Python初始化配置

3.8 新版功能.

Python 可以使用 Py_InitializeFromConfig()PyConfig 结构体来初始化。 它可以使用 Py_PreInitialize()PyPreConfig 结构体来预初始化。

有两种配置方式:

  • The Python Configuration can be used to build a customized Python which behaves as the regular Python. For example, environment variables and command line arguments are used to configure Python.

  • The Isolated Configuration can be used to embed Python into an application. It isolates Python from the system. For example, environment variables are ignored, the LC_CTYPE locale is left unchanged and no signal handler is registered.

Py_RunMain() 函数可被用来编写定制的 Python 程序。

参见 Initialization, Finalization, and Threads.

参见

PEP 587 “Python 初始化配置”.

示例

定制的 Python 的示例总是会以隔离模式运行:

  1. int main(int argc, char **argv)
  2. {
  3. PyStatus status;
  4. PyConfig config;
  5. PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);
  6. config.isolated = 1;
  7. /* Decode command line arguments.
  8. Implicitly preinitialize Python (in isolated mode). */
  9. status = PyConfig_SetBytesArgv(&config, argc, argv);
  10. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  11. goto exception;
  12. }
  13. status = Py_InitializeFromConfig(&config);
  14. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  15. goto exception;
  16. }
  17. PyConfig_Clear(&config);
  18. return Py_RunMain();
  19. exception:
  20. PyConfig_Clear(&config);
  21. if (PyStatus_IsExit(status)) {
  22. return status.exitcode;
  23. }
  24. /* Display the error message and exit the process with
  25. non-zero exit code */
  26. Py_ExitStatusException(status);
  27. }

PyWideStringList

type PyWideStringList

wchar_t* 字符串组成的列表。

如果 length 为非零值,则 items 必须不为 NULL 并且所有字符串均必须不为 NULL

方法

  • PyStatus PyWideStringList_Append(PyWideStringList *list, const wchar_t *item)

    item 添加到 list

    Python 必须被预初始化以便调用此函数。

  • PyStatus PyWideStringList_Insert(PyWideStringList *list, Py_ssize_t index, const wchar_t *item)

    item 插入到 listindex 位置上。

    如果 index 大于等于 list 的长度,则将 item 添加到 list

    index must be greater than or equal to 0.

    Python 必须被预初始化以便调用此函数。

Structure fields:

  • Py_ssize_t length

    List 长度。

  • wchar_t **items

    列表项目。

PyStatus

type PyStatus

Structure to store an initialization function status: success, error or exit.

For an error, it can store the C function name which created the error.

Structure fields:

  • int exitcode

    Exit code. Argument passed to exit().

  • const char *err_msg

    错误信息

  • const char *func

    Name of the function which created an error, can be NULL.

Functions to create a status:

  • PyStatus PyStatus_Ok(void)

    完成。

  • PyStatus PyStatus_Error(const char *err_msg)

    Initialization error with a message.

    err_msg must not be NULL.

  • PyStatus PyStatus_NoMemory(void)

    Memory allocation failure (out of memory).

  • PyStatus PyStatus_Exit(int exitcode)

    以指定的退出代码退出 Python。

Functions to handle a status:

  • int PyStatus_Exception(PyStatus status)

    Is the status an error or an exit? If true, the exception must be handled; by calling Py_ExitStatusException() for example.

  • int PyStatus_IsError(PyStatus status)

    结果错误吗?

  • int PyStatus_IsExit(PyStatus status)

    结果是否退出?

  • void Py_ExitStatusException(PyStatus status)

    Call exit(exitcode) if status is an exit. Print the error message and exit with a non-zero exit code if status is an error. Must only be called if PyStatus_Exception(status) is non-zero.

备注

Internally, Python uses macros which set PyStatus.func, whereas functions to create a status set func to NULL.

