Pistonpy
Pistonpy is an API wrapper for the Piston code execution engine by Engineer Man.
Key Features
- Simple modern and efficient Pythonic API using the
requestslib. - Supports application integration and CLI usage.
Requirements
Python 3.8+
Installing
To install the library, run the following commands:
# Linux/MacOS
python3 -m pip install -U pistonpy
# Windows
py -3 -m pip install -U pistonpyUsage
from pistonpy import PistonApp
# Initialize the client.
piston = PistonApp()
my_code = "print('This code ran from app.py itself!')"
output = piston.run(language="python", version="3.10.0", code=my_code)
print(output)This gives the output:
{'language': 'python', 'version': '3.10.0', 'run': {'stdout': 'This code ran from app.py itself!\n', 'stderr': '', 'code': 0, 'signal': None, 'output': 'This code ran from app.py itself!\n'}}run_file = piston.run(language="python", files=['test.py']) # version is optional. files even if it maybe only one must be given as lists.
print(run_file)This gives the same output,
{'language': 'python', 'version': '3.10.0', 'run': {'stdout': 'The code ran from test.py\n', 'stderr': '', 'code': 0, 'signal': None, 'output': 'The code ran from test.py\n'}}# You cannot provide both code and files in a single PistonAPP().run() instance.
# For running multiple files (For now it ONLY supports multiple python files)
multiple_files = piston.run(language="python", version="3.10.0", files=['test.py', 'test_two.py'])
print(multiple_files)Sadly, the output for multiple files are provided all-together. This will be fixed in the upcoming updates. The above statement will output to:
{'language': 'python', 'version': '3.10.0', 'run': {'stdout': 'The code ran from test.py\nthis is test 2\n', 'stderr': '', 'code': 0, 'signal': None, 'output': 'The code ran from test.py\nthis is test 2\n'}}print(piston.languages) # Prints the available languages along with their version.
print(piston.aliases) # Prints the available languages along with their alias/aliases.
print(piston.raw) # Prints the raw data without any formatting done.License
