kdb+ and Python

Community Support
1

today we announced that we have acquired the rights to kdb+ for Python, or PyQ, from Enlightenment Research, it simplifies the running of a Python interpreter embedded in a kdb+ server. 

We have also announced the release of a beta version of embedPy which can load Python into kdb+, so Python variables and objects become q variables, and either language can act upon them. 

Together they simplify working with Python from q, and q from Python.

See https://kx.com/blog/kdb-python-embedpy-pyq/ for more details

Hello Simon, 
Any chance that embedPy might be available for the 32-bit KDB+ version? I see on the Github page that one requires KDB+ 64-bit. 

Thanks, 

Kumar

sorry, no plans for a version that works with 32bit kdb+ at the moment

I was able to build embedPy on macOS for 32bit kdb+.  Note that for this to work you will need a 32bit (or universal) build of Python.
