Python Initialization Configuration
***********************************
.. versionadded:: 3.8
Python can be initialized with :c:func:`Py_InitializeFromConfig` and the
:c:type:`PyConfig` structure. It can be preinitialized with
:c:func:`Py_PreInitialize` and the :c:type:`PyPreConfig` structure.
There are two kinds of configuration:
* The :ref:`Python Configuration <init-python-config>` can be used to build a
customized Python which behaves as the regular Python. For example,
environment variables and command line arguments are used to configure
Python.
* The :ref:`Isolated Configuration <init-isolated-conf>` can be used to embed
Python into an application. It isolates Python from the system. For example,
environment variables are ignored, the LC_CTYPE locale is left unchanged and
no signal handler is registered.
The :c:func:`Py_RunMain` function can be used to write a customized Python
program.
See also :ref:`Initialization, Finalization, and Threads <initialization>`.
.. seealso::
:pep:`587` "Python Initialization Configuration".
Example
=======
Example of customized Python always running in isolated mode::
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
PyStatus status;
PyConfig config;
PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);
config.isolated = 1;
/* Decode command line arguments.
Implicitly preinitialize Python (in isolated mode). */
status = PyConfig_SetBytesArgv(&config, argc, argv);
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
goto exception;
}
status = Py_InitializeFromConfig(&config);
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
goto exception;
}
PyConfig_Clear(&config);
return Py_RunMain();
exception:
PyConfig_Clear(&config);
if (PyStatus_IsExit(status)) {
return status.exitcode;
}
/* Display the error message and exit the process with
non-zero exit code */
Py_ExitStatusException(status);
}
PyWideStringList
================
.. c:type:: PyWideStringList
List of ``wchar_t*`` strings.
If *length* is non-zero, *items* must be non-``NULL`` and all strings must be
non-``NULL``.
Methods:
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyWideStringList_Append(PyWideStringList *list, const wchar_t *item)
Append *item* to *list*.
Python must be preinitialized to call this function.
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyWideStringList_Insert(PyWideStringList *list, Py_ssize_t index, const wchar_t *item)
Insert *item* into *list* at *index*.
If *index* is greater than or equal to *list* length, append *item* to
*list*.
*index* must be greater than or equal to ``0``.
Python must be preinitialized to call this function.
Structure fields:
.. c:member:: Py_ssize_t length
List length.
.. c:member:: wchar_t** items
List items.
PyStatus
========
.. c:type:: PyStatus
Structure to store an initialization function status: success, error
or exit.
For an error, it can store the C function name which created the error.
Structure fields:
.. c:member:: int exitcode
Exit code. Argument passed to ``exit()``.
.. c:member:: const char *err_msg
Error message.
.. c:member:: const char *func
Name of the function which created an error, can be ``NULL``.
Functions to create a status:
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyStatus_Ok(void)
Success.
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyStatus_Error(const char *err_msg)
Initialization error with a message.
*err_msg* must not be ``NULL``.
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyStatus_NoMemory(void)
Memory allocation failure (out of memory).
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyStatus_Exit(int exitcode)
Exit Python with the specified exit code.
Functions to handle a status:
.. c:function:: int PyStatus_Exception(PyStatus status)
Is the status an error or an exit? If true, the exception must be
handled; by calling :c:func:`Py_ExitStatusException` for example.
.. c:function:: int PyStatus_IsError(PyStatus status)
Is the result an error?
.. c:function:: int PyStatus_IsExit(PyStatus status)
Is the result an exit?
.. c:function:: void Py_ExitStatusException(PyStatus status)
Call ``exit(exitcode)`` if *status* is an exit. Print the error
message and exit with a non-zero exit code if *status* is an error. Must
only be called if ``PyStatus_Exception(status)`` is non-zero.
.. note::
Internally, Python uses macros which set ``PyStatus.func``,
whereas functions to create a status set ``func`` to ``NULL``.
Example::
PyStatus alloc(void **ptr, size_t size)
{
*ptr = PyMem_RawMalloc(size);
if (*ptr == NULL) {
return PyStatus_NoMemory();
}
return PyStatus_Ok();
}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
void *ptr;
PyStatus status = alloc(&ptr, 16);
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
Py_ExitStatusException(status);
}
PyMem_Free(ptr);
return 0;
}
PyPreConfig
===========
.. c:type:: PyPreConfig
Structure used to preinitialize Python.
Function to initialize a preconfiguration:
.. c:function:: void PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig(PyPreConfig *preconfig)
Initialize the preconfiguration with :ref:`Python Configuration
<init-python-config>`.
.. c:function:: void PyPreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig(PyPreConfig *preconfig)
Initialize the preconfiguration with :ref:`Isolated Configuration
<init-isolated-conf>`.
Structure fields:
.. c:member:: int allocator
Name of the Python memory allocators:
* ``PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_NOT_SET`` (``0``): don't change memory allocators
(use defaults).
* ``PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_DEFAULT`` (``1``): :ref:`default memory allocators
<default-memory-allocators>`.

* ``PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_MALLOC_DEBUG`` (``4``): force usage of
``malloc()`` with :ref:`debug hooks <pymem-debug-hooks>`.
