Hmm. Something like this (untested):

```python
from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.common.model import ApplicationScope

scope = ApplicationScope.getGlobalScope()

if (ApplicationScope.isClient(scope)):
	...

if (ApplicationScope.isDesigner(scope)):
	...

if (ApplicationScope.isGateway(scope)):
	...

```
