@fdw will correct me if I’m wrong, but there is not an out of the box feature supported in PyFR. However, if you wanted to do this there are two options available to you:

  1. Within the soln-plugin-writer plugin, there is a post-action option which can be used to run command line scripts. So you could write a python script to run paraview, from that you could also call pyfr export ...
  2. You could write a plugin that calls out to Alpine: https://alpine.dsscale.org/. This is something that we’ve thought about for a while, but haven’t yet had the bandwidth to do.

Just an update here, in situ visualisation is now supported via ascent and conduit. See the ascent plugin.
