Load a pickled Python object from a file.

Examples

def setup():
    global mouse_x_positions, mouse_y_positions
    py5.size(250, 250)
    py5.stroke_weight(10)
    data = py5.load_pickle('mouse_positions.pkl')
    mouse_x_positions = data['mouse_x']
    mouse_y_positions = data['mouse_y']


def draw():
    i = py5.frame_count
    if i < len(mouse_x_positions) and i < len(mouse_y_positions):
        py5.point(mouse_x_positions[i], mouse_y_positions[i])

Description

Load a pickled Python object from a file. The path can be in the data directory, relative to the current working directory (sketch_path()), or an absolute path.

There are security risks associated with Python pickle files. A pickle file can contain malicious code, so never load a pickle file from an untrusted source.

Underlying Processing method: loadPickle
