py_get_item: Get an item from a Python object

Description

Retrieve an item from a Python object, similar to how x[name] might be used in Python code to access an item indexed by key on an object x. The object's __getitem__ method will be called.

Usage

py_get_item(x, key, silent = FALSE)

Arguments

x

A Python object.

key

The key used for item lookup.

silent

Boolean; when TRUE, attempts to access missing items will return NULL rather than throw an error.
