Function NewModule

pkg/filament/cpython/module.go:47–58

NewModule imports a module leaving the globals and locals arguments set to NULL and level set to 0. When the name argument contains a dot (when it specifies a submodule of a package), the fromlist argument is set to the list ['*'] so that the return value is the named module rather than the top-leve

(name string)

// the submodules specified in the package’s __all__ variable are loaded.) Return a new reference to the imported module,
// or NULL with an exception set on failure. A failing import of a module doesn't leave the module in sys.modules.
func NewModule(name string) (*Module, error) {
	n := C.CString(name)
	defer C.free(unsafe.Pointer(n))
	mod := C.PyImport_ImportModule(n)
	if mod == nil {
		return nil, fmt.Errorf("couldn't import %q module", name)
	}
	return &Module{
		PyObject: &PyObject{rawptr: mod},
		name:     name,
	}, nil
