[GRASS-dev] running grass from python

GRASS GRASS developer

Hello All,

i'm intersted to know if it is possible to use the grass functionalities directly from python
without the needs to run a grass session from bash.

i think the first thisk i have to do is to set my PYTHONPATH to where i have grass-python libs
then i have to set the grass environment vars (gisenv?)

have you any hints on how to do it (if possible) ?

thanks a lot,

Massimo.

The most important environment variables are GISBASE, GISRC, PATH and
LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or equivalent).
