I was trying to render a force to a Phantom Omni. this force is calculated through my application. By looking at the hd.py library i didn't find this functionality. can you give me a hint on how to do this. Also, is it possible for oneself add functionality to hd.py or are there any additional things that need to be done?

thank you in advance

The hd module supports force effects. I've updated the haptic examples on our download page to include example scripts showing how to use the force effects. Just download the file and there will be a new subfolder called 'EffectsDemo'.

The hd.dlm plugin is implemented in C, so you cannot modify the functionality through hd.py.
