Message Extractor Example in Python
Installation
You have to install the Perl mdoule Inline::Python.
If your package manager does not have a package for Inline::Python you
have the following options:
CPAN Module
Try first:
sudo cpan install Inline::Python
If the command cpan cannot be found, try instead:
perl -MCPAN -e 'install Inline::Python'
From Sources
When you build the module, you should try to not mix binaries from different sources. On the Mac, for example, you should use the Python interpreter from MacPorts (and not the one that ships with Mac OS X) if you use Perl from MacPorts.
In general, installing Perl Inline modules from source is often a challenging tasks because build systems from two programming languages have to be configured correctly.
From CPAN
Go to http://search.cpan.org/~nine/Inline-Python/ and click the link "Download".
Then follow the usual Perl installation plethora:
tar xzf Inline-Python-VERSION.tar.gz
cd Inline-Python
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
sudo make install
Note that dependencies are not automatically installed! Please read
the output of perl Makefile.PL carefully!
From Git
Alternatively, you can use the latest sources from Git:
git clone http://github.com/niner/inline-python-pm.git
cd Inline-Python
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
sudo make install
Note that dependencies are not automatically installed! Please read
the output of perlMakefile.PL carefully!
Usage
The README.md for all samples contains exhaustive documentation for the Python example.
The source code is also well-commented!
