To convert a file to an integer file descriptor, use PyFile_FromFd()
PyObject *fobj; /* File object (already obtained somehow) */
int fd = PyObject_AsFileDescriptor(fobj);
if (fd < 0) {
return NULL;
}
This works for files, sockets, anything that produces a file descriptor.
Remember to flush your file on the Python side before you hand it to your
C extension, or your data will arrive scrambled, or you can lose some.
If you need to go the other way:
int fd; /* Existing file descriptor (already open) */
PyObject *fobj = PyFile_FromFd(fd, "filename","r",-1,NULL,NULL,NULL,1);
