# Context Variables Objects

Ajouté dans la version 3.7.

Modifié dans la version 3.7.1:

Note

In Python 3.7.1 the signatures of all context variables C APIs were changed to use `PyObject` pointers instead of `PyContext`, `PyContextVar`, and `PyContextToken`, e.g.:

    // in 3.7.0:
    PyContext *PyContext_New(void);

    // in 3.7.1+:
    PyObject *PyContext_New(void);

See bpo-34762 for more details.

This section details the public C API for the `contextvars` module.

type PyContext

  The C structure used to represent a `contextvars.Context` object.

type PyContextVar

  The C structure used to represent a `contextvars.ContextVar` object.

type PyContextToken

  The C structure used to represent a `contextvars.Token` object.

PyTypeObject PyContext_Type

  The type object representing the context type.

PyTypeObject PyContextVar_Type

  The type object representing the context variable type.

PyTypeObject PyContextToken_Type

  The type object representing the context variable token type.

Macros pour vérifier les types :

int PyContext_CheckExact(PyObject *o)

  Return true if o is of type `PyContext_Type`. o must not be `NULL`. This function always succeeds.

int PyContextVar_CheckExact(PyObject *o)

  Return true if o is of type `PyContextVar_Type`. o must not be `NULL`. This function always succeeds.

int PyContextToken_CheckExact(PyObject *o)

  Return true if o is of type `PyContextToken_Type`. o must not be `NULL`. This function always succeeds.

Context object management functions:

PyObject *PyContext_New(void)
  Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.

  Create a new empty context object. Returns `NULL` if an error has occurred.

PyObject *PyContext_Copy(PyObject *ctx)
  Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.

  Create a shallow copy of the passed ctx context object. Returns `NULL` if an error has occurred.

PyObject *PyContext_CopyCurrent(void)
  Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.

  Create a shallow copy of the current thread context. Returns `NULL` if an error has occurred.

int PyContext_Enter(PyObject *ctx)

  Set ctx as the current context for the current thread. Returns `0` on success, and `-1` on error.

int PyContext_Exit(PyObject *ctx)

  Deactivate the ctx context and restore the previous context as the current context for the current thread. Returns `0` on success, and `-1` on error.

int PyContext_AddWatcher(PyContext_WatchCallback callback)

  Register callback as a context object watcher for the current interpreter. Return an ID which may be passed to `PyContext_ClearWatcher()`. In case of error (e.g. no more watcher IDs available), return `-1` and set an exception.

  Ajouté dans la version 3.14.

int PyContext_ClearWatcher(int watcher_id)

  Clear watcher identified by watcher_id previously returned from `PyContext_AddWatcher()` for the current interpreter. Return `0` on success, or `-1` and set an exception on error (e.g. if the given watcher_id was never registered.)

  Ajouté dans la version 3.14.

type PyContextEvent

  Enumeration of possible context object watcher events:

  - `Py_CONTEXT_SWITCHED`: The current context has switched to a different context. The object passed to the watch callback is the now-current `contextvars.Context` object, or None if no context is current.

  Ajouté dans la version 3.14.

typedef int (*PyContext_WatchCallback)(PyContextEvent event, PyObject *obj)

  Context object watcher callback function. The object passed to the callback is event-specific; see `PyContextEvent` for details.

  If the callback returns with an exception set, it must return `-1`; this exception will be printed as an unraisable exception using `PyErr_FormatUnraisable()`. Otherwise it should return `0`.

  There may already be a pending exception set on entry to the callback. In this case, the callback should return `0` with the same exception still set. This means the callback may not call any other API that can set an exception unless it saves and clears the exception state first, and restores it before returning.

  Ajouté dans la version 3.14.

Context variable functions:

PyObject *PyContextVar_New(const char *name, PyObject *def)
  Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.

  Create a new `ContextVar` object. The name parameter is used for introspection and debug purposes. The def parameter specifies a default value for the context variable, or `NULL` for no default. If an error has occurred, this function returns `NULL`.

int PyContextVar_Get(PyObject *var, PyObject *default_value, PyObject **value)

  Get the value of a context variable. Returns `-1` if an error has occurred during lookup, and `0` if no error occurred, whether or not a value was found.

  If the context variable was found, value will be a pointer to it. If the context variable was not found, value will point to:

  - default_value, if not `NULL`;

  - the default value of var, if not `NULL`;

  - `NULL`

  Except for `NULL`, the function returns a new reference.

PyObject *PyContextVar_Set(PyObject *var, PyObject *value)
  Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.

  Set the value of var to value in the current context. Returns a new token object for this change, or `NULL` if an error has occurred.

int PyContextVar_Reset(PyObject *var, PyObject *token)

  Reset the state of the var context variable to that it was in before `PyContextVar_Set()` that returned the token was called. This function returns `0` on success and `-1` on error.
