Hey,

this is one way of doing it. Keep in mind that subprocess.call will block until the script has finished, so if you execute this from the main thread in the runtime, then the entire runtime will wait for it to finish. Note that this will only return the exit code from the python3 application. It is common to be interested in more than this, e.g. standard out and such, so you may want to use subprocess.Popen() instead.

Another way of doing it would be to have the python3 application running as a service and communicate with it using e.g. sockets or REST. For long-running jobs with communication going in both directions, sockets would probably be the preferred way.

On a side note, we are planning on moving over to python3, but there is as yet no set timeframe for it. I cannot promise it will be this year.

Cheers,

// Ola
