Is the executable really necessary?

+
+"""Converts a given gypi file to a python scope and writes the result to stdout.
+
+It is assumed that the file contains a toplevel dictionary, and this script
+will return that dictionary as a GN "scope" (see example below). This script
+does not know anything about GYP and it will not expand variables or execute
+conditions.
+
+It will strip conditions blocks.
+
+A variables block at the top level will be flattened so that the variables
+appear in the root dictionary. This way they can be returned to the GN code.
+
+Say your_file.gypi looked like this:
+  {
+     'sources': [ 'a.cc', 'b.cc' ],
+     'defines': [ 'ENABLE_DOOM_MELON' ],
+  }
+
+You would call it like this:
+  gypi_values = exec_script("//build/gypi_to_gn.py",
+                            [ rebase_path("your_file.gypi") ],
+                            "scope",
+                            [ "your_file.gypi" ])
+
+Notes:
+ - The rebase_path call converts the gypi file from being relative to the
+   current build file to being system absolute for calling the script, which
+   will have a different current directory than this file.
+
+ - The "scope" parameter tells GN to interpret the result as a series of GN
+   variable assignments.
+
+ - The last file argument to exec_script tells GN that the given file is a
+   dependency of the build so Ninja can automatically re-run GN if the file
+   changes.
+
+Read the values into a target like this:
+  component("mycomponent") {
+    sources = gypi_values.sources
+    defines = gypi_values.defines
+  }
+
+Sometimes your .gypi file will include paths relative to a different
+directory than the current .gn file. In this case, you can rebase them to
+be relative to the current directory.
+  sources = rebase_path(gypi_values.sources, ".",
+                        "//path/gypi/input/values/are/relative/to")
+
+This script will tolerate a 'variables' in the toplevel dictionary or not. If
+the toplevel dictionary just contains one item called 'variables', it will be
+collapsed away and the result will be the contents of that dictinoary. Some
+.gypi files are written with or without this, depending on how they expect to
+be embedded into a .gyp file.
+
+This script also has the ability to replace certain substrings in the input.
+Generally this is used to emulate GYP variable expansion. If you passed the
+argument "--replace=<(foo)=bar" then all instances of "<(foo)" in strings in
+the input will be replaced with "bar":
+
+  gypi_values = exec_script("//build/gypi_to_gn.py",
+                            [ rebase_path("your_file.gypi"),
+                              "--replace=<(foo)=bar"],
+                            "scope",
+                            [ "your_file.gypi" ])