示例:

  1. PyStatus alloc(void **ptr, size_t size)
  2. {
  3. *ptr = PyMem_RawMalloc(size);
  4. if (*ptr == NULL) {
  5. return PyStatus_NoMemory();
  6. }
  7. return PyStatus_Ok();
  8. }
  9. int main(int argc, char **argv)
  10. {
  11. void *ptr;
  12. PyStatus status = alloc(&ptr, 16);
  13. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  14. Py_ExitStatusException(status);
  15. }
  16. PyMem_Free(ptr);
  17. return 0;
  18. }

PyPreConfig

type PyPreConfig

Structure used to preinitialize Python.

Function to initialize a preconfiguration:

Structure fields:

Preinitialize Python with PyPreConfig

The preinitialization of Python:

The current preconfiguration (PyPreConfig type) is stored in _PyRuntime.preconfig.

Functions to preinitialize Python:

PyStatus Py_PreInitialize(const PyPreConfig *preconfig)

Preinitialize Python from preconfig preconfiguration.

preconfig must not be NULL.

PyStatus Py_PreInitializeFromBytesArgs(const PyPreConfig *preconfig, int argc, char *const *argv)

Preinitialize Python from preconfig preconfiguration.

Parse argv command line arguments (bytes strings) if parse_argv of preconfig is non-zero.

preconfig must not be NULL.

PyStatus Py_PreInitializeFromArgs(const PyPreConfig *preconfig, int argc, wchar_t *const *argv)

Preinitialize Python from preconfig preconfiguration.

Parse argv command line arguments (wide strings) if parse_argv of preconfig is non-zero.

preconfig must not be NULL.

The caller is responsible to handle exceptions (error or exit) using PyStatus_Exception() and Py_ExitStatusException().

For Python Configuration (PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig()), if Python is initialized with command line arguments, the command line arguments must also be passed to preinitialize Python, since they have an effect on the pre-configuration like encodings. For example, the -X utf8 command line option enables the Python UTF-8 Mode.

PyMem_SetAllocator() can be called after Py_PreInitialize() and before Py_InitializeFromConfig() to install a custom memory allocator. It can be called before Py_PreInitialize() if PyPreConfig.allocator is set to PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_NOT_SET.

Python memory allocation functions like PyMem_RawMalloc() must not be used before the Python preinitialization, whereas calling directly malloc() and free() is always safe. Py_DecodeLocale() must not be called before the Python preinitialization.

Example using the preinitialization to enable the Python UTF-8 Mode:

  1. PyStatus status;
  2. PyPreConfig preconfig;
  3. PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig(&preconfig);
  4. preconfig.utf8_mode = 1;
  5. status = Py_PreInitialize(&preconfig);
  6. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  7. Py_ExitStatusException(status);
  8. }
  9. /* at this point, Python speaks UTF-8 */
  10. Py_Initialize();
  11. /* ... use Python API here ... */
  12. Py_Finalize();

PyConfig

type PyConfig

Structure containing most parameters to configure Python.

When done, the PyConfig_Clear() function must be used to release the configuration memory.

Structure methods:

Most PyConfig methods preinitialize Python if needed. In that case, the Python preinitialization configuration (PyPreConfig) in based on the PyConfig. If configuration fields which are in common with PyPreConfig are tuned, they must be set before calling a PyConfig method:

Moreover, if PyConfig_SetArgv() or PyConfig_SetBytesArgv() is used, this method must be called before other methods, since the preinitialization configuration depends on command line arguments (if parse_argv is non-zero).

The caller of these methods is responsible to handle exceptions (error or exit) using PyStatus_Exception() and Py_ExitStatusException().

Structure fields:

  • PyWideStringList argv

    Command line arguments: sys.argv.

    Set parse_argv to 1 to parse argv the same way the regular Python parses Python command line arguments and then to strip Python arguments from argv.

    If argv is empty, an empty string is added to ensure that sys.argv always exists and is never empty.

    默认值: NULL.

    See also the orig_argv member.

  • int safe_path

    If equals to zero, Py_RunMain() prepends a potentially unsafe path to sys.path at startup:

    • If argv[0] is equal to L"-m" (python -m module), prepend the current working directory.

