Rust Python Objects

use python like objects in rust, such as list, for now.

have the simplicity and performance together.

be happy.

Showcase (example code)

``rust // the crate name is 'python-objects' // because there is another crate out there withpythonname // but the lib.rs (library crate of this crate) its calledpython` // so you can import like this extern crate python;

// use everything from python use python::*;

fn main() { // create a new python list from a string let mut pythonlist = List::fromstring(String::from("123123")); // since rust doesnt have function overloading // we are stuck with different names // but i think its better because its more explicit // append some values pythonlist.appendint(123); pythonlist.appendfloat(123.123); pythonlist.appendfloat(123.123); pythonlist.appendfloat(123.123); pythonlist.appendstring(String::from("asdasd")); // append a rust string pythonlist.appendlist( List::fromstring("rust's string".tostring())); // append a python string pythonlist.appendpstring( String::fromstring( String::from("python string")));

// note the python-like print
// print to stdout
print(&python_list);
// and len
// print length of list
print(len(&python_list));

} ```

output ```shell

the python list

['1', '2', '3', '1', '2', '3', 123, 123.123, 123.123, 123.123, 'asdasd', ['a', 'n', 'd', 'r', 'e', 'w'], 'python string']

the length

13 ```

as you can see the list contains char, float (f32), integer (i32), a rust string, another python list, and a python string

this is just bare bones and experimental, more features will come soon. stay still!

why ?

why not. because python concepts are very cool, but python is slow..

so what if we could use python objects in rust and have the same experience as in python (almost) ?

and things are getting much better. rust has zero-cost abstractions, meaning that every struct and trait will be deleted at compile time and they will be gone at runtime.

so we are getting python objects in rust with performance and simplity.

CONTRIBUTING

  1. fork the repo on github

  2. clone your repo to local shell git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/rust-python-objects

  3. make your branch shell git checkout -b <username>-<branch-name> note: the branch name can be whatever you want, but would be more suggestive to be a username and feature name

  4. make some changes in the source code

  5. add + commit + push changes to your forked repo

add shell git add .

commit shell git commit -m 'created the best feature every. feels so good to contribute to open source'

push shell git push github <your-branch-name>

  1. go to github to your forked repo and send a pull request

  2. wait for approval :)

NOTE

note for the user and developer

right now this project is very minimal, it will grow, the idea just came to my mind some days ago (on 21.02.2022) and the first implementation was done at 4 AM (23.02.2022) with some adrenaline.

so for now dont expect too much of this crate

peace to you!
