从Python运行Stata Do文件 [英] Run Stata do file from Python

问题描述

我有一个Python脚本，用于清理大型面板数据集(2,000,000+ observations)并执行基本统计计算。

我发现其中一些任务更适合Stata，并编写了一个包含必要命令的do文件。因此，我想在我的Python代码中运行一个.do文件。如何从Python调用.do文件？

推荐答案

我认为@user229552指向了正确的方向。可以使用Python的subprocess模块。下面是一个适用于我的Linux操作系统的示例。

假设您有一个名为pydo.py的Python文件，其中包含以下内容：

import subprocess

## Do some processing in Python

## Set do-file information
dofile = "/home/roberto/Desktop/pyexample3.do"
cmd = ["stata", "do", dofile, "mpg", "weight", "foreign"]

## Run do-file
subprocess.call(cmd) 

和一个名为pyexample3.do的Stata DO文件，其中包含以下内容：

clear all
set more off

local y `1'
local x1 `2'
local x2 `3'

display `"first parameter: `y'"'
display `"second parameter: `x1'"'
display `"third parameter: `x2'"'

sysuse auto
regress `y' `x1' `x2'

exit, STATA clear

然后在终端窗口中执行pydo.py即可正常工作。

您还可以定义一个Python函数并使用该函数：

## Define a Python function to launch a do-file 
def dostata(dofile, *params):
    ## Launch a do-file, given the fullpath to the do-file
    ## and a list of parameters.
    import subprocess    
    cmd = ["stata", "do", dofile]
    for param in params:
        cmd.append(param)
    return subprocess.call(cmd) 

## Do some processing in Python

## Run a do-file
dostata("/home/roberto/Desktop/pyexample3.do", "mpg", "weight", "foreign")

来自终端的完整呼叫，结果：

roberto@roberto-mint ~/Desktop
$ python pydo.py
