  1. install using a shell command: shell pip install pytwoway
  2. pass data from Stata to Python
  3. run estimator
  4. extract results back to stata and show

Once I'm on winter break I'm going to try out pyoxidizer to get a standalone executable.

Once that's working I'll update the Stata interface so you'll be able to run the Stata command with just the executable even if you don't have Python.

Thanks Adam, I might try to put something simple together, just because some people are asking. Hope all is good!

I created a page on the wiki and a stata branch. See details here:

Pytwoway with Stata on Apple silicon (M1, M2, etc)

Since using pandas and numpy, I think it would be better to use PyInstaller. See https://pyoxidizer.readthedocs.io/en/v0.9.0/packaging_additional_files.html#installing-unclassified-files-on-the-filesystem

Thank you for the recommendation @shoham-b.

I will take a look at the link you posted once I get to creating the executable.

The way I have moved the library to off line servers if by using conda-pack. We could provide a simple tutorial for it. If you can set it up locally using conda, you can then relatively easily pack it into one file that you can then move to the server.

In all cases, that file (or any executable) will end up pretty large, at least several 100M.
