source_python

Read and evaluate a Python script

Description

Evaluate a Python script within the Python main module, then make all public (non-module) objects within the main Python module available within the specified R environment.

Usage

source_python(file, envir = parent.frame(), convert = TRUE)

Arguments

`file`	The Python script to be executed.
`envir`	The environment to assign Python objects into (for example, `parent.frame()` or `globalenv()`). Specify `NULL` to not assign Python objects.
`convert`	Boolean; should Python objects be automatically converted to their R equivalent? If set to `FALSE`, you can still manually convert Python objects to R via the `py_to_r()` function.

Details

To prevent assignment of objects into R, pass NULL for the envir parameter.
