pydantic-core VS yaegi

Funny that you ask... https://github.com/pydantic/pydantic-core Unfortunately it seems that the functionality you ask for is not (yet) part of this ...

I encourage you to checkout the official benchmarks for more realistic and detailed examples, and, as always, YMMV.

> to also be constrained by a separate set of data types which are legal in rust.

This isn't really how writing rust/python iterop works. You tend to have opaque handles you call python methods on. Here's a decent example I found skimming the code.

Thanks for pointing out to that, I did not know about it. Also attaching repo in case someone would be interested as well - https://github.com/pydantic/pydantic-core

pydandic-core [0] will hopefully solve this issue (written in Rust)

LinkedIn influencers are weird lol. Rust v Python is apples and oranges. Rust would be glued together by python just like it does with C/C++ and Java/Spark today. We’re already seeing some packages go this direction, like pydantic v2 is rewriting its core validation in rust.

Yes. There are long standing feature requests for (e.g.) the reflect package that simply don't get done because they'd break this assumption and/or force further indirection in hot paths to support "no code generation at runtime, ever".

Packages like Yaegi (that offers an interpreted Go REPL) have "know limitations, won't be addressed" also because of these assumptions.

There is always https://github.com/traefik/yaegi - a Go interpreter written to make it easy to write plugins.

I think https://github.com/traefik/yaegi comes as close as using the python interpreter in you CLI, but for Go

There's a go interpreter: https://github.com/traefik/yaegi It could run programs without compiling them, but there're some limitations.

I'd recommend looking into a different approach for plugins such as hashicorp/go-plugin (which uses multiple process PIDs and RPC communication between them) or traefik/yaegi (which implements a Go-compatible scripting language that can be interpreted at runtime and which still supports most Go modules).

Why do we need a language like Rust when we have Rust. Why not just create a Rust interpreter. (There's such an interpreter for Go, BTW, https://github.com/traefik/yaegi )

A cool solution I saw was Traefik's yaegi module. They basically created an interpreted scripting language with Go compatible syntax (turning Go into an interpreted, not compiled, language). I haven't tried this but it sounds like it brings the better parts of dynamic languages like Python's plugin support to Go - plugin writers can still write "Go" code, which can load dynamically.
