# The Very High Level Layer

The functions in this chapter will let you execute Python source code given in a file or a buffer, but they will not let you interact in a more detailed way with the interpreter.

Several of these functions accept a start symbol from the grammar as a parameter. The available start symbols are `Py_eval_input`, `Py_file_input`, `Py_single_input`, and `Py_func_type_input`. These are described following the functions which accept them as parameters.

Note also that several of these functions take FILE* parameters. One particular issue which needs to be handled carefully is that the `FILE` structure for different C libraries can be different and incompatible. Under Windows (at least), it is possible for dynamically linked extensions to actually use different libraries, so care should be taken that FILE* parameters are only passed to these functions if it is certain that they were created by the same library that the Python runtime is using.

int PyRun_AnyFile(FILE *fp, const char *filename)

  This is a simplified interface to `PyRun_AnyFileExFlags()` below, leaving closeit set to `0` and flags set to `NULL`.

int PyRun_AnyFileFlags(FILE *fp, const char *filename, PyCompilerFlags *flags)

  This is a simplified interface to `PyRun_AnyFileExFlags()` below, leaving the closeit argument set to `0`.

int PyRun_AnyFileEx(FILE *fp, const char *filename, int closeit)

  This is a simplified interface to `PyRun_AnyFileExFlags()` below, leaving the flags argument set to `NULL`.

int PyRun_AnyFileExFlags(FILE *fp, const char *filename, int closeit, PyCompilerFlags *flags)

  If fp refers to a file associated with an interactive device (console or terminal input or Unix pseudo-terminal), return the value of `PyRun_InteractiveLoop()`, otherwise return the result of `PyRun_SimpleFile()`. filename is decoded from the filesystem encoding (`sys.getfilesystemencoding()`). If filename is `NULL`, this function uses `"???"` as the filename. If closeit is true, the file is closed before `PyRun_SimpleFileExFlags()` returns.

int PyRun_SimpleString(const char *command)

  This is a simplified interface to `PyRun_SimpleStringFlags()` below, leaving the `PyCompilerFlags`* argument set to `NULL`.

int PyRun_SimpleStringFlags(const char *command, PyCompilerFlags *flags)

  Executes the Python source code from command in the `__main__` module according to the flags argument. If `__main__` does not already exist, it is created. Returns `0` on success or `-1` if an exception was raised. If there was an error, there is no way to get the exception information. For the meaning of flags, see below.

  Note that if an otherwise unhandled `SystemExit` is raised, this function will not return `-1`, but exit the process, as long as `PyConfig.inspect` is zero.

int PyRun_SimpleFile(FILE *fp, const char *filename)

  This is a simplified interface to `PyRun_SimpleFileExFlags()` below, leaving closeit set to `0` and flags set to `NULL`.

int PyRun_SimpleFileEx(FILE *fp, const char *filename, int closeit)

  This is a simplified interface to `PyRun_SimpleFileExFlags()` below, leaving flags set to `NULL`.

int PyRun_SimpleFileExFlags(FILE *fp, const char *filename, int closeit, PyCompilerFlags *flags)

  Similar to `PyRun_SimpleStringFlags()`, but the Python source code is read from fp instead of an in-memory string. filename should be the name of the file, it is decoded from filesystem encoding and error handler. If closeit is true, the file is closed before `PyRun_SimpleFileExFlags()` returns.

  Informacja

  On Windows, fp should be opened as binary mode (e.g. `fopen(filename, "rb")`). Otherwise, Python may not handle script file with LF line ending correctly.

int PyRun_InteractiveOneObject(FILE *fp, PyObject *filename, PyCompilerFlags *flags)

  Read and execute a single statement from a file associated with an interactive device according to the flags argument. The user will be prompted using `sys.ps1` and `sys.ps2`. filename must be a Python `str` object.