* ``PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_PYMALLOC`` (``5``): :ref:`Python pymalloc memory
allocator <pymalloc>`.
* ``PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_PYMALLOC_DEBUG`` (``6``): :ref:`Python pymalloc
memory allocator <pymalloc>` with :ref:`debug hooks
<pymem-debug-hooks>`.
``PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_PYMALLOC`` and ``PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_PYMALLOC_DEBUG`` are
not supported if Python is :option:`configured using --without-pymalloc
<--without-pymalloc>`.
See :ref:`Memory Management <memory>`.
Default: ``PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_NOT_SET``.
.. c:member:: int configure_locale
Set the LC_CTYPE locale to the user preferred locale?
If equals to ``0``, set :c:member:`~PyPreConfig.coerce_c_locale` and
:c:member:`~PyPreConfig.coerce_c_locale_warn` members to ``0``.
See the :term:`locale encoding`.
Default: ``1`` in Python config, ``0`` in isolated config.
.. c:member:: int coerce_c_locale
If equals to ``2``, coerce the C locale.
If equals to ``1``, read the LC_CTYPE locale to decide if it should be
coerced.
See the :term:`locale encoding`.
Default: ``-1`` in Python config, ``0`` in isolated config.
.. c:member:: int coerce_c_locale_warn
If non-zero, emit a warning if the C locale is coerced.
Default: ``-1`` in Python config, ``0`` in isolated config.
.. c:member:: int dev_mode
:ref:`Python Development Mode <devmode>`: see
:c:member:`PyConfig.dev_mode`.
Default: ``-1`` in Python mode, ``0`` in isolated mode.
.. c:member:: int isolated
Isolated mode: see :c:member:`PyConfig.isolated`.
Default: ``0`` in Python mode, ``1`` in isolated mode.
.. c:member:: int legacy_windows_fs_encoding
If non-zero:
* Set :c:member:`PyPreConfig.utf8_mode` to ``0``,
* Set :c:member:`PyConfig.filesystem_encoding` to ``"mbcs"``,
* Set :c:member:`PyConfig.filesystem_errors` to ``"replace"``.
Initialized the from :envvar:`PYTHONLEGACYWINDOWSFSENCODING` environment
variable value.
Only available on Windows. ``#ifdef MS_WINDOWS`` macro can be used for
Windows specific code.
Default: ``0``.
.. c:member:: int parse_argv
If non-zero, :c:func:`Py_PreInitializeFromArgs` and
:c:func:`Py_PreInitializeFromBytesArgs` parse their ``argv`` argument the
same way the regular Python parses command line arguments: see
:ref:`Command Line Arguments <using-on-cmdline>`.
Default: ``1`` in Python config, ``0`` in isolated config.
.. c:member:: int use_environment
Use :ref:`environment variables <using-on-envvars>`? See
:c:member:`PyConfig.use_environment`.
Default: ``1`` in Python config and ``0`` in isolated config.
.. c:member:: int utf8_mode
If non-zero, enable the :ref:`Python UTF-8 Mode <utf8-mode>`.
Set to ``0`` or ``1`` by the :option:`-X utf8 <-X>` command line option
and the :envvar:`PYTHONUTF8` environment variable.
Also set to ``1`` if the ``LC_CTYPE`` locale is ``C`` or ``POSIX``.
Default: ``-1`` in Python config and ``0`` in isolated config.
.. _c-preinit:
Preinitialize Python with PyPreConfig
=====================================
The preinitialization of Python:
* Set the Python memory allocators (:c:member:`PyPreConfig.allocator`)
* Configure the LC_CTYPE locale (:term:`locale encoding`)
* Set the :ref:`Python UTF-8 Mode <utf8-mode>`
(:c:member:`PyPreConfig.utf8_mode`)
The current preconfiguration (``PyPreConfig`` type) is stored in
``_PyRuntime.preconfig``.
Functions to preinitialize Python:
.. c:function:: PyStatus Py_PreInitialize(const PyPreConfig *preconfig)
Preinitialize Python from *preconfig* preconfiguration.
*preconfig* must not be ``NULL``.
.. c:function:: PyStatus Py_PreInitializeFromBytesArgs(const PyPreConfig *preconfig, int argc, char * const *argv)
Preinitialize Python from *preconfig* preconfiguration.
Parse *argv* command line arguments (bytes strings) if
:c:member:`~PyPreConfig.parse_argv` of *preconfig* is non-zero.
*preconfig* must not be ``NULL``.
.. c:function:: PyStatus Py_PreInitializeFromArgs(const PyPreConfig *preconfig, int argc, wchar_t * const * argv)
Preinitialize Python from *preconfig* preconfiguration.
Parse *argv* command line arguments (wide strings) if
:c:member:`~PyPreConfig.parse_argv` of *preconfig* is non-zero.
*preconfig* must not be ``NULL``.
The caller is responsible to handle exceptions (error or exit) using
:c:func:`PyStatus_Exception` and :c:func:`Py_ExitStatusException`.
For :ref:`Python Configuration <init-python-config>`
(:c:func:`PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig`), if Python is initialized with
command line arguments, the command line arguments must also be passed to
preinitialize Python, since they have an effect on the pre-configuration
like encodings. For example, the :option:`-X utf8 <-X>` command line option
enables the :ref:`Python UTF-8 Mode <utf8-mode>`.
