For the project which mixing Rust code and Python code, how the namespace looks like?

[evan0greenup]

According to https://github.com/PyO3/maturin#readme ,

The directory layout of a PyO3 project is like this:

my-project
├── Cargo.toml
├── my_project
│   ├── __init__.py
│   └── bar.py
├── pyproject.toml
├── README.md
└── src
    └── lib.rs

or this

my-project
├── Cargo.toml
├── python
│   └── my_project
│       ├── __init__.py
│       └── bar.py
├── pyproject.toml
├── README.md
└── src
    └── lib.rs

No matter which one, after packaging and import the root module of this package. How its name space looks like (what members does it contain?)

Is it the Union of both python code and rust code?

Is there any way to manage the namespace?

Transferred to maturin as this is specific to project layout when using maturin.

When using mixed Python / Rust in this way the my_project/__init__.py will control exactly the namespace you want.

maturin will package your Rust module beside this one, e.g. if your Rust library is my_project then you can import from it in the__init__.py as if you had my_project/my_project.py.

(Actually because it is compiled code, the file will be my_project.soor similar depending on OS but it functions the same.)