  Returns `0` when the input was executed successfully, `-1` if there was an exception, or an error code from the `errcode.h` include file distributed as part of Python if there was a parse error. (Note that `errcode.h` is not included by `Python.h`, so must be included specifically if needed.)

int PyRun_InteractiveOne(FILE *fp, const char *filename)

  This is a simplified interface to `PyRun_InteractiveOneFlags()` below, leaving flags set to `NULL`.

int PyRun_InteractiveOneFlags(FILE *fp, const char *filename, PyCompilerFlags *flags)

  Similar to `PyRun_InteractiveOneObject()`, but filename is a const char*, which is decoded from the filesystem encoding and error handler.

int PyRun_InteractiveLoop(FILE *fp, const char *filename)

  This is a simplified interface to `PyRun_InteractiveLoopFlags()` below, leaving flags set to `NULL`.

int PyRun_InteractiveLoopFlags(FILE *fp, const char *filename, PyCompilerFlags *flags)

  Read and execute statements from a file associated with an interactive device until EOF is reached. The user will be prompted using `sys.ps1` and `sys.ps2`. filename is decoded from the filesystem encoding and error handler. Returns `0` at EOF or a negative number upon failure.

int (*PyOS_InputHook)(void)
  Część stabilnego ABI.

  Can be set to point to a function with the prototype `int func(void)`. The function will be called when Python’s interpreter prompt is about to become idle and wait for user input from the terminal. The return value is ignored. Overriding this hook can be used to integrate the interpreter’s prompt with other event loops, as done in `Modules/_tkinter.c` in the Python source code.

  Zmienione w wersji 3.12: This function is only called from the main interpreter.

char *(*PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer)(FILE*, FILE*, const char*)

  Can be set to point to a function with the prototype `char *func(FILE *stdin, FILE *stdout, char *prompt)`, overriding the default function used to read a single line of input at the interpreter’s prompt. The function is expected to output the string prompt if it’s not `NULL`, and then read a line of input from the provided standard input file, returning the resulting string. For example, The `readline` module sets this hook to provide line-editing and tab-completion features.

  The result must be a string allocated by `PyMem_RawMalloc()` or `PyMem_RawRealloc()`, or `NULL` if an error occurred.

  Zmienione w wersji 3.4: The result must be allocated by `PyMem_RawMalloc()` or `PyMem_RawRealloc()`, instead of being allocated by `PyMem_Malloc()` or `PyMem_Realloc()`.

  Zmienione w wersji 3.12: This function is only called from the main interpreter.

  Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja.

  Execute Python source code from str in the context specified by the objects globals and locals with the compiler flags specified by flags. globals must be a dictionary; locals can be any object that implements the mapping protocol. The parameter start specifies the start symbol and must one of the available start symbols.

  Returns the result of executing the code as a Python object, or `NULL` if an exception was raised.

PyObject *PyRun_FileExFlags(FILE *fp, const char *filename, int start, PyObject *globals, PyObject *locals, int closeit, PyCompilerFlags *flags)
  Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja.

  Similar to `PyRun_StringFlags()`, but the Python source code is read from fp instead of an in-memory string. filename should be the name of the file, it is decoded from the filesystem encoding and error handler. If closeit is true, the file is closed before `PyRun_FileExFlags()` returns.

PyObject *Py_CompileString(const char *str, const char *filename, int start)
  Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja. Część stabilnego ABI.

  This is a simplified interface to `Py_CompileStringFlags()` below, leaving flags set to `NULL`.

PyObject *Py_CompileStringFlags(const char *str, const char *filename, int start, PyCompilerFlags *flags)
  Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja.

  This is a simplified interface to `Py_CompileStringExFlags()` below, with optimize set to `-1`.

PyObject *Py_CompileStringObject(const char *str, PyObject *filename, int start, PyCompilerFlags *flags, int optimize)
  Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja.

  Parse and compile the Python source code in str, returning the resulting code object. The start symbol is given by start; this can be used to constrain the code which can be compiled and should be available start symbols. The filename specified by filename is used to construct the code object and may appear in tracebacks or `SyntaxError` exception messages. This returns `NULL` if the code cannot be parsed or compiled.

  The integer optimize specifies the optimization level of the compiler; a value of `-1` selects the optimization level of the interpreter as given by `-O` options. Explicit levels are `0` (no optimization; `__debug__` is true), `1` (asserts are removed, `__debug__` is false) or `2` (docstrings are removed too).