``PyMem_SetAllocator()`` can be called after :c:func:`Py_PreInitialize` and
before :c:func:`Py_InitializeFromConfig` to install a custom memory allocator.
It can be called before :c:func:`Py_PreInitialize` if
:c:member:`PyPreConfig.allocator` is set to ``PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_NOT_SET``.
Python memory allocation functions like :c:func:`PyMem_RawMalloc` must not be
used before the Python preinitialization, whereas calling directly ``malloc()``
and ``free()`` is always safe. :c:func:`Py_DecodeLocale` must not be called
before the Python preinitialization.
Example using the preinitialization to enable
the :ref:`Python UTF-8 Mode <utf8-mode>`::
PyStatus status;
PyPreConfig preconfig;
PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig(&preconfig);
preconfig.utf8_mode = 1;
status = Py_PreInitialize(&preconfig);
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
Py_ExitStatusException(status);
}
/* at this point, Python speaks UTF-8 */
Py_Initialize();
/* ... use Python API here ... */
Py_Finalize();
PyConfig
========
.. c:type:: PyConfig
Structure containing most parameters to configure Python.
When done, the :c:func:`PyConfig_Clear` function must be used to release the
configuration memory.
Structure methods:
.. c:function:: void PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(PyConfig *config)
Initialize configuration with the :ref:`Python Configuration
<init-python-config>`.
.. c:function:: void PyConfig_InitIsolatedConfig(PyConfig *config)
Initialize configuration with the :ref:`Isolated Configuration
<init-isolated-conf>`.
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyConfig_SetString(PyConfig *config, wchar_t * const *config_str, const wchar_t *str)
Copy the wide character string *str* into ``*config_str``.
:ref:`Preinitialize Python <c-preinit>` if needed.
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyConfig_SetBytesString(PyConfig *config, wchar_t * const *config_str, const char *str)
Decode *str* using :c:func:`Py_DecodeLocale` and set the result into
``*config_str``.
:ref:`Preinitialize Python <c-preinit>` if needed.
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyConfig_SetArgv(PyConfig *config, int argc, wchar_t * const *argv)
Set command line arguments (:c:member:`~PyConfig.argv` member of
*config*) from the *argv* list of wide character strings.
:ref:`Preinitialize Python <c-preinit>` if needed.
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyConfig_SetBytesArgv(PyConfig *config, int argc, char * const *argv)
Set command line arguments (:c:member:`~PyConfig.argv` member of
*config*) from the *argv* list of bytes strings. Decode bytes using
:c:func:`Py_DecodeLocale`.
:ref:`Preinitialize Python <c-preinit>` if needed.
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyConfig_SetWideStringList(PyConfig *config, PyWideStringList *list, Py_ssize_t length, wchar_t **items)
Set the list of wide strings *list* to *length* and *items*.
:ref:`Preinitialize Python <c-preinit>` if needed.
.. c:function:: PyStatus PyConfig_Read(PyConfig *config)
Read all Python configuration.
Fields which are already initialized are left unchanged.
Fields for :ref:`path configuration <init-path-config>` are no longer
calculated or modified when calling this function, as of Python 3.11.
The :c:func:`PyConfig_Read` function only parses
:c:member:`PyConfig.argv` arguments once: :c:member:`PyConfig.parse_argv`
is set to ``2`` after arguments are parsed. Since Python arguments are
strippped from :c:member:`PyConfig.argv`, parsing arguments twice would
parse the application options as Python options.
:ref:`Preinitialize Python <c-preinit>` if needed.
.. versionchanged:: 3.10
The :c:member:`PyConfig.argv` arguments are now only parsed once,
:c:member:`PyConfig.parse_argv` is set to ``2`` after arguments are
parsed, and arguments are only parsed if
:c:member:`PyConfig.parse_argv` equals ``1``.
.. versionchanged:: 3.11
:c:func:`PyConfig_Read` no longer calculates all paths, and so fields
listed under :ref:`Python Path Configuration <init-path-config>` may
no longer be updated until :c:func:`Py_InitializeFromConfig` is
called.
.. c:function:: void PyConfig_Clear(PyConfig *config)
Release configuration memory.
Most ``PyConfig`` methods :ref:`preinitialize Python <c-preinit>` if needed.
In that case, the Python preinitialization configuration
(:c:type:`PyPreConfig`) in based on the :c:type:`PyConfig`. If configuration
fields which are in common with :c:type:`PyPreConfig` are tuned, they must
be set before calling a :c:type:`PyConfig` method:
* :c:member:`PyConfig.dev_mode`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.isolated`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.parse_argv`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.use_environment`
Moreover, if :c:func:`PyConfig_SetArgv` or :c:func:`PyConfig_SetBytesArgv`
is used, this method must be called before other methods, since the
preinitialization configuration depends on command line arguments (if
:c:member:`parse_argv` is non-zero).
The caller of these methods is responsible to handle exceptions (error or
exit) using ``PyStatus_Exception()`` and ``Py_ExitStatusException()``.
Structure fields:
.. c:member:: PyWideStringList argv
Command line arguments: :data:`sys.argv`.
