moment. The full functionality will have to come when EnergyPlus develop an official Python wheel. In the meantime, you can probably use this.
