Inline::Python

 use Inline::Python; my $py = Inline::Python.new(); $py.run('print("hello world")'); # Or say EVAL('1+3', :lang<Python>); use string:from<Python>; say string::capwords('foo bar'); # prints "Foo Bar" 

Module for executing Python code and accessing Python libraries from Raku (formerly known as Perl 6).

You will need a Python 3 built with the -fPIC option (position independent code). Most distributions build their Python that way. To do this with pyenv, use something like:

 PYTHON_CONFIGURE_OPTS="--enable-shared" pyenv install 3.7 pyenv global 3.7 pyenv rehash 

With a python in your path, then build:

 perl6 configure.pl6 make test make install 

Dockerfile examples from jupyter/scipy-notebook with ubuntu dependencies are in df-amd/ and df-arm/ (e.g. docker pull p6steve/rakudo:inline-amd64-2021.05) then just go zef install -v Inline::Python --exclude="python3"
