New Native Python Interface

[b-scholz]

Tom has been working on a native Python interface:

Is the Python SWIG interface alive? I tried building with -DSOUFFLE_SWIG_PYTHON=ON but it seems to have no effect on the build. Esp., it does not generate a module that I can import SwigInterface as in e.g. tests/swig/python/movies/driver.py.

This is an abandoned prototype and hasn’t been completed. Please check the SWIG interface. You need to install all dependencies to make it work.

The SWIG interface should still be functional for Python.
