python

`python` is a built-in global object for running Python code from Expr.

It is used directly by name. Do not call `python()`.

Evaluates a Python expression string and returns the converted result.

value = python.eval('2 + 3 * 5');
print(value);        // 17

Runs Python code synchronously and returns the Python script result.

result = python.run_code('result = 40 + 2');
print(result);       // 42

Runs Python code synchronously with parameters from a `map`.

result = python.run_code('result = a + b', map('a', 10, 'b', 20));
print(result);       // 30

Runs a Python file synchronously and returns the Python script result.

result = python.run_file('scripts/example.py');

Runs a Python file synchronously with parameters from a `map`.

result = python.run_file('scripts/example.py', map('a', 10, 'b', 20));

Creates a `python_task` object for asynchronous execution of Python code.

task = python.code('result = 7');
task.run();

Creates a `python_task` object for asynchronous Python code execution with parameters.

Creates a `python_task` object for asynchronous execution of a Python file.

Creates a `python_task` object for asynchronous Python file execution with parameters.

`python_task` is returned by `python.code(…)` and `python.file(…)`.

Properties:

Methods:

Example:

task = python.code('result = 123');
task.run();
while (!task.completed) {}
print(task.result);