    • If running a script (python script.py), prepend the script’s directory. If it’s a symbolic link, resolve symbolic links.

    • Otherwise (python -c code and python), prepend an empty string, which means the current working directory.

    Set to 1 by the -P command line option and the PYTHONSAFEPATH environment variable.

    Default: 0 in Python config, 1 in isolated config.

    On Windows: use "utf-8" by default, or "mbcs" if legacy_windows_fs_encoding of PyPreConfig is non-zero.

    Default encoding on other platforms:

    • "utf-8" if PyPreConfig.utf8_mode is non-zero.

    • "ascii" if Python detects that nl_langinfo(CODESET) announces the ASCII encoding, whereas the mbstowcs() function decodes from a different encoding (usually Latin1).

    • "utf-8" if nl_langinfo(CODESET) returns an empty string.

    • Otherwise, use the locale encoding: nl_langinfo(CODESET) result.

    3.10 新版功能.

  • int parse_argv

    Parse command line arguments?

    If equals to 1, parse argv the same way the regular Python parses command line arguments, and strip Python arguments from argv.

    The PyConfig_Read() function only parses PyConfig.argv arguments once: PyConfig.parse_argv is set to 2 after arguments are parsed. Since Python arguments are strippped from PyConfig.argv, parsing arguments twice would parse the application options as Python options.

    Part of the Python Path Configuration output.

  • wchar_t *program_name

    Program name used to initialize executable and in early error messages during Python initialization.

    • If Py_SetProgramName() has been called, use its argument.

    • On macOS, use PYTHONEXECUTABLE environment variable if set.

    • If the WITH_NEXT_FRAMEWORK macro is defined, use __PYVENV_LAUNCHER__ environment variable if set.

    • Use argv[0] of argv if available and non-empty.

    • Otherwise, use L"python" on Windows, or L"python3" on other platforms.

    默认值: NULL.

    Part of the Python Path Configuration input.

  • wchar_t *pycache_prefix

    Directory where cached .pyc files are written: sys.pycache_prefix.

    If NULL, sys.pycache_prefix is set to None.

    默认值: NULL.

  • int quiet

    Quiet mode. If greater than 0, don’t display the copyright and version at Python startup in interactive mode.

    Set to 1 by -X showrefcount command line option.

    Need a debug build of Python (the Py_REF_DEBUG macro must be defined).

    默认值: 0.

  • int site_import

    Import the site module at startup?

    If equal to zero, disable the import of the module site and the site-dependent manipulations of sys.path that it entails.

    Also disable these manipulations if the site module is explicitly imported later (call site.main() if you want them to be triggered).

    Set to 0 by the -S command line option.

    sys.flags.no_site is set to the inverted value of site_import.

    默认值: 1.

  • int skip_source_first_line

    默认值: 0.

  • wchar_t *stdio_encoding

  • wchar_t *stdio_errors

    Use the PYTHONIOENCODING environment variable if it is non-empty.

    Default encoding:

    Default error handler:

    • On Windows: use "surrogateescape".

    • "surrogateescape" if PyPreConfig.utf8_mode is non-zero, or if the LC_CTYPE locale is “C” or “POSIX”.

    • "strict" otherwise.

    默认值: 0.

  • PyWideStringList warnoptions

    Options of the warnings module to build warnings filters, lowest to highest priority: sys.warnoptions.

    The warnings module adds sys.warnoptions in the reverse order: the last PyConfig.warnoptions item becomes the first item of warnings.filters which is checked first (highest priority).

    The -W command line options adds its value to warnoptions, it can be used multiple times.

    The PYTHONWARNINGS environment variable can also be used to add warning options. Multiple options can be specified, separated by commas (,).

    Default: empty list.

    默认值: 1.

  • PyWideStringList xoptions

    Values of the -X command line options: sys._xoptions.

    Default: empty list.

If parse_argv is non-zero, argv arguments are parsed the same way the regular Python parses command line arguments, and Python arguments are stripped from argv.

