Hint: if not defined pylibConfigIsolated, this module will call setlocale(LC_CTYPE, ""), a.k.a. changing locale to user's configure, just as CPython's initialization.

Procs

func exit(c: int) {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}: Source Edit
proc exit(s: PyStr) {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}: Source Edit
func exit(x: NoneType) {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}: Source Edit
func exit[T](obj: T): Warning: this does not raise SystemExit, which differs Python's
Source Edit
proc getdefaultencoding(): PyStr {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}: Return the current default encoding used by the Unicode implementation.

Always "utf-8" in Nim

proc getfilesystemencoding(): PyStr {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}: Source Edit

Converters

converter noneStdstream(n: NoneType): typeof(stdout) {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}: Source Edit

Templates

template executable(): PyStr: returns:
when nimscript, path of Nim;

when JavaScript:
on browser: empty string

on NodeJS/Deno: executable path of Node/Deno

otherwise, it's the path of current app/exe.

template getsizeof(x): int: Source Edit
template getsizeof(x; default: int): int: may be used when sizeof(x) is a compile-error e.g. func sizeof(x: O): int{.error.} for O Source Edit
template rounds(fi: typeof(float_info)): int: not available when nimscript Source Edit