Set :c:member:`~PyConfig.parse_argv` to ``1`` to parse
:c:member:`~PyConfig.argv` the same way the regular Python parses Python
command line arguments and then to strip Python arguments from
:c:member:`~PyConfig.argv`.
If :c:member:`~PyConfig.argv` is empty, an empty string is added to
ensure that :data:`sys.argv` always exists and is never empty.
Default: ``NULL``.
See also the :c:member:`~PyConfig.orig_argv` member.
.. c:member:: int safe_path
If equals to zero, ``Py_RunMain()`` prepends a potentially unsafe path to
:data:`sys.path` at startup:
* If :c:member:`argv[0] <PyConfig.argv>` is equal to ``L"-m"``
(``python -m module``), prepend the current working directory.
* If running a script (``python script.py``), prepend the script's
directory. If it's a symbolic link, resolve symbolic links.
* Otherwise (``python -c code`` and ``python``), prepend an empty string,
which means the current working directory.
Set to ``1`` by the :option:`-P` command line option and the
:envvar:`PYTHONSAFEPATH` environment variable.
Default: ``0`` in Python config, ``1`` in isolated config.
.. versionadded:: 3.11

:envvar:`PYTHONUNBUFFERED` environment variable.
stdin is always opened in buffered mode.
Default: ``1``.
.. c:member:: int bytes_warning
If equals to ``1``, issue a warning when comparing :class:`bytes` or
:class:`bytearray` with :class:`str`, or comparing :class:`bytes` with

cases.
Incremented by the :option:`-b` command line option.
Default: ``0``.
.. c:member:: int warn_default_encoding
If non-zero, emit a :exc:`EncodingWarning` warning when :class:`io.TextIOWrapper`
uses its default encoding. See :ref:`io-encoding-warning` for details.
Default: ``0``.
.. versionadded:: 3.10
.. c:member:: int code_debug_ranges
If equals to ``0``, disables the inclusion of the end line and column
mappings in code objects. Also disables traceback printing carets to
specific error locations.
Set to ``0`` by the :envvar:`PYTHONNODEBUGRANGES` environment variable
and by the :option:`-X no_debug_ranges <-X>` command line option.
Default: ``1``.
.. versionadded:: 3.11
.. c:member:: wchar_t* check_hash_pycs_mode
Control the validation behavior of hash-based ``.pyc`` files:
value of the :option:`--check-hash-based-pycs` command line option.
Valid values:
- ``L"always"``: Hash the source file for invalidation regardless of
value of the 'check_source' flag.
- ``L"never"``: Assume that hash-based pycs always are valid.
- ``L"default"``: The 'check_source' flag in hash-based pycs
determines invalidation.
Default: ``L"default"``.
See also :pep:`552` "Deterministic pycs".
.. c:member:: int configure_c_stdio
If non-zero, configure C standard streams:
* On Windows, set the binary mode (``O_BINARY``) on stdin, stdout and
stderr.
* If :c:member:`~PyConfig.buffered_stdio` equals zero, disable buffering

Need a special build of Python with the ``Py_TRACE_REFS`` macro defined:
see the :option:`configure --with-trace-refs option <--with-trace-refs>`.
Default: ``0``.
.. c:member:: wchar_t* exec_prefix

Default: ``-1`` in Python mode, ``0`` in isolated mode.
.. c:member:: wchar_t* filesystem_encoding
:term:`Filesystem encoding <filesystem encoding and error handler>`:
:func:`sys.getfilesystemencoding`.
On macOS, Android and VxWorks: use ``"utf-8"`` by default.
On Windows: use ``"utf-8"`` by default, or ``"mbcs"`` if
:c:member:`~PyPreConfig.legacy_windows_fs_encoding` of
:c:type:`PyPreConfig` is non-zero.
Default encoding on other platforms:
* ``"utf-8"`` if :c:member:`PyPreConfig.utf8_mode` is non-zero.
* ``"ascii"`` if Python detects that ``nl_langinfo(CODESET)`` announces
the ASCII encoding (or Roman8 encoding on HP-UX), whereas the
``mbstowcs()`` function decodes from a different encoding (usually
Latin1).
* ``"utf-8"`` if ``nl_langinfo(CODESET)`` returns an empty string.
* Otherwise, use the :term:`locale encoding`:
``nl_langinfo(CODESET)`` result.
At Python startup, the encoding name is normalized to the Python codec
name. For example, ``"ANSI_X3.4-1968"`` is replaced with ``"ascii"``.
See also the :c:member:`~PyConfig.filesystem_errors` member.
.. c:member:: wchar_t* filesystem_errors
:term:`Filesystem error handler <filesystem encoding and error handler>`:
:func:`sys.getfilesystemencodeerrors`.
On Windows: use ``"surrogatepass"`` by default, or ``"replace"`` if

Default: ``1`` in Python mode, ``0`` in isolated mode.
.. c:member:: int interactive
If greater than ``0``, enable the interactive mode (REPL).
Incremented by the :option:`-i` command line option.
Default: ``0``.
.. c:member:: int isolated
If greater than ``0``, enable isolated mode:
* Set :c:member:`~PyConfig.safe_path` to ``1``:
don't prepend a potentially unsafe path to :data:`sys.path` at Python
startup, such as the current directory, the script's directory or an
empty string.

