[Rust](http://www.rust-lang.org/) bindings for [Python](https://www.python.org/). This includes running and interacting with python code from a rust binaries as well as writing native python modules.

## Usage
Pyo3 supports python 2.7 as well as python 3.5 and up. The minimum required rust version is 1.29.0-nightly 2018-07-16.
Pyo3 supports python 2.7 as well as python 3.5 and up. The minimum required rust version is 1.30.0-nightly 2018-08-18.
You can either write a native python module in rust or use python from a rust binary.
### Using rust from python
On some OSs, you need some additional packages.
E.g. if you are on Ubuntu18.04, please run
```bash
sudo apt install python3-dev python-dev
```

On windows and linux, you can build normally with `cargo build --release`. On Mac Os, you need to set additional linker arguments. One option is to compile with `cargo rustc --release -- -C link-arg=-undefined -C link-arg=dynamic_lookup`, the other is to create a `.cargo/config` with the following content:

Also on macOS, you will need to rename the output from \*.dylib to \*.so. On Windows, you will need to rename the output from \*.dll to \*.pyd.
For developing, you can copy and rename the shared library from the target folder: On macOS, rename `libstring_sum.dylib` to `string_sum.so`, on windows `libstring_sum.dll` to `string_sum.pyd` and on linux `libstring_sum.so` to `string_sum.so`. Then open a python shell in the same folder and you'll be able to `import string_sum`.
[`setuptools-rust`](https://github.com/PyO3/setuptools-rust) can be used to generate a python package and includes the commands above by default. See [examples/word-count](examples/https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3/tree/master/examples/word-count) and the associated setup.py.
To build, test and publish your crate as python module, you can use [pyo3-pack](https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3-pack) or [setuptools-rust](https://github.com/PyO3/setuptools-rust). You can find an example for setuptools-rust in [examples/word-count](examples/word-count), while pyo3-pack should work on your crate without any configuration.
