No output of py"""print('some text')""" in Jupyter Notebooks

[tzxiong]

Hi,

I found that the code mentioned in the title:

using PyCall
py"""
print('some text')
"""

cannot produce the output (nothing has been produced) when running a Julia console or an interactive notebook in the Jupyter Lab.

Any way to solve this?

Thanks, Tianzhu =--==-=

Basically we have to intercept Python's stdout and redirect it to Julia's stdout in order for this to be captured in the notebook. Should be possible.

Adding a "+1" to this issue ... would be helpful if this worked. The Python QuTip package prints out useful stuff that I can't see with PyCall.jl in a Jupyter notebook. Thanks!

Looks like it is sufficient to do:

pyimport("sys")."stdout" = PyTextIO(stdout)
pyimport("sys")."stderr" = PyTextIO(stderr)

I didn't realize it would be that simple! Thanks very much!!
