That said, I agree, it would be nice to pass as much metadata as
possible. For example, we could use the to_datetime() method
automatically if the incoming dataset is time-series, although maybe
this is something that a Python-savvy user might want to do manually
in some cases.
I just pushed to git a small modification that uses markers and dates if
available. For example, the following snippet
<hansl>
loop foreach i ooballot bjg denmark np djclose
open $i.gdt
foreign language=python --send-data
print(gretldata.head())
end foreign
endloop
</hansl>
should produce sensible results.
