I am new to Python and IBM Websphere Application Server. I run a status.bat file which calls status.py file through wsadmin(provided username, password and status.py path passed as parameters to wsadmin). IBM Websphere Application Server is installed in the machine.What i want to know is a Python Interpreter needed to run a python script, it was not installed in the system. Since the script is running through a WAS server-wsadmin, it had a capability to run a PY script even without having a PY Interpreter in that machine?? by its own compiling tool??
If it is must to have PYTHON.exe installed, do i need to tell wsadmin or anywhere that it is a PY script??
NOTE: The script and .bat was already existed in the machine and im supossed to work on it. I dont have any idea of the purpose of using wsadmin to run the script instead of by directly calling script by [python status.py] in .bat
Summary :- WS server had an any internal PY Interperter??
Thanks in Advance Friends....
WebSphere Application Server comes with Jython – Python implementation for JVM. It is usually located under <WAS_HOME>/optionalLibraries/jython.
To run a script you can use wsadmin:
./wsadmin.sh -lang jython -f your_script.py
The purpose of using wsadmin is that it provides facilities for server administration. If you don't need those then you can probably utilize optionalLibraries/jython/jython.jar directly although I never did this myself.
