ugly, hacky python-interface to jags using rjags via rpy2

pyjags

WARNING: This is not the same project as @tmiasko's pyjags which uses JAGS directly instead of going through R. I guess this repo is superseded by @tmiasko's pyjags (though I haven't tested it yet).

Ugly ass hell wrapper to access JAGS from python. It uses rpy to access JAGS via R (did I mention how ugly this is?).

WARNING: No protection whatsoever! It happily passes variables back and forth between R and python without checking for overwriting them etc.

• Don't attempt to use multiple models in the same program (simultaneously, one after the other is ok)
• the code will mess with rpy2's R instance, i.e., if you run R-magics, the environment is changed by this code

Requirements:

• JAGS
• R
• rjags (R package)
• rpy2 (python package)
• ipython (python package)

install

(not really recommended)

pip install git+git://github.com/ihrke/pyjags@master
