Supported by:
A web server that executes python code by request. Just POST your python code against the Server and get the stdout of its execution.
Also, you can use this as a library to initialize the server when you feel to.
Useful to bridge different languages.
Be careful not to use this on production because all the python code will be executed.
## Library Usage
npm install python-runner-web
var PythonWeb = require("python-runner-web");
/// initialize the server
var server = new PythonWeb.Server({
/// listen to port
port: 8585,
/// the python binary to use
pythonBin: "python",
/// the python env variables
pythonEnv: {
PYTHONPATH: "..."
}
});
/// start the server
server.start();
