My program creates data for a python script to use and I though the best way
for it get access to this was with modules. Simply setting a variable in the
script would not work because of the complexity of the data. Using the clr
module will not get access to the existing data (I also do not want to grant
access to all the other libraries). So I am left with creating a module but
using a static class and assigning all the instances to the static classes
every time before I call the python script is not a great method but I'm
thinking this would be the best at this point. The other method I found was
using the IronPython.Runtime.PythonModule class and Creating an instance for
each of my modules and adding to using
PythonEngine.Runtime.Globals.SetVariable The procedure to do this doesn't
give the impression that what I'm doing was ever intended and I have hit
things that I cannot do using this method. So I'm looking for a good method
of creating modules that would have my data attached to them.
Thanks

I have a project where I am hosting IronPython and I was wondering what
is
the best way to create modules in C# for python to use. I have found two
ways to do it so far. One method is what is done in IronPython, where
static
classes and the PythonModule attribute are used but I don't want to use
static classes to access runtime data.
I'm not 100% sure what you mean here, but the static class is just a
container - and it can contain non-static classes (and functions, and
static variables, etc). If it needs to be a module, it's the way to
go, as far as I'm concerned. If things get too big, don't forget that
you can use partial classes to split things up.
However, depending on what your code does, you probably don't need to
make it a module - IronPython will work just fine with any .NET class
library. Just do a `clr.AddReference` and then import the classes.
