Best way to integrate Python and JavaScript?

Question

Is it possible to integrate Python and JavaScript? For example, imagine you wanted to be able to define classes in JavaScript and use them from Python (or vice versa). If

Answer 1

there are two projects that allow an "obvious" transition between python objects and javascript objects, with "obvious" translations from int or float to Number and str or unicode to String: PyV8 and, as one writer has already mentioned: python-spidermonkey.

there are actually two implementations of pyv8 - the original experiment was by sebastien louisel, and the second one (in active development) is by flier liu.

my interest in these projects has been to link them to pyjamas, a python-to-javascript compiler, to create a JIT python accelerator.

so there is plenty out there - it just depends what you want to do.
