python.node

Call python code from node.js.

Usage

var python = require('python.node');
var os = python.import('os');

var path = require('path');

assert(os.path.basename(os.getcwd()) == path.basename(process.cwd()));

Feature

def test():
	try:
		## do samething
	except Exception as e:
		raise e
	return 'done'

PYMODULE.test.async = true;
PYMODULE.test(function (result, error) {
	if (!error)
		console.log(result);
});

If you need to pass keyword args, make the last argument an object with a sub-object kwArgs containing them:

PYMODULE.test("positionalArg", "anotherPositionalArg", { kwArgs: { arg1: "foo", arg2: 42} } );
