bytecode is a Python module to generate and modify bytecode.
- bytecode project homepage at GitHub (code, bugs)
- bytecode documentation
- Download latest bytecode release at the Python Cheeseshop (PyPI)
Install bytecode: python3 -m pip install bytecode. It requires Python 3.6
or newer. The latest release that supports Python 3.5 is 0.12.0. For Python 2.7
support, have a look at dead-bytecode instead.
Example executing print('Hello World!'):
from bytecode import Instr, Bytecode
bytecode = Bytecode([Instr("LOAD_NAME", 'print'),
Instr("LOAD_CONST", 'Hello World!'),
Instr("CALL_FUNCTION", 1),
Instr("POP_TOP"),
Instr("LOAD_CONST", None),
Instr("RETURN_VALUE")])
code = bytecode.to_code()
exec(code)
