Protocol Buffers - Google's data interchange format =================================================== [](https://fusion.corp.google.com/projectanalysis/current/KOKORO/prod:protobuf%2Fgithub%2Fmaster%2Fubuntu%2Fpython%2Fcontinuous) [](https://fusion.corp.google.com/projectanalysis/current/KOKORO/prod:protobuf%2Fgithub%2Fmaster%2Fubuntu%2Fpython_compatibility%2Fcontinuous) [](https://fusion.corp.google.com/projectanalysis/current/KOKORO/prod:protobuf%2Fgithub%2Fmaster%2Fubuntu%2Fpython_cpp%2Fcontinuous) [](https://fusion.corp.google.com/projectanalysis/current/KOKORO/prod:protobuf%2Fgithub%2Fmaster%2Fmacos%2Fpython%2Fcontinuous) [](https://fusion.corp.google.com/projectanalysis/current/KOKORO/prod:protobuf%2Fgithub%2Fmaster%2Fmacos%2Fpython_cpp%2Fcontinuous) [](https://python-compatibility-tools.appspot.com/one_badge_target?package=protobuf) Copyright 2008 Google Inc. This directory contains the Python Protocol Buffers runtime library. Normally, this directory comes as part of the protobuf package, available from: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/ The complete package includes the C++ source code, which includes the Protocol Compiler (protoc). If you downloaded this package from PyPI or some other Python-specific source, you may have received only the Python part of the code. In this case, you will need to obtain the Protocol Compiler from some other source before you can use this package. Development Warning =================== The pure python performance is slow. For better performance please use python c++ implementation. Installation ============ 1) Make sure you have Python 2.7 or newer. If in doubt, run: $ python -V 2) If you do not have setuptools installed, note that it will be downloaded and installed automatically as soon as you run `setup.py`. If you would rather install it manually, you may do so by following the instructions on [this page](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/installing.html#setup-for-installing-packages). 3) Build the C++ code, or install a binary distribution of `protoc`. If you install a binary distribution, make sure that it is the same version as this package. If in doubt, run: $ protoc --version 4) Build and run the tests: $ python setup.py build $ python setup.py test To build, test, and use the C++ implementation, you must first compile `libprotobuf.so`: $ (cd .. && make) On OS X: If you are running a Homebrew-provided Python, you must make sure another version of protobuf is not already installed, as Homebrew's Python will search `/usr/local/lib` for `libprotobuf.so` before it searches `../src/.libs`. You can either unlink Homebrew's protobuf or install the `libprotobuf` you built earlier: $ brew unlink protobuf or $ (cd .. && make install) On other *nix: You must make `libprotobuf.so` dynamically available. You can either install libprotobuf you built earlier, or set `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`: $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../src/.libs or $ (cd .. && make install) To build the C++ implementation run: $ python setup.py build --cpp_implementation Then run the tests like so: $ python setup.py test --cpp_implementation If some tests fail, this library may not work correctly on your system. Continue at your own risk. Please note that there is a known problem with some versions of Python on Cygwin which causes the tests to fail after printing the error: `sem_init: Resource temporarily unavailable`. This appears to be a [bug either in Cygwin or in Python](http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-07/msg01378.html). We do not know if or when it might be fixed. We also do not know how likely it is that this bug will affect users in practice. 5) Install: $ python setup.py install or: $ (cd .. && make install) $ python setup.py install --cpp_implementation This step may require superuser privileges. NOTE: To use C++ implementation, you need to export an environment variable before running your program. See the "C++ Implementation" section below for more details. Usage ===== The complete documentation for Protocol Buffers is available via the web at: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/ C++ Implementation ================== The C++ implementation for Python messages is built as a Python extension to improve the overall protobuf Python performance. To use the C++ implementation, you need to install the C++ protobuf runtime library, please see instructions in the parent directory.
