Initial Query
I want to call some rust code from python on a linux machine. Specifically, I want to be able to run
python3 -c 'import magic; print(magic.do_add(3, 4))'
and have it give me the sum of these numbers. Here, do_add should be a rust function that adds two integers.
Please give me a complete set of instructions for how to make this run, so that when I run this code as-is it will work.

Output
# Calling Rust Code from Python (Linux)
I'll guide you through creating a Rust function that adds two integers and making it callable from Python.
## Step 1: Install Rust
If you don't already have Rust installed:
| curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
# Follow the prompts and then either restart your terminal or run:
source $HOME/.cargo/env
|
## Step 2: Install required Python packages
## Step 3: Create a new project
| # Create a new directory for the project
mkdir magic_project
cd magic_project
# Initialize a new Rust project with Python bindings
maturin init
|
When prompted, select "pyo3" as the bindings type.
## Step 4: Edit the Rust code
Open `src/lib.rs` and replace its contents with:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12 | use pyo3::prelude::*;
#[pyfunction]
fn do_add(a: i64, b: i64) -> PyResult<i64> {
Ok(a + b)
}
#[pymodule]
fn magic(_py: Python, m: &PyModule) -> PyResult<()> {
m.add_function(wrap_pyfunction!(do_add, m)?)?;
Ok(())
}
|
## Step 5: Edit the Cargo.toml file
Open `Cargo.toml` and ensure it contains:
| [package]
name = "magic"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2021"
[lib]
name = "magic"
crate-type = ["cdylib"]
[dependencies]
pyo3 = { version = "0.18.3", features = ["extension-module"] }
|
Make sure the package name is "magic" so it can be imported as expected.
## Step 6: Build and install the package
## Step 7: Test it!
Now you can run:
| python3 -c 'import magic; print(magic.do_add(3, 4))'
|
This should output `7`.
## Troubleshooting
1. If you get an import error, make sure you ran `maturin develop` in the same Python environment you're using to run the test.
2. If you're not using a virtual environment and get permission errors, you might need to run `maturin develop --release` with sudo.
3. If the module name doesn't match, double-check that your Cargo.toml has `name = "magic"` and the lib.rs file defines a module named `magic`.
This approach uses PyO3 and maturin, which are the most common tools for Rust-Python interoperability.

💥 maturin failed
Caused by: Couldn't find a virtualenv or conda environment, but you need one to use this command. For maturin to find your virtualenv you need to either set VIRTUAL_ENV (through activate), set CONDA_PREFIX (through conda activate) or have a virtualenv called .venv in the current or any parent folder. See https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/latest/index.html on how to use virtualenv or use `maturin build` and `pip install <path/to/wheel>` instead.

# Calling Rust Code from Python
Here's a complete guide to create a Rust function that can be called from Python.
## Prerequisites
1. Install Rust and Cargo:
| curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
source $HOME/.cargo/env
|
2. Install required Python packages:
## Creating the Rust Library
1. Create a new Rust project:
| cargo new magic --lib
cd magic
|
2. Modify `Cargo.toml` file:
| [package]
name = "magic"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2021"
[lib]
name = "magic"
crate-type = ["cdylib"]
[dependencies]
pyo3 = { version = "0.19.0", features = ["extension-module"] }
|
3. Edit `src/lib.rs` with this code:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12 | use pyo3::prelude::*;
#[pyfunction]
fn do_add(a: i64, b: i64) -> PyResult<i64> {
Ok(a + b)
}
#[pymodule]
fn magic(_py: Python, m: &PyModule) -> PyResult<()> {
m.add_function(wrap_pyfunction!(do_add, m)?)?;
Ok(())
}
|
## Building and Installing
1. Build and install the library:
## Testing
Now you can run your Python code:
| python3 -c 'import magic; print(magic.do_add(3, 4))'
|
The output should be:
## Troubleshooting
- If you get an import error, make sure you're running the Python command in the same environment where you installed the package.
- If you make changes to the Rust code, run `maturin develop` again to rebuild.
- If you see linker errors, make sure you have a C compiler installed (like gcc or clang).
That's it! You've successfully created a Rust function that can be called from Python.