Default: ``0`` in Python mode, ``1`` in isolated mode.
See also the :ref:`Isolated Configuration <init-isolated-conf>` and
:c:member:`PyPreConfig.isolated`.
.. c:member:: int legacy_windows_stdio

for compatibility, note that this value is ignored for any
non-standard layouts, including in-tree builds and virtual
environments.
.. c:member:: wchar_t* pythonpath_env
Module search paths (:data:`sys.path`) as a string separated by ``DELIM``
(:data:`os.path.pathsep`).
Set by the :envvar:`PYTHONPATH` environment variable.
Default: ``NULL``.
Part of the :ref:`Python Path Configuration <init-path-config>` input.
.. c:member:: PyWideStringList module_search_paths
.. c:member:: int module_search_paths_set
Module search paths: :data:`sys.path`.
If :c:member:`~PyConfig.module_search_paths_set` is equal to ``0``,
:c:func:`Py_InitializeFromConfig` will replace
:c:member:`~PyConfig.module_search_paths` and sets
:c:member:`~PyConfig.module_search_paths_set` to ``1``.
Default: empty list (``module_search_paths``) and ``0``
(``module_search_paths_set``).
Part of the :ref:`Python Path Configuration <init-path-config>` output.
.. c:member:: int optimization_level
Compilation optimization level:
* ``0``: Peephole optimizer, set ``__debug__`` to ``True``.
* ``1``: Level 0, remove assertions, set ``__debug__`` to ``False``.
* ``2``: Level 1, strip docstrings.
Incremented by the :option:`-O` command line option. Set to the
:envvar:`PYTHONOPTIMIZE` environment variable value.
Default: ``0``.
.. c:member:: PyWideStringList orig_argv
The list of the original command line arguments passed to the Python
executable: :data:`sys.orig_argv`.
If :c:member:`~PyConfig.orig_argv` list is empty and
:c:member:`~PyConfig.argv` is not a list only containing an empty
string, :c:func:`PyConfig_Read` copies :c:member:`~PyConfig.argv` into
:c:member:`~PyConfig.orig_argv` before modifying
:c:member:`~PyConfig.argv` (if :c:member:`~PyConfig.parse_argv` is
non-zero).
See also the :c:member:`~PyConfig.argv` member and the
:c:func:`Py_GetArgcArgv` function.
Default: empty list.
.. versionadded:: 3.10
.. c:member:: int parse_argv
Parse command line arguments?
If equals to ``1``, parse :c:member:`~PyConfig.argv` the same way the regular
Python parses :ref:`command line arguments <using-on-cmdline>`, and strip
Python arguments from :c:member:`~PyConfig.argv`.
The :c:func:`PyConfig_Read` function only parses
:c:member:`PyConfig.argv` arguments once: :c:member:`PyConfig.parse_argv`
is set to ``2`` after arguments are parsed. Since Python arguments are
strippped from :c:member:`PyConfig.argv`, parsing arguments twice would
parse the application options as Python options.
Default: ``1`` in Python mode, ``0`` in isolated mode.
.. versionchanged:: 3.10
The :c:member:`PyConfig.argv` arguments are now only parsed if
:c:member:`PyConfig.parse_argv` equals to ``1``.
.. c:member:: int parser_debug
Parser debug mode. If greater than ``0``, turn on parser debugging output (for expert only, depending
on compilation options).
Incremented by the :option:`-d` command line option. Set to the
:envvar:`PYTHONDEBUG` environment variable value.
Need a :ref:`debug build of Python <debug-build>` (the ``Py_DEBUG`` macro
must be defined).
Default: ``0``.

If non-zero, calculation of path configuration is allowed to log
warnings into ``stderr``. If equals to ``0``, suppress these warnings.
Default: ``1`` in Python mode, ``0`` in isolated mode.
Part of the :ref:`Python Path Configuration <init-path-config>` input.
.. versionchanged:: 3.11
Now also applies on Windows.
.. c:member:: wchar_t* prefix
The site-specific directory prefix where the platform independent Python
files are installed: :data:`sys.prefix`.
Default: ``NULL``.
Part of the :ref:`Python Path Configuration <init-path-config>` output.
.. c:member:: wchar_t* program_name
Program name used to initialize :c:member:`~PyConfig.executable` and in
early error messages during Python initialization.
* If :func:`Py_SetProgramName` has been called, use its argument.
* On macOS, use :envvar:`PYTHONEXECUTABLE` environment variable if set.
* If the ``WITH_NEXT_FRAMEWORK`` macro is defined, use
:envvar:`__PYVENV_LAUNCHER__` environment variable if set.
* Use ``argv[0]`` of :c:member:`~PyConfig.argv` if available and
non-empty.
* Otherwise, use ``L"python"`` on Windows, or ``L"python3"`` on other
platforms.
Default: ``NULL``.
Part of the :ref:`Python Path Configuration <init-path-config>` input.
.. c:member:: wchar_t* pycache_prefix
Directory where cached ``.pyc`` files are written:
:data:`sys.pycache_prefix`.
Set by the :option:`-X pycache_prefix=PATH <-X>` command line option and
the :envvar:`PYTHONPYCACHEPREFIX` environment variable.
