pyeviews

[amrsherif]

Hello,

I fixed my original problem, so I've adjusted my question accordingly.

I am trying to fetch series from an EViews database into python using pyeviews. It seems like I need to include the full path to the database. Is there a way that pyeviews can use my database registry, so as to avoid that?

It would help to see what you're currently doing to understand the details better.

But if you're trying to fetch data from an EViews database, I would actually call FETCH first (with the alias name) which will pull the data into a new untitled workfile, and then get the data from the workfile using GetWFAsPython, like this:

Code: Select all

import py2eviews as evp eviewsapp = evp.GetEViewsApp(instance='new', showwindow=True) #show the EViews window for debugging... eviewsapp.Run('fetch(d=dbalias) x') #fetches X into new untitled workfile x = evp.GetWFAsPython(app=eviewsapp, namefilter='X') print(x) eviewsapp.Hide() #hide the window

FYI, pyeviews was recently renamed to py2eviews, which is what I'm using here. All new updates will be made to py2eviews.

This works.

Thank you
