__init__​

__init__() -> Self

Initialize the object with a None value.

__init__(*, from_owned: PyObjectPtr) -> Self

Initialize this object from an owned reference-counted Python object pointer.

For example, this function should be used to construct a PythonObject from the pointer returned by "New reference"-type objects from the CPython API.

References:

Args:

  • ​from_owned (PyObjectPtr): An owned pointer to a Python object.

__init__(*, from_borrowed: PyObjectPtr) -> Self

Initialize this object from a borrowed reference-counted Python object pointer.

For example, this function should be used to construct a PythonObject from the pointer returned by "Borrowed reference"-type objects from the CPython API.

The newly allocated Python object will contain the provided Mojo T instance directly, without attempting conversion to an equivalent Python builtin type.

Only Mojo types that have a registered Python 'type' object can be stored as a Python object. Mojo types are registered using a PythonTypeBuilder.

Parameters:

  • ​T (Movable): The Mojo type of the value that the resulting Python object holds.

This method validates that this object actually contains an instance of T, and will raise an error if it does not.

Mojo values are stored as Python objects backed by the PyMojoObject[T] struct.

Parameters:

Args:

UnsafePointer: A pointer to the inner Mojo value.

unchecked_downcast_value_ptr[mut: Bool, origin: Origin[mut], //, T: ImplicitlyDestructible](ref [origin] self) -> UnsafePointer[T, origin]

Get a pointer to the expected Mojo value of type T.

This function assumes that this Python object was allocated as an instance of PyMojoObject[T] and that the Mojo value has been initialized.

Safety:

The user must be certain that this Python object type matches the bound Python type object for T.

Parameters:

  • ​mut (Bool): The mutability of self.
  • ​origin (Origin): The origin of self.
  • ​T (ImplicitlyDestructible): The type of the Mojo value stored in this object.

Returns:

UnsafePointer: A pointer to the inner Mojo value.
