Struct PyErr

Source
pub struct PyErr { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

Represents a Python exception.

To avoid needing access to Python in Into conversions to create PyErr (thus improving compatibility with ? and other Rust errors) this type supports creating exceptions instances in a lazy fashion, where the full Python object for the exception is created only when needed.

Accessing the contained exception in any way, such as with value_bound, get_type_bound, or is_instance_bound will create the full exception object if it was not already created.

Implementations§

Source§

impl PyErr

Source

pub fn new<T, A>(args: A) -> PyErr
where T: PyTypeInfo, A: PyErrArguments + Send + Sync + 'static,

Creates a new PyErr of type T.

args can be:

  • a tuple: the exception instance will be created using the equivalent to the Python expression T(*tuple)
  • any other value: the exception instance will be created using the equivalent to the Python expression T(value)

This exception instance will be initialized lazily. This avoids the need for the Python GIL to be held, but requires args to be Send and Sync. If args is not Send or Sync, consider using PyErr::from_value_bound instead.

If T does not inherit from BaseException, then a TypeError will be returned.

If calling T’s constructor with args raises an exception, that exception will be returned.

§Examples
use pyo3::prelude::*;
use pyo3::exceptions::PyTypeError;

#[pyfunction]
fn always_throws() -> PyResult<()> {
    Err(PyErr::new::<PyTypeError, _>("Error message"))
}

In most cases, you can use a concrete exception’s constructor instead:

use pyo3::prelude::*;
use pyo3::exceptions::PyTypeError;

#[pyfunction]
fn always_throws() -> PyResult<()> {
    Err(PyTypeError::new_err("Error message"))
}
Source

pub fn from_type_bound<A>(ty: Bound<'_, PyType>, args: A) -> PyErr
where A: PyErrArguments + Send + Sync + 'static,

Constructs a new PyErr from the given Python type and arguments.

ty is the exception type; usually one of the standard exceptions like exceptions::PyRuntimeError.

args is either a tuple or a single value, with the same meaning as in PyErr::new.

If ty does not inherit from BaseException, then a TypeError will be returned.

If calling ty with args raises an exception, that exception will be returned.

Source

pub fn from_value_bound(obj: Bound<'_, PyAny>) -> PyErr

Creates a new PyErr.

If obj is a Python exception object, the PyErr will contain that object.

If obj is a Python exception type object, this is equivalent to PyErr::from_type(obj, ()).

Otherwise, a TypeError is created.

§Examples
use pyo3::prelude::*;
use pyo3::PyTypeInfo;
use pyo3::exceptions::PyTypeError;
use pyo3::types::PyString;

Python::with_gil(|py| {
    // Case #1: Exception object
    let err = PyErr::from_value_bound(PyTypeError::new_err("some type error")
        .value_bound(py).clone().into_any());
    assert_eq!(err.to_string(), "TypeError: some type error");

    // Case #2: Exception type
    let err = PyErr::from_value_bound(PyTypeError::type_object_bound(py).into_any());
    assert_eq!(err.to_string(), "TypeError: ");

    // Case #3: Invalid exception value
    let err = PyErr::from_value_bound(PyString::new_bound(py, "foo").into_any());
    assert_eq!(
        err.to_string(),
        "TypeError: exceptions must derive from BaseException"
    );
});
Source

pub fn get_type_bound<'py>(&self, py: Python<'py>) -> Bound<'py, PyType>

Returns the type of this exception.

§Examples
use pyo3::{prelude::*, exceptions::PyTypeError, types::PyType};

Python::with_gil(|py| {
    let err: PyErr = PyTypeError::new_err(("some type error",));
    assert!(err.get_type_bound(py).is(&PyType::new_bound::<PyTypeError>(py)));
});
Source

pub fn value_bound<'py>(&self, py: Python<'py>) -> &Bound<'py, PyBaseException>

Returns the value of this exception.

§Examples
use pyo3::{exceptions::PyTypeError, PyErr, Python};

Python::with_gil(|py| {
    let err: PyErr = PyTypeError::new_err(("some type error",));
    assert!(err.is_instance_of::<PyTypeError>(py));
    assert_eq!(err.value_bound(py).to_string(), "some type error");
});
Source

pub fn into_value(self, py: Python<'_>) -> Py<PyBaseException>

Consumes self to take ownership of the exception value contained in this error.

Source

pub fn traceback_bound<'py>( &self, py: Python<'py>, ) -> Option<Bound<'py, PyTraceback>>

Returns the traceback of this exception object.

§Examples
use pyo3::{exceptions::PyTypeError, Python};

Python::with_gil(|py| {
    let err = PyTypeError::new_err(("some type error",));
    assert!(err.traceback_bound(py).is_none());
});
Source

pub fn occurred(_: Python<'_>) -> bool

Gets whether an error is present in the Python interpreter’s global state.

Source

pub fn take(py: Python<'_>) -> Option<PyErr>

Takes the current error from the Python interpreter’s global state and clears the global state. If no error is set, returns None.

If the error is a PanicException (which would have originated from a panic in a pyo3 callback) then this function will resume the panic.

Use this function when it is not known if an error should be present. If the error is expected to have been set, for example from PyErr::occurred or by an error return value from a C FFI function, use PyErr::fetch.

Source

pub fn fetch(py: Python<'_>) -> PyErr

Equivalent to PyErr::take, but when no error is set:

  • Panics in debug mode.
  • Returns a SystemError in release mode.