If ``NULL``, :data:`sys.pycache_prefix` is set to ``None``.
Default: ``NULL``.
.. c:member:: int quiet
Quiet mode. If greater than ``0``, don't display the copyright and version at
Python startup in interactive mode.
Incremented by the :option:`-q` command line option.
Default: ``0``.
.. c:member:: wchar_t* run_command

Used by :c:func:`Py_RunMain`.
Default: ``NULL``.
.. c:member:: wchar_t* run_filename
Filename passed on the command line: trailing command line argument
without :option:`-c` or :option:`-m`. It is used by the
:c:func:`Py_RunMain` function.
For example, it is set to ``script.py`` by the ``python3 script.py arg``
command line.
See also the :c:member:`PyConfig.skip_source_first_line` option.
Default: ``NULL``.
.. c:member:: wchar_t* run_module
Value of the :option:`-m` command line option.
Used by :c:func:`Py_RunMain`.
Default: ``NULL``.
.. c:member:: int show_ref_count
Show total reference count at exit?
Set to ``1`` by :option:`-X showrefcount <-X>` command line option.
Need a :ref:`debug build of Python <debug-build>` (the ``Py_REF_DEBUG``
macro must be defined).
Default: ``0``.
.. c:member:: int site_import
Import the :mod:`site` module at startup?
If equal to zero, disable the import of the module site and the
site-dependent manipulations of :data:`sys.path` that it entails.
Also disable these manipulations if the :mod:`site` module is explicitly
imported later (call :func:`site.main` if you want them to be triggered).
Set to ``0`` by the :option:`-S` command line option.
:data:`sys.flags.no_site` is set to the inverted value of
:c:member:`~PyConfig.site_import`.
Default: ``1``.
.. c:member:: int skip_source_first_line
If non-zero, skip the first line of the :c:member:`PyConfig.run_filename`
source.
It allows the usage of non-Unix forms of ``#!cmd``. This is intended for
a DOS specific hack only.
Set to ``1`` by the :option:`-x` command line option.
Default: ``0``.
.. c:member:: wchar_t* stdio_encoding
.. c:member:: wchar_t* stdio_errors
Encoding and encoding errors of :data:`sys.stdin`, :data:`sys.stdout` and
:data:`sys.stderr` (but :data:`sys.stderr` always uses
``"backslashreplace"`` error handler).
If :c:func:`Py_SetStandardStreamEncoding` has been called, use its
*error* and *errors* arguments if they are not ``NULL``.
Use the :envvar:`PYTHONIOENCODING` environment variable if it is
non-empty.
Default encoding:
* ``"UTF-8"`` if :c:member:`PyPreConfig.utf8_mode` is non-zero.
* Otherwise, use the :term:`locale encoding`.
Default error handler:
* On Windows: use ``"surrogateescape"``.
* ``"surrogateescape"`` if :c:member:`PyPreConfig.utf8_mode` is non-zero,
or if the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" or "POSIX".
* ``"strict"`` otherwise.
.. c:member:: int tracemalloc
Enable tracemalloc?
If non-zero, call :func:`tracemalloc.start` at startup.
Set by :option:`-X tracemalloc=N <-X>` command line option and by the
:envvar:`PYTHONTRACEMALLOC` environment variable.

Set to ``0`` by the :envvar:`PYTHONNOUSERSITE` environment variable.
Default: ``1`` in Python mode, ``0`` in isolated mode.
.. c:member:: int verbose
Verbose mode. If greater than ``0``, print a message each time a module is
imported, showing the place (filename or built-in module) from which
it is loaded.
If greater than or equal to ``2``, print a message for each file that is
checked for when searching for a module. Also provides information on
module cleanup at exit.
Incremented by the :option:`-v` command line option.
Set by the :envvar:`PYTHONVERBOSE` environment variable value.
Default: ``0``.
.. c:member:: PyWideStringList warnoptions
Options of the :mod:`warnings` module to build warnings filters, lowest
to highest priority: :data:`sys.warnoptions`.
The :mod:`warnings` module adds :data:`sys.warnoptions` in the reverse
order: the last :c:member:`PyConfig.warnoptions` item becomes the first
item of :data:`warnings.filters` which is checked first (highest
priority).
The :option:`-W` command line options adds its value to
:c:member:`~PyConfig.warnoptions`, it can be used multiple times.
The :envvar:`PYTHONWARNINGS` environment variable can also be used to add
warning options. Multiple options can be specified, separated by commas
(``,``).
Default: empty list.
.. c:member:: int write_bytecode

arguments are parsed the same way the regular Python parses :ref:`command line
arguments <using-on-cmdline>`, and Python arguments are stripped from
:c:member:`~PyConfig.argv`.
The :c:member:`~PyConfig.xoptions` options are parsed to set other options: see
the :option:`-X` command line option.
.. versionchanged:: 3.9
The ``show_alloc_count`` field has been removed.
Initialization with PyConfig
============================
Function to initialize Python:
.. c:function:: PyStatus Py_InitializeFromConfig(const PyConfig *config)
Initialize Python from *config* configuration.
The caller is responsible to handle exceptions (error or exit) using
:c:func:`PyStatus_Exception` and :c:func:`Py_ExitStatusException`.
