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

|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
PyO3 supports Python 3.6 and up. The minimum required Rust version is 1.39.0.
|
|
|
|
Building with PyPy is also possible (via cpyext) for Python 3.6, targeted PyPy version is 7.3+.
|
|
Please refer to the [pypy section in the guide](https://pyo3.rs/master/pypy.html).
|
|
|
|
You can either write a native Python module in Rust, or use Python from a Rust binary.
|
|
|
|
However, on some OSs, you need some additional packages. E.g. if you are on *Ubuntu 18.04*, please run
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt install python3-dev python-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Using Rust from Python
|
|
|
|
PyO3 can be used to generate a native Python module.
|
|
|
|
**`Cargo.toml`**
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[package]
|
|
name = "string-sum"
|
|
version = "0.1.0"
|
|
edition = "2018"
|
|
|
|
[lib]
|
|
name = "string_sum"
|
|
crate-type = ["cdylib"]
|
|
|
|
[dependencies.pyo3]
|
|
version = "0.12.3"
|
|
features = ["extension-module"]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**`src/lib.rs`**
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
use pyo3::prelude::*;
|
|
use pyo3::wrap_pyfunction;
|
|
|
|
/// Formats the sum of two numbers as string.
|
|
#[pyfunction]
|
|
fn sum_as_string(a: usize, b: usize) -> PyResult<String> {
|
|
Ok((a + b).to_string())
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
/// A Python module implemented in Rust.
|
|
#[pymodule]
|
|
fn string_sum(py: Python, m: &PyModule) -> PyResult<()> {
|
|
m.add_function(wrap_pyfunction!(sum_as_string, m)?)?;
|
|
|
|
Ok(())
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On Windows and Linux, you can build normally with `cargo build --release`. On macOS, 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:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[target.x86_64-apple-darwin]
|
|
rustflags = [
|
|
"-C", "link-arg=-undefined",
|
|
"-C", "link-arg=dynamic_lookup",
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
While developing, you can symlink (or 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`.
|
|
|
|
Adding the `cdylib` arguments in the `Cargo.toml` files changes the way your crate is compiled.
|
|
Other Rust projects using your crate will have to link against the `.so` or `.pyd` file rather than include your library directly as normal.
|
|
In order to make available your crate in the usual way for Rust user, you you might want to consider using both `crate-type = ["cdylib", "rlib"]` so that Rust users can use the `rlib` (the default lib crate type).
|
|
Another possibility is to create a new crate to perform the binding.
|
|
|
|
To build, test and publish your crate as a Python module, you can use [maturin](https://github.com/PyO3/maturin) or [setuptools-rust](https://github.com/PyO3/setuptools-rust). You can find an example for setuptools-rust in [examples/word-count](https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3/tree/master/examples/word-count), while maturin should work on your crate without any configuration.
|
|
|
|
## Using Python from Rust
|
|
|
|
If you want your Rust application to create a Python interpreter internally and
|
|
use it to run Python code, add `pyo3` to your `Cargo.toml` like this:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
pyo3 = "0.12.3"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Example program displaying the value of `sys.version` and the current user name:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
use pyo3::prelude::*;
|
|
use pyo3::types::IntoPyDict;
|
|
|
|
fn main() -> Result<(), ()> {
|
|
Python::with_gil(|py| {
|
|
main_(py).map_err(|e| {
|
|
// We can't display Python exceptions via std::fmt::Display,
|
|
// so print the error here manually.
|
|
e.print_and_set_sys_last_vars(py);
|
|
})
|
|
})
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
fn main_(py: Python) -> PyResult<()> {
|
|
let sys = py.import("sys")?;
|
|
let version: String = sys.get("version")?.extract()?;
|
|
let locals = [("os", py.import("os")?)].into_py_dict(py);
|
|
let code = "os.getenv('USER') or os.getenv('USERNAME') or 'Unknown'";
|
|
let user: String = py.eval(code, None, Some(&locals))?.extract()?;
|
|
println!("Hello {}, I'm Python {}", user, version);
|
|
Ok(())
|
|
}
|
|
```
