coexistence of python and bash: strange beahviour

[aborruso]

Hi,
using this code

---
title: "bash"
format: html
---

# hello

```{bash}
curl --version | head -n 1 | awk '{ print $2 }'
```

I have

If I add some python code

---
title: "bash"
format: html
---

# hello

```{bash}
curl --version | head -n 1 | awk '{ print $2 }'
```

```{python}
print("hello")
```

the python code is not executed but simply printed

If I change the order of code blocks, the python code works, and the bash code is simply printed.

If I force the engine in this way - engine: knitr - both blocks work properly.

Is it normal? In the engine binding page I read that in some way the jupyter engine is the one to make python and bash coexist, but if I use jupyter engine, I can't get them to coexist.

Do I must use knitr to do it? cc @jjallaire

Thank you

Bash and Python can coexist as you have them here only in Knitr.

If on the other hand you use Jupyter shell magics (https://jakevdp.github.io/PythonDataScienceHandbook/01.05-ipython-and-shell-commands.html) you can do something similar in Jupyter (but not if this is quite as general).

Here is another refinement of the docs: https://quarto.org/docs/computations/execution-options.html#shell-commands
