node-python binding
python bridge for nodejs!
Hyper-beta, don't hesitate to try and report bugs!
Installation
npm install node-python
Usage
// python stuff
var python = require('node-python');
var os = python.import('os');
// nodejs stuff
var path = require('path');
assert(os.path.basename(os.getcwd()) == path.basename(process.cwd()))
You should now go have fun with that and make it brokes :)
Current status
What should work:
- Conversion between None and Undefined
- Conversion between Python's and Node's Boolean
- Conversion between Python's and Node's String
- Calling python functions from node
- Conversion from Python's Array to Node's Array
What may be broken:
- Losing precision from Python's 64 bits Integer to Node's Number
- If you're using node v0.6.x (please upgrade) you'll have to manually compile with node-gyp
What's to be done:
- Conversion from Node's Array to Python's Array
- Pass javascript object to python
- Call javascript function from python
What would be realy awesome:
- Proper object introspection