If :c:func:`PyImport_FrozenModules`, :c:func:`PyImport_AppendInittab` or
:c:func:`PyImport_ExtendInittab` are used, they must be set or called after
Python preinitialization and before the Python initialization. If Python is
initialized multiple times, :c:func:`PyImport_AppendInittab` or
:c:func:`PyImport_ExtendInittab` must be called before each Python
initialization.
The current configuration (``PyConfig`` type) is stored in
``PyInterpreterState.config``.
Example setting the program name::
void init_python(void)
{
PyStatus status;
PyConfig config;
PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);
/* Set the program name. Implicitly preinitialize Python. */
status = PyConfig_SetString(&config, &config.program_name,
L"/path/to/my_program");
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
goto exception;
}
status = Py_InitializeFromConfig(&config);
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
goto exception;
}
PyConfig_Clear(&config);
return;
exception:
PyConfig_Clear(&config);
Py_ExitStatusException(status);
}
More complete example modifying the default configuration, read the
configuration, and then override some parameters. Note that since
3.11, many parameters are not calculated until initialization, and
so values cannot be read from the configuration structure. Any values
set before initialize is called will be left unchanged by
initialization::
PyStatus init_python(const char *program_name)
{
PyStatus status;
PyConfig config;
PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);
/* Set the program name before reading the configuration
(decode byte string from the locale encoding).
Implicitly preinitialize Python. */
status = PyConfig_SetBytesString(&config, &config.program_name,
program_name);
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
goto done;
}
/* Read all configuration at once */
status = PyConfig_Read(&config);
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
goto done;
}
/* Specify sys.path explicitly */
/* If you want to modify the default set of paths, finish
initialization first and then use PySys_GetObject("path") */
config.module_search_paths_set = 1;
status = PyWideStringList_Append(&config.module_search_paths,
L"/path/to/stdlib");
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
goto done;
}
status = PyWideStringList_Append(&config.module_search_paths,
L"/path/to/more/modules");
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
goto done;
}
/* Override executable computed by PyConfig_Read() */
status = PyConfig_SetString(&config, &config.executable,
L"/path/to/my_executable");
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
goto done;
}
status = Py_InitializeFromConfig(&config);
done:
PyConfig_Clear(&config);
return status;
}
.. _init-isolated-conf:
Isolated Configuration
======================
:c:func:`PyPreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig` and
:c:func:`PyConfig_InitIsolatedConfig` functions create a configuration to
isolate Python from the system. For example, to embed Python into an
application.
This configuration ignores global configuration variables, environment
variables, command line arguments (:c:member:`PyConfig.argv` is not parsed)
and user site directory. The C standard streams (ex: ``stdout``) and the
LC_CTYPE locale are left unchanged. Signal handlers are not installed.
Configuration files are still used with this configuration to determine
paths that are unspecified. Ensure :c:member:`PyConfig.home` is specified
to avoid computing the default path configuration.
.. _init-python-config:
Python Configuration
====================
:c:func:`PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig` and :c:func:`PyConfig_InitPythonConfig`
functions create a configuration to build a customized Python which behaves as
the regular Python.
Environments variables and command line arguments are used to configure
Python, whereas global configuration variables are ignored.
This function enables C locale coercion (:pep:`538`)
and :ref:`Python UTF-8 Mode <utf8-mode>`
(:pep:`540`) depending on the LC_CTYPE locale, :envvar:`PYTHONUTF8` and
:envvar:`PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE` environment variables.
.. _init-path-config:
Python Path Configuration
=========================
:c:type:`PyConfig` contains multiple fields for the path configuration:
* Path configuration inputs:
* :c:member:`PyConfig.home`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.platlibdir`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.pathconfig_warnings`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.program_name`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.pythonpath_env`
* current working directory: to get absolute paths
* ``PATH`` environment variable to get the program full path
(from :c:member:`PyConfig.program_name`)
* ``__PYVENV_LAUNCHER__`` environment variable
* (Windows only) Application paths in the registry under
"Software\Python\PythonCore\X.Y\PythonPath" of HKEY_CURRENT_USER and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (where X.Y is the Python version).
* Path configuration output fields:
* :c:member:`PyConfig.base_exec_prefix`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.base_executable`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.base_prefix`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.exec_prefix`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.executable`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.module_search_paths_set`,
:c:member:`PyConfig.module_search_paths`
* :c:member:`PyConfig.prefix`
If at least one "output field" is not set, Python calculates the path
configuration to fill unset fields. If
:c:member:`~PyConfig.module_search_paths_set` is equal to ``0``,
:c:member:`~PyConfig.module_search_paths` is overridden and
:c:member:`~PyConfig.module_search_paths_set` is set to ``1``.
It is possible to completely ignore the function calculating the default
path configuration by setting explicitly all path configuration output
fields listed above. A string is considered as set even if it is non-empty.
``module_search_paths`` is considered as set if
``module_search_paths_set`` is set to ``1``. In this case,
``module_search_paths`` will be used without modification.
Set :c:member:`~PyConfig.pathconfig_warnings` to ``0`` to suppress warnings when
calculating the path configuration (Unix only, Windows does not log any warning).
