Struct pyo3_pack::PythonInterpreter

pub struct PythonInterpreter {
    pub major: usize,
    pub minor: usize,
    pub abiflags: String,
    pub target: Target,
    pub executable: PathBuf,
}

The location and version of an interpreter

Fields

major: usize

Python's major version

minor: usize

Python's minor version

abiflags: String

For linux and mac, this contains the value of the abiflags, e.g. "m" for python3.5m or "mu" for python2.7mu. On windows, the value is always "".

See PEP 261 and PEP 393 for details

target: Target

Currently just the value of Target::os(), i.e. "windows", "linux" or "macos"

executable: PathBuf

Path to the python interpreter, e.g. /usr/bin/python3.6

Just the name of the binary in PATH does also work, e.g. python3.5

Methods

impl PythonInterpreter

pub fn get_tag(&self) -> String

Returns the supported python environment in the PEP 425 format: {python tag}-{abi tag}-{platform tag}

Don't ask me why or how, this is just what setuptools uses so I'm also going to use

pub fn get_library_extension(&self) -> String

Generates the correct suffix for shared libraries

For python 2, it's just .so. For python 3, there is PEP 3149, but that is only valid for 3.2 - 3.4. Since only 3.5+ is supported, the templates are adapted from the (also incorrect) release notes of python 3.5: https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.5.html#build-and-c-api-changes

Examples for 64-bit on Python 3.5m: Linux: steinlaus.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so Windows: steinlaus.cp35-win_amd64.pyd Mac: steinlaus.cpython-35m-darwin.so

Examples for 64-bit on Python 2.7mu: Linux: steinlaus.so Windows: steinlaus.pyd Mac: steinlaus.so

pub fn check_executable(     executable: impl AsRef<Path>,     target: &Target ) -> Result<Option<PythonInterpreter>, Error>

Checks whether the given command is a python interpreter and returns a PythonInterpreter if that is the case

pub fn find_all(target: &Target) -> Result<Vec<PythonInterpreter>, Error>

Tries to find all installed python versions using the heuristic for the given platform

pub fn check_executables(     executables: &[String],     target: &Target ) -> Result<Vec<PythonInterpreter>, Error>

Checks that given list of executables are al valid python intepreters, determines the abiflags and versions of those interpreters and returns them as PythonInterpreter

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for PythonInterpreter

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Clone for PythonInterpreter

fn clone(&self) -> PythonInterpreter

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Eq for PythonInterpreter

impl PartialEq for PythonInterpreter

fn eq(&self, other: &PythonInterpreter) -> bool

This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &PythonInterpreter) -> bool

This method tests for !=.

impl Display for PythonInterpreter

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.
