I'm trying to run the LDR-Importer addon directly from a script but I don't know where to start.
I tried using the python command that was underlined in the addon bpy.ops.import_scene.ldraw()
as seen in the image below.
I get the following error message:
[LDR Importer] (21:24:45.57) Standard-res primitives substitution selected

ret = op_call(self.idname_py(), None, kw)
RuntimeError: Error: Error: Invalid File Type

I then tried my luck by puting directly the file I'm trying to open as an argument bpy.ops.import_scene.ldraw("model.ldr")
and now I get the error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<blender_console>", line 1, in <module>

Any idea on what I'm doing wrong and what I should be doing instead?
