Tutorial: Running Python code using Batavia from the command line

Batavia includes a simple command-line script that you can use to run your Python code. To use this tool you need to have followed the instructions from Tutorial: Setting up your Environment.

You can now run Python code from a code from the command line as follows:

npm run python /path/to/python_file.py

This runs the run_in_batavia.js script which in turn runs the Python code. This command will only work if you call it within the Batavia project directory and provide it the absolute path to the Python file to run.

You can alternatively directly run the run_in_batavia.js in Node. If you are not in the Batavia project directory you can still use this script as follows:

node /path/to/batavia/run_in_batavia.js /path/to/python_file.py
