Hi Shing,
You can actually make HTTP calls to the Sage notebook using Robert
Bradshaw's simple API. For example, the following is a (condensed)
Python script which authenticates with a running Sage notebook.
import urllib, re
def get_url(url):
h = urllib.urlopen(url); data = h.read(); h.close(); return data
session = None
def sage(expression, host="localhost", passwd = "passwd", port = 8000):
global session
if session is None:
login_page =
get_url('http://%s:%s/simple/login?username=admin&password=%s' %
(host, port, passwd))
session = re.match(r'.*"session": "([^"]*)"', login_page,
re.DOTALL).groups()[0] #extract the sessionid from the result
expression = urllib.quote(expression)
res = get_url('http://%s:%s/simple/compute?session=%s&code=%s' %
(host, port, session, expression))
return res
def test_equality(expr1, expr2):
res = sage("bool( %s == %s)"%(expr1, expr2))
dictionary, res = res.split("___S_A_G_E___")
res = res.strip()
return True if res == "True" else False
The function 'sage' takes in a Sage expression and returns the result
as a string. You can look at sage/server/simple/twist.py for more
examples of how this is used. Doing the same thing from Java wouldn't
be difficult.
