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
Here's a step-by-step guide to create a Python module in Rust using PyO3:
1. **Install Prerequisites**
| # Install Rust
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
source $HOME/.cargo/env
# Install Python development headers
sudo apt-get install python3-dev
|
2. **Create Rust Project**
| cargo new --lib magic
cd magic
|
3. **Edit Cargo.toml**
| [package]
name = "magic"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2021"
[lib]
name = "magic"
crate-type = ["cdylib"]
[dependencies]
pyo3 = { version = "0.20.0", features = ["extension-module"] }
|
4. **Edit src/lib.rs**

#[pyfunction]
fn do_add(a: i32, b: i32) -> i32 {
a + b
}
#[pymodule]
fn magic(_py: Python<'_>, m: &PyModule) -> PyResult<()> {
m.add_function(wrap_pyfunction!(do_add, m)?)?;
Ok(())
}
|
5. **Build the Module**
6. **Rename and Prepare the Shared Library**
| # Create a symlink or copy the library
ln -s target/release/libmagic.so magic.so
# Alternative: copy the file
# cp target/release/libmagic.so magic.so
|
7. **Run the Python Command**
| PYTHONPATH=. python3 -c 'import magic; print(magic.do_add(3, 4))'
|
This will output:
**Note:** The `PYTHONPATH=.` tells Python to look in the current directory for the module. You can also:
- Move `magic.so` to a directory in your Python path
- Install it system-wide (requires root)
- Use a virtual environment and install it there
The shared library must be named exactly `magic.so` for Python to recognize it as the `magic` module.

Query
Now please conver this answer into a JSON array that packages it all up so I don't need to think and can just copy files to specific locations and then run things. Format your answer
{"path/to/file": "contents of rust file",
"path/to/python_file": "contents of any necessary python file that exposes do_add",
"build.sh": "contents of a bash file to build the project",
... # any other files necessary
}
The only thing I will do is put files in the right place and run `bash build.sh`. Do not give any explanation of the code. ONLY ANSWER WITH A SINGLE JSON OBJECT. Your answer should start
.