The xoptions options are parsed to set other options: see the -X command line option.

在 3.9 版更改: The show_alloc_count field has been removed.

Initialization with PyConfig

Function to initialize Python:

PyStatus Py_InitializeFromConfig(const PyConfig *config)

Initialize Python from config configuration.

The caller is responsible to handle exceptions (error or exit) using PyStatus_Exception() and Py_ExitStatusException().

If PyImport_FrozenModules(), PyImport_AppendInittab() or PyImport_ExtendInittab() are used, they must be set or called after Python preinitialization and before the Python initialization. If Python is initialized multiple times, PyImport_AppendInittab() or PyImport_ExtendInittab() must be called before each Python initialization.

The current configuration (PyConfig type) is stored in PyInterpreterState.config.

Example setting the program name:

  1. void init_python(void)
  2. {
  3. PyStatus status;
  4. PyConfig config;
  5. PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);
  6. /* Set the program name. Implicitly preinitialize Python. */
  7. status = PyConfig_SetString(&config, &config.program_name,
  8. L"/path/to/my_program");
  9. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  10. goto exception;
  11. }
  12. status = Py_InitializeFromConfig(&config);
  13. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  14. goto exception;
  15. }
  16. PyConfig_Clear(&config);
  17. return;
  18. exception:
  19. PyConfig_Clear(&config);
  20. Py_ExitStatusException(status);
  21. }

More complete example modifying the default configuration, read the configuration, and then override some parameters. Note that since 3.11, many parameters are not calculated until initialization, and so values cannot be read from the configuration structure. Any values set before initialize is called will be left unchanged by initialization:

  1. PyStatus init_python(const char *program_name)
  2. {
  3. PyStatus status;
  4. PyConfig config;
  5. PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);
  6. /* Set the program name before reading the configuration
  7. (decode byte string from the locale encoding).
  8. Implicitly preinitialize Python. */
  9. status = PyConfig_SetBytesString(&config, &config.program_name,
  10. program_name);
  11. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  12. goto done;
  13. }
  14. /* Read all configuration at once */
  15. status = PyConfig_Read(&config);
  16. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  17. goto done;
  18. }
  19. /* Specify sys.path explicitly */
  20. /* If you want to modify the default set of paths, finish
  21. initialization first and then use PySys_GetObject("path") */
  22. config.module_search_paths_set = 1;
  23. status = PyWideStringList_Append(&config.module_search_paths,
  24. L"/path/to/stdlib");
  25. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  26. goto done;
  27. }
  28. status = PyWideStringList_Append(&config.module_search_paths,
  29. L"/path/to/more/modules");
  30. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  31. goto done;
  32. }
  33. /* Override executable computed by PyConfig_Read() */
  34. status = PyConfig_SetString(&config, &config.executable,
  35. L"/path/to/my_executable");
  36. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  37. goto done;
  38. }
  39. status = Py_InitializeFromConfig(&config);
  40. done:
  41. PyConfig_Clear(&config);
  42. return status;
  43. }

Isolated Configuration

PyPreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig() and PyConfig_InitIsolatedConfig() functions create a configuration to isolate Python from the system. For example, to embed Python into an application.

This configuration ignores global configuration variables, environment variables, command line arguments (PyConfig.argv is not parsed) and user site directory. The C standard streams (ex: stdout) and the LC_CTYPE locale are left unchanged. Signal handlers are not installed.

Configuration files are still used with this configuration to determine paths that are unspecified. Ensure PyConfig.home is specified to avoid computing the default path configuration.

Python Configuration

PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig() and PyConfig_InitPythonConfig() functions create a configuration to build a customized Python which behaves as the regular Python.

Environments variables and command line arguments are used to configure Python, whereas global configuration variables are ignored.

This function enables C locale coercion (PEP 538) and Python UTF-8 Mode (PEP 540) depending on the LC_CTYPE locale, PYTHONUTF8 and PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE environment variables.

