[][src]Struct pyo3::pycell::PyCell

#[repr(C)]pub struct PyCell<T: PyClass> { /* fields omitted */ }

PyCell is the container type for PyClass.

From Python side, PyCell<T> is the concrete layout of T: PyClass in the Python heap, which means we can convert *const PyClass<T> to *mut ffi::PyObject.

From Rust side, PyCell<T> is the mutable container of T. Since PyCell<T: PyClass> is always on the Python heap, we don't have the ownership of it. Thus, to mutate the data behind &PyCell<T> safely, we employ the Interior Mutability Pattern like std::cell::RefCell.

PyCell implements Deref<Target = PyAny>, so you can also call methods from PyAny when you have a PyCell<T>.

Examples

In most cases, PyCell is hidden behind #[pymethods]. However, you can construct &PyCell directly to test your pyclass in Rust code.

#[pyclass]
struct Book {
    #[pyo3(get)]
    name: &'static str,
    author: &'static str,
}
let gil = Python::acquire_gil();
let py = gil.python();
let book = Book {
    name: "The Man in the High Castle",
    author: "Philip Kindred Dick",
};
let book_cell = PyCell::new(py, book).unwrap();
// you can expose PyCell to Python snippets
pyo3::py_run!(py, book_cell, "assert book_cell.name[-6:] == 'Castle'");

You can use slf: &PyCell<Self> as an alternative self receiver of #[pymethod], though you rarely need it.

use std::collections::HashMap;
#[pyclass]
#[derive(Default)]
struct Counter {
    counter: HashMap<String, usize>
}
#[pymethods]
impl Counter {
    // You can use &mut self here, but now we use &PyCell for demonstration
    fn increment(slf: &PyCell<Self>, name: String) -> PyResult<usize> {
        let mut slf_mut = slf.try_borrow_mut()?;
        // Now a mutable reference exists so we cannot get another one
        assert!(slf.try_borrow().is_err());
        assert!(slf.try_borrow_mut().is_err());
        let counter = slf_mut.counter.entry(name).or_insert(0);
        *counter += 1;
        Ok(*counter)
    }
}

Implementations

impl<T: PyClass> PyCell<T>[src]

pub fn new(
    py: Python<'_>,
    value: impl Into<PyClassInitializer<T>>
) -> PyResult<&Self> where
    T::BaseLayout: PyBorrowFlagLayout<T::BaseType>, 
[src]

Make a new PyCell on the Python heap and return the reference to it.

In cases where the value in the cell does not need to be accessed immediately after creation, consider Py::new as a more efficient alternative.

pub fn borrow(&self) -> PyRef<'_, T>[src]

Immutably borrows the value T. This borrow lasts untill the returned PyRef exists.

Panics

Panics if the value is currently mutably borrowed. For a non-panicking variant, use try_borrow.

pub fn borrow_mut(&self) -> PyRefMut<'_, T>[src]

Mutably borrows the value T. This borrow lasts untill the returned PyRefMut exists.

Panics

Panics if the value is currently mutably borrowed. For a non-panicking variant, use try_borrow_mut.

pub fn try_borrow(&self) -> Result<PyRef<'_, T>, PyBorrowError>[src]

Immutably borrows the value T, returning an error if the value is currently mutably borrowed. This borrow lasts untill the returned PyRef exists.

This is the non-panicking variant of borrow.

Examples

#[pyclass]
struct Class {}
let gil = Python::acquire_gil();
let py = gil.python();
let c = PyCell::new(py, Class {}).unwrap();
{
    let m = c.borrow_mut();
    assert!(c.try_borrow().is_err());
}

{
    let m = c.borrow();
    assert!(c.try_borrow().is_ok());
}

pub fn try_borrow_mut(&self) -> Result<PyRefMut<'_, T>, PyBorrowMutError>[src]

Mutably borrows the value T, returning an error if the value is currently borrowed. This borrow lasts untill the returned PyRefMut exists.

This is the non-panicking variant of borrow_mut.

Examples

#[pyclass]
struct Class {}
let gil = Python::acquire_gil();
let py = gil.python();
let c = PyCell::new(py, Class {}).unwrap();
{
    let m = c.borrow();
    assert!(c.try_borrow_mut().is_err());
}

assert!(c.try_borrow_mut().is_ok());

pub unsafe fn try_borrow_unguarded(&self) -> Result<&T, PyBorrowError>[src]

Immutably borrows the value T, returning an error if the value is currently mutably borrowed.

Safety

This method is unsafe because it does not return a PyRef, thus leaving the borrow flag untouched. Mutably borrowing the PyCell while the reference returned by this method is alive is undefined behaviour.

Examples

#[pyclass]
struct Class {}
let gil = Python::acquire_gil();
let py = gil.python();
let c = PyCell::new(py, Class {}).unwrap();

{
    let m = c.borrow_mut();
    assert!(unsafe { c.try_borrow_unguarded() }.is_err());
}

{
    let m = c.borrow();
    assert!(unsafe { c.try_borrow_unguarded() }.is_ok());
}

pub fn replace(&self, t: T) -> T[src]

Replaces the wrapped value with a new one, returning the old value,

Panics

Panics if the value is currently borrowed.

pub fn replace_with<F: FnOnce(&mut T) -> T>(&self, f: F) -> T[src]

Replaces the wrapped value with a new one computed from f, returning the old value.

Panics

Panics if the value is currently borrowed.

pub fn swap(&self, other: &Self)[src]

Swaps the wrapped value of self with the wrapped value of other.

Panics

Panics if the value in either PyCell is currently borrowed.
