Transcrypton at runtime in the browser

[ficocelliguy]

Hi all,

I'm thinking about a project that would involve handling arbitrary python scripts and transcrypting them to js in the browser at runtime, and I came across this library.

I see that the core parts of it are designed to be run in python from the command line. However, would it be possible to make a JS version of the core transcryption library using CLI transcrypt, or is there some limitations that cannot be translated? Alternatively, would it be possible for me to make a slightly modified version of the core files that could be run in the browser using pyscript, to be able to transpile from python to js at runtime?

Right now the only way to run Transcrypt is via the command line. It is not an importable library. Here is an example where transpiling from the browser was made possible by offloading to the server. There is a brief explanation discussed on issue #828