  Dodane w wersji 3.4.

PyObject *Py_CompileStringExFlags(const char *str, const char *filename, int start, PyCompilerFlags *flags, int optimize)
  Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja.

  Like `Py_CompileStringObject()`, but filename is a byte string decoded from the filesystem encoding and error handler.

  Dodane w wersji 3.2.

PyObject *PyEval_EvalCode(PyObject *co, PyObject *globals, PyObject *locals)
  Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja. Część stabilnego ABI.

  This is a simplified interface to `PyEval_EvalCodeEx()`, with just the code object, and global and local variables. The other arguments are set to `NULL`.

PyObject *PyEval_EvalCodeEx(PyObject *co, PyObject *globals, PyObject *locals, PyObject *const *args, int argcount, PyObject *const *kws, int kwcount, PyObject *const *defs, int defcount, PyObject *kwdefs, PyObject *closure)
  Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja. Część stabilnego ABI.

  Evaluate a precompiled code object, given a particular environment for its evaluation. This environment consists of a dictionary of global variables, a mapping object of local variables, arrays of arguments, keywords and defaults, a dictionary of default values for keyword-only arguments and a closure tuple of cells.

PyObject *PyEval_EvalFrame(PyFrameObject *f)
  Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja. Część stabilnego ABI.

  Evaluate an execution frame. This is a simplified interface to `PyEval_EvalFrameEx()`, for backward compatibility.

PyObject *PyEval_EvalFrameEx(PyFrameObject *f, int throwflag)
  Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja. Część stabilnego ABI.

  This is the main, unvarnished function of Python interpretation. The code object associated with the execution frame f is executed, interpreting bytecode and executing calls as needed. The additional throwflag parameter can mostly be ignored - if true, then it causes an exception to immediately be thrown; this is used for the `throw()` methods of generator objects.

  Zmienione w wersji 3.4: This function now includes a debug assertion to help ensure that it does not silently discard an active exception.

int PyEval_MergeCompilerFlags(PyCompilerFlags *cf)

  This function changes the flags of the current evaluation frame, and returns true on success, false on failure.

struct PyCompilerFlags

  This is the structure used to hold compiler flags. In cases where code is only being compiled, it is passed as `int flags`, and in cases where code is being executed, it is passed as `PyCompilerFlags *flags`. In this case, `from __future__ import` can modify flags.

  Whenever `PyCompilerFlags *flags` is `NULL`, `cf_flags` is treated as equal to `0`, and any modification due to `from __future__ import` is discarded.

  int cf_flags

    Compiler flags.

  int cf_feature_version

    cf_feature_version is the minor Python version. It should be initialized to `PY_MINOR_VERSION`.

    The field is ignored by default, it is used if and only if `PyCF_ONLY_AST` flag is set in `cf_flags`.

  Zmienione w wersji 3.8: Added cf_feature_version field.

  The available compiler flags are accessible as macros:

  PyCF_ALLOW_TOP_LEVEL_AWAIT
  PyCF_ONLY_AST
  PyCF_OPTIMIZED_AST
  PyCF_TYPE_COMMENTS

    See compiler flags in documentation of the `ast` Python module, which exports these constants under the same names.

  The „`PyCF`” flags above can be combined with „`CO_FUTURE`” flags such as `CO_FUTURE_ANNOTATIONS` to enable features normally selectable using future statements. See Code Object Flags for a complete list.

## Available start symbols

int Py_eval_input

  The start symbol from the Python grammar for isolated expressions; for use with `Py_CompileString()`.

int Py_file_input

  The start symbol from the Python grammar for sequences of statements as read from a file or other source; for use with `Py_CompileString()`. This is the symbol to use when compiling arbitrarily long Python source code.

int Py_single_input

  The start symbol from the Python grammar for a single statement; for use with `Py_CompileString()`. This is the symbol used for the interactive interpreter loop.

int Py_func_type_input

  The start symbol from the Python grammar for a function type; for use with `Py_CompileString()`. This is used to parse „signature type comments” from PEP 484.

  This requires the `PyCF_ONLY_AST` flag to be set.
