geometry node in python

[newbee]

kind of a basic question..

how to create a geometry node in scene context in python

I know i can create a sphere inside a geometry node using

x=hou.node(“/obj/box”)

y=x.createNode(“box”,”mybox”)

 

but how do i create a geometry node?

createNode takes the name of the node type, so for a geometry node it takes 'geo'.  The name of node (compared to it's label) can be found by middle mouse clicking on a node instance, it's the name after the label,, in parenthesis.
