setting flags in python src blocks?

setting flags in python src blocks?

Is it possible to set command line flags for an executable in src blocks? I
was thinking of something like this

#+BEGIN_SRC python :flags --some_flag=True :tangle test.py
import app

print(app.FLAGS.some_flag) # -> True
#+END_SRC

which would be equivalent to running:

> python --some_flag=True test.py

Thanks,

John

ob-python doesn't suport :flags nor :cmdline, but you can set interpreter
with :python. So, you can do

#+begin_src python :python "python --some_flag=True"

to pass parameter to the interpreter.

Thanks. That does work for flags the interpreter knows, but python doesn't
understand --some_flag (I mean literally that flag!).

It turns out I meant:

python test.py --some_flag=True.

It looks like that is not currently possible.
