python-rust-module

A sample implementation of a Python module with a Rust backend

This Python module uses Rust code for performance-critical parts. The standard approach is using PyO3, which makes creating Python extensions in Rust straightforward.

Build

1. Checkout the repository git clone https://github.com/hstm/python-rust-module.git
2. Create a Python venv python -m venv rust_module and activate it source rust_module/bin/activate
3. Install maturin pip install maturin
4. Run maturin develop to build and install the Python wheel.

Test

Then in your Python shell, run some tests with the new module:

from my_rust_module import fast_computation, process_with_validation

result1 = fast_computation(100)
result2 = process_with_validation([1.0, 4.0, 9.0, 16.0])