Python Path Configuration

PyConfig contains multiple fields for the path configuration:

If at least one “output field” is not set, Python calculates the path configuration to fill unset fields. If module_search_paths_set is equal to 0, module_search_paths is overridden and module_search_paths_set is set to 1.

It is possible to completely ignore the function calculating the default path configuration by setting explicitly all path configuration output fields listed above. A string is considered as set even if it is non-empty. module_search_paths is considered as set if module_search_paths_set is set to 1. In this case, module_search_paths will be used without modification.

Set pathconfig_warnings to 0 to suppress warnings when calculating the path configuration (Unix only, Windows does not log any warning).

If base_prefix or base_exec_prefix fields are not set, they inherit their value from prefix and exec_prefix respectively.

Py_RunMain() and Py_Main() modify sys.path:

If site_import is non-zero, sys.path can be modified by the site module. If user_site_directory is non-zero and the user’s site-package directory exists, the site module appends the user’s site-package directory to sys.path.

The following configuration files are used by the path configuration:

  • pyvenv.cfg

  • ._pth file (ex: python._pth)

  • pybuilddir.txt (仅Unix)

If a ._pth file is present:

The __PYVENV_LAUNCHER__ environment variable is used to set PyConfig.base_executable

Py_RunMain()

int Py_RunMain(void)

Execute the command (PyConfig.run_command), the script (PyConfig.run_filename) or the module (PyConfig.run_module) specified on the command line or in the configuration.

By default and when if -i option is used, run the REPL.

Finally, finalizes Python and returns an exit status that can be passed to the exit() function.

See Python Configuration for an example of customized Python always running in isolated mode using Py_RunMain().

Py_GetArgcArgv()

void Py_GetArgcArgv(int *argc, wchar_t ***argv)

Get the original command line arguments, before Python modified them.

See also PyConfig.orig_argv member.

Multi-Phase Initialization Private Provisional API

This section is a private provisional API introducing multi-phase initialization, the core feature of PEP 432:

  • “Core” initialization phase, “bare minimum Python”:

    • Builtin types;

    • Builtin exceptions;

    • Builtin and frozen modules;

    • The sys module is only partially initialized (ex: sys.path doesn’t exist yet).

  • “Main” initialization phase, Python is fully initialized:

私有临时API:

  • PyConfig._init_main: if set to 0, Py_InitializeFromConfig() stops at the “Core” initialization phase.

  • PyConfig._isolated_interpreter: if non-zero, disallow threads, subprocesses and fork.

PyStatus _Py_InitializeMain(void)

Move to the “Main” initialization phase, finish the Python initialization.

No module is imported during the “Core” phase and the importlib module is not configured: the Path Configuration is only applied during the “Main” phase. It may allow to customize Python in Python to override or tune the Path Configuration, maybe install a custom sys.meta_path importer or an import hook, etc.

It may become possible to calculatin the Path Configuration in Python, after the Core phase and before the Main phase, which is one of the PEP 432 motivation.

The “Core” phase is not properly defined: what should be and what should not be available at this phase is not specified yet. The API is marked as private and provisional: the API can be modified or even be removed anytime until a proper public API is designed.

Example running Python code between “Core” and “Main” initialization phases:

  1. void init_python(void)
  2. {
  3. PyStatus status;
  4. PyConfig config;
  5. PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);
  6. config._init_main = 0;
  7. /* ... customize 'config' configuration ... */
  8. status = Py_InitializeFromConfig(&config);
  9. PyConfig_Clear(&config);
  10. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  11. Py_ExitStatusException(status);
  12. }
  13. /* Use sys.stderr because sys.stdout is only created
  14. by _Py_InitializeMain() */
  15. int res = PyRun_SimpleString(
  16. "import sys; "
  17. "print('Run Python code before _Py_InitializeMain', "
  18. "file=sys.stderr)");
  19. if (res < 0) {
  20. exit(1);
  21. }
  22. /* ... put more configuration code here ... */
  23. status = _Py_InitializeMain();
  24. if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
  25. Py_ExitStatusException(status);
  26. }
  27. }
