From 74a3ee7a8b75bf6dc271c9a1a4b55d2ad9758420 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aaron Meurer Date: Mon, 6 Dec 2021 13:59:08 -0700 Subject: ENH: Add __array__ to the array_api Array object This is *NOT* part of the array API spec (so it should not be relied on for portable code). However, without this, np.asarray(np.array_api.Array) produces an object array instead of doing the conversion to a NumPy array as expected. This would work once np.asarray() implements dlpack support, but until then, it seems reasonable to make the conversion work. Note that the reverse, calling np.array_api.asarray(np.array), already works because np.array_api.asarray() is just a wrapper for np.asarray(). --- numpy/array_api/_array_object.py | 11 +++++++++++ 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+) (limited to 'numpy/array_api/_array_object.py') diff --git a/numpy/array_api/_array_object.py b/numpy/array_api/_array_object.py index ead061882..d322e6ca6 100644 --- a/numpy/array_api/_array_object.py +++ b/numpy/array_api/_array_object.py @@ -108,6 +108,17 @@ class Array: mid = np.array2string(self._array, separator=', ', prefix=prefix, suffix=suffix) return prefix + mid + suffix + # This function is not required by the spec, but we implement it here for + # convenience so that np.asarray(np.array_api.Array) will work. + def __array__(self, dtype=None): + """ + Warning: this method is NOT part of the array API spec.
