How can i call syntaxnet from python file?

Question

We have successfully installed syntaxnet and we are able to get the parsed output by calling the command echo 'open Book, which I have written with laboratory writer, with libreoffice writer.' | syntaxnet/demo.sh.

Ideally what we want is calling syntaxnet from python file (more specifically from flask) and expose syntaxnet service as api for internal team.

Yes, You can call syntaxnet from python. You can use subprocess module or simply os.system command.

os.system('syntaxnet/demo.sh')

or

subprocess.call('syntaxnet/demo.sh')

Both works for me. Make sure to give the full path of demo.sh file.