This behavior is consistent with Python’s internal handling of what happens when a C return value indicates an error occurred but the global error state is empty. (A lack of exception should be treated as a bug in the code which returned an error code but did not set an exception.)

Use this function when the error is expected to have been set, for example from PyErr::occurred or by an error return value from a C FFI function.

Source

pub fn new_type_bound<'py>( py: Python<'py>, name: &str, doc: Option<&str>, base: Option<&Bound<'py, PyType>>, dict: Option<PyObject>, ) -> PyResult<Py<PyType>>

Creates a new exception type with the given name and docstring.

  • base can be an existing exception type to subclass, or a tuple of classes.
  • dict specifies an optional dictionary of class variables and methods.
  • doc will be the docstring seen by python users.
§Errors

This function returns an error if name is not of the form <module>.<ExceptionName>.

§Panics

This function will panic if name or doc cannot be converted to CStrings.

Source

pub fn display(&self, py: Python<'_>)

Prints a standard traceback to sys.stderr.

Source

pub fn print(&self, py: Python<'_>)

Calls sys.excepthook and then prints a standard traceback to sys.stderr.

Source

pub fn print_and_set_sys_last_vars(&self, py: Python<'_>)

Calls sys.excepthook and then prints a standard traceback to sys.stderr.

Additionally sets sys.last_{type,value,traceback,exc} attributes to this exception.

Source

pub fn matches<T>(&self, py: Python<'_>, exc: T) -> bool
where T: ToPyObject,

Returns true if the current exception matches the exception in exc.

If exc is a class object, this also returns true when self is an instance of a subclass. If exc is a tuple, all exceptions in the tuple (and recursively in subtuples) are searched for a match.

Source

pub fn is_instance_bound(&self, py: Python<'_>, ty: &Bound<'_, PyAny>) -> bool

Returns true if the current exception is instance of T.

Source

pub fn is_instance_of<T>(&self, py: Python<'_>) -> bool
where T: PyTypeInfo,

Returns true if the current exception is instance of T.

Source

pub fn restore(self, py: Python<'_>)

Writes the error back to the Python interpreter’s global state. This is the opposite of PyErr::fetch().

Source

pub fn write_unraisable_bound( self, py: Python<'_>, obj: Option<&Bound<'_, PyAny>>, )

Reports the error as unraisable.

This calls sys.unraisablehook() using the current exception and obj argument.

This method is useful to report errors in situations where there is no good mechanism to report back to the Python land. In Python this is used to indicate errors in background threads or destructors which are protected. In Rust code this is commonly useful when you are calling into a Python callback which might fail, but there is no obvious way to handle this error other than logging it.

Calling this method has the benefit that the error goes back into a standardized callback in Python which for instance allows unittests to ensure that no unraisable error actually happend by hooking sys.unraisablehook.

Example:

Python::with_gil(|py| {
    match failing_function() {
        Err(pyerr) => pyerr.write_unraisable_bound(py, None),
        Ok(..) => { /* do something here */ }
    }
    Ok(())
})
Source

pub fn warn_bound<'py>( py: Python<'py>, category: &Bound<'py, PyAny>, message: &str, stacklevel: i32, ) -> PyResult<()>

Issues a warning message.

May return an Err(PyErr) if warnings-as-errors is enabled.

Equivalent to warnings.warn() in Python.

The category should be one of the Warning classes available in pyo3::exceptions, or a subclass. The Python object can be retrieved using Python::get_type_bound().

Example:

Python::with_gil(|py| {
    let user_warning = py.get_type_bound::<pyo3::exceptions::PyUserWarning>();
    PyErr::warn_bound(py, &user_warning, "I am warning you", 0)?;
    Ok(())
})
Source

pub fn warn_explicit_bound<'py>( py: Python<'py>, category: &Bound<'py, PyAny>, message: &str, filename: &str, lineno: i32, module: Option<&str>, registry: Option<&Bound<'py, PyAny>>, ) -> PyResult<()>

Issues a warning message, with more control over the warning attributes.

May return a PyErr if warnings-as-errors is enabled.

Equivalent to warnings.warn_explicit() in Python.

The category should be one of the Warning classes available in pyo3::exceptions, or a subclass.

Source

pub fn clone_ref(&self, py: Python<'_>) -> PyErr

Clone the PyErr. This requires the GIL, which is why PyErr does not implement Clone.

§Examples
use pyo3::{exceptions::PyTypeError, PyErr, Python, prelude::PyAnyMethods};
Python::with_gil(|py| {
    let err: PyErr = PyTypeError::new_err(("some type error",));
    let err_clone = err.clone_ref(py);
    assert!(err.get_type_bound(py).is(&err_clone.get_type_bound(py)));
    assert!(err.value_bound(py).is(err_clone.value_bound(py)));
    match err.traceback_bound(py) {
        None => assert!(err_clone.traceback_bound(py).is_none()),
        Some(tb) => assert!(err_clone.traceback_bound(py).unwrap().is(&tb)),
    }
});
Source

pub fn cause(&self, py: Python<'_>) -> Option<PyErr>

Return the cause (either an exception instance, or None, set by raise ... from ...) associated with the exception, as accessible from Python through __cause__.

Source

pub fn set_cause(&self, py: Python<'_>, cause: Option<Self>)

Set the cause associated with the exception, pass None to clear it.