If :c:member:`~PyConfig.base_prefix` or :c:member:`~PyConfig.base_exec_prefix`
fields are not set, they inherit their value from :c:member:`~PyConfig.prefix`
and :c:member:`~PyConfig.exec_prefix` respectively.
:c:func:`Py_RunMain` and :c:func:`Py_Main` modify :data:`sys.path`:
* If :c:member:`~PyConfig.run_filename` is set and is a directory which contains a
``__main__.py`` script, prepend :c:member:`~PyConfig.run_filename` to
:data:`sys.path`.
* If :c:member:`~PyConfig.isolated` is zero:
* If :c:member:`~PyConfig.run_module` is set, prepend the current directory
to :data:`sys.path`. Do nothing if the current directory cannot be read.
* If :c:member:`~PyConfig.run_filename` is set, prepend the directory of the
filename to :data:`sys.path`.
* Otherwise, prepend an empty string to :data:`sys.path`.
If :c:member:`~PyConfig.site_import` is non-zero, :data:`sys.path` can be
modified by the :mod:`site` module. If
:c:member:`~PyConfig.user_site_directory` is non-zero and the user's
site-package directory exists, the :mod:`site` module appends the user's
site-package directory to :data:`sys.path`.
The following configuration files are used by the path configuration:
* ``pyvenv.cfg``
* ``._pth`` file (ex: ``python._pth``)
* ``pybuilddir.txt`` (Unix only)
If a ``._pth`` file is present:
* Set :c:member:`~PyConfig.isolated` to ``1``.
* Set :c:member:`~PyConfig.use_environment` to ``0``.
* Set :c:member:`~PyConfig.site_import` to ``0``.
* Set :c:member:`~PyConfig.safe_path` to ``1``.
The ``__PYVENV_LAUNCHER__`` environment variable is used to set
:c:member:`PyConfig.base_executable`
Py_RunMain()
============
.. c:function:: int Py_RunMain(void)
Execute the command (:c:member:`PyConfig.run_command`), the script
(:c:member:`PyConfig.run_filename`) or the module
(:c:member:`PyConfig.run_module`) specified on the command line or in the
configuration.
By default and when if :option:`-i` option is used, run the REPL.
Finally, finalizes Python and returns an exit status that can be passed to
the ``exit()`` function.
See :ref:`Python Configuration <init-python-config>` for an example of
customized Python always running in isolated mode using
:c:func:`Py_RunMain`.
Py_GetArgcArgv()
================
.. c:function:: void Py_GetArgcArgv(int *argc, wchar_t ***argv)
Get the original command line arguments, before Python modified them.
See also :c:member:`PyConfig.orig_argv` member.
Multi-Phase Initialization Private Provisional API
==================================================
This section is a private provisional API introducing multi-phase
initialization, the core feature of :pep:`432`:
* "Core" initialization phase, "bare minimum Python":
* Builtin types;
* Builtin exceptions;
* Builtin and frozen modules;
* The :mod:`sys` module is only partially initialized
(ex: :data:`sys.path` doesn't exist yet).
* "Main" initialization phase, Python is fully initialized:
* Install and configure :mod:`importlib`;
* Apply the :ref:`Path Configuration <init-path-config>`;
* Install signal handlers;
* Finish :mod:`sys` module initialization (ex: create :data:`sys.stdout`
and :data:`sys.path`);
* Enable optional features like :mod:`faulthandler` and :mod:`tracemalloc`;
* Import the :mod:`site` module;
* etc.
Private provisional API:
* :c:member:`PyConfig._init_main`: if set to ``0``,
:c:func:`Py_InitializeFromConfig` stops at the "Core" initialization phase.
* :c:member:`PyConfig._isolated_interpreter`: if non-zero,
disallow threads, subprocesses and fork.
.. c:function:: PyStatus _Py_InitializeMain(void)
Move to the "Main" initialization phase, finish the Python initialization.
No module is imported during the "Core" phase and the ``importlib`` module is
not configured: the :ref:`Path Configuration <init-path-config>` is only
applied during the "Main" phase. It may allow to customize Python in Python to
override or tune the :ref:`Path Configuration <init-path-config>`, maybe
install a custom :data:`sys.meta_path` importer or an import hook, etc.
It may become possible to calculatin the :ref:`Path Configuration
<init-path-config>` in Python, after the Core phase and before the Main phase,
which is one of the :pep:`432` motivation.
The "Core" phase is not properly defined: what should be and what should
not be available at this phase is not specified yet. The API is marked
as private and provisional: the API can be modified or even be removed
anytime until a proper public API is designed.
Example running Python code between "Core" and "Main" initialization
phases::
void init_python(void)
{
PyStatus status;
PyConfig config;
PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);
config._init_main = 0;
/* ... customize 'config' configuration ... */
status = Py_InitializeFromConfig(&config);
PyConfig_Clear(&config);
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
Py_ExitStatusException(status);
}
/* Use sys.stderr because sys.stdout is only created
by _Py_InitializeMain() */
int res = PyRun_SimpleString(
"import sys; "
"print('Run Python code before _Py_InitializeMain', "
"file=sys.stderr)");
if (res < 0) {
exit(1);
}
/* ... put more configuration code here ... */
status = _Py_InitializeMain();
if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
Py_ExitStatusException(status);
}
}
