How does Rust Python ffi work?
I've never used pyo3, just cpython, but the latter at least let me do things like:
-
Announcing Rust 1.59.0
And don't forget https://github.com/dgrunwald/rust-cpython to complete the circle
-
Hey, i begin my journey into Rust !
For interoperating with Python, check out PyO3 or rust-cpython. (More generally, see Rust Interop and Are We Extending Yet?)
-
Should I learn Rust coming from Python?
You probably should learn Rust. Aside from the process of learning new and different languages making you a better programmer, rust-cpython, PyO3, or Interoptopus make it easy to expose Python APIs from your Rust code. (eg. So it's easy to compile the same codebase as both a Python module and a WebAssembly module.)
-
What do you NOT like about Rust?
Have you looked into abi_stable, flapigen, interoptopus, cbindgen, PyO3, or rust-cpython?

Strengths and applications of Rust
Personally, I'm not willing to compromise on my GUI look and feel, so I use PyQt or PySide to write my GUIs against the QWidget API (I'm a KDE user and Python is the only language with mature memory-safe bindings to Qt) and, if the project can be structured with a frontend-backend separation, I use rust-cpython or PyO3 to write a backend in Rust that the Python frontend can import. Sort of using Python/Rust as a QWidget analogue to the QML/C++ architecture promoted for Qt Quick. (Which I don't use because it's still too incomplete on Kubuntu 20.04 LTS.)
-
From Python to Rust, should I?
also, check out rust-cpython, PyO3, and maturin, among other things. They're really nice options for using Rust for its strengths and Python for its strengths within the same project.

How we built our Python Client that's mostly Rust
This section uses flapigen to expand the foreign_class macro into many cpython functions as an extension module, and cargo compiles it as a cdylib. If you want to see what that looks like, install cargo-expand and run cargo expand. You'll get a lot of generated rust code.

How do i go about building a vidoe conferencing app?
For Python specifically, In addition to using rust-cpython or PyO3, maturin makes it really comfortable to build, package, and publish Rust code into Python packages and, if your niche doesn't quite fit, there's setuptools-python which might do it.

Does rust have function works like eval?
hlua or rlua are what you want for Lua, rust-cpython or PyO3 for Python, rutie for Ruby, and possibly deno_core for JavaScript.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (14/2023)!
Ermm... actually I meant something like this: playground, but then I realized it's basically (de)serialization, and I just found that we already have a crate for that: bincode.

Convert a base-64 encoded, serialised, Rust struct to a Python class
One, figure out the bincode format (documented here: https://github.com/bincode-org/bincode/blob/trunk/docs/spec.md) and write your own parser. Maybe a one-off that specifically only handles this one data structure would be fairly straightforward.

impl serde::Deserialize... is it really that complicated?
Step 1: The Deserialize type requests data from the Deserializer with one of the deserialize_type methods. This gives it an opportunity to provide certain metadata about the type: structs provide a list of fields, enums provide a list of variants, tuples provide a length, etc. Some data formats (notably bincode) require this metadata to drive deserializing, as the wire format is not self-describing. Crucially, the Deserialize type also provides a visitor that is capable of receiving the requested data from the Deserializer.

A nicer way to pack this message?
Alternatively, give Bincode a try.

Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (9/2022)!
Like separate instructions? I was thinking if a instruction have unknown length I make sure I have some kind of header field that tells the data length of the instruction so receiver knows when next instruction starts. And I was planning on using Bincode with serde to serialize and dezerialize like structs and stuff.

Easily converts a struct into Vec<u8> and back.
Isn't this essentially bincode?

Does rust have function works like eval?
This is similar in practice to using abi_stable, and end-users will still receive compiled files, but your plugins will be sandboxed and a single build will work on all platforms. The downside is that it's a bit more work because WebAssembly's support for passing complex data types between the host and the WebAssembly code is in the preliminary stages, so you need to do something like using Serde to encode your data into something like Bincode or MessagePack (or JSON and friends) to hand it off between the host and the plugin.

Storing variable data structures
What kind of access do you need to the data ? You should be able to make a safe api to the Vec class by iterating on in in chunks, and using a closure to translate data between u8 and other representations. ( f32, u32 has the fomr_ne_bytes() / to_ne_bytes() methods ) You could make a helper function that takes a format description ( i.e. "fffuucc" , and calculates the size of the chunk, and generates a closure for reading accessing the data, of the layout is completely dynamic. This closure could use an enum to wrap the different primitive types. ) Or if the layouts are known at compile time , you could use procedural macros to generate code for serializaion / deserialization inot the the [u8] , though https://crates.io/crates/bincode may already do that for you )

Serde Bincode not De-serializing Bools?
Apparently there's a lot of discussion going on about that (3 of the 4 open tickets on the bincode implementation are about it), for example this one.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing rust-cpython and bincode you can also consider the following projects:
PyO3 - Rust bindings for the Python interpreter
serde - Serialization framework for Rust
lxml - The lxml XML toolkit for Python
msgpack-rust - MessagePack implementation for Rust / msgpack.org[Rust]
rustpy - Rust + Python = ????
Rustup - The Rust toolchain installer
rust-cbor - CBOR (binary JSON) for Rust with automatic type based decoding and encoding.
crate-deps
nue - I/O and binary data encoding for Rust
milksnake - A setuptools/wheel/cffi extension to embed a binary data in wheels
