Pipe stuff to Stata, get results back.
Project description
Statpipe is a simple command line utility allowing Stata commands to be piped into Stata, and the output returned. 2 For example:
echo "di 2+2" | statpipe . di 2^2 4
You can also use in interactive mode (although state isn’t saved across calculations):
statpipe > Enter a stata expression (e.g. di 2*2): di 2*2 > Cached output re-used > . di 2*2 > 4
Or from a Python script you can import and use like so:
from statpipe import run_stata_code
print run_stata_code("di 2+2").split("\n")
> ['. di 2+2', '4', '']
To install, download and:
cd statpipe python setup.py install #you might need to sudo if installing in system python
or
pip install statpipe
Dependencies
Obviously depends on Stata.
Tested with version 12 through 14 on OS X. Should work for Linux/Unix too.
