Python modules/patches that implement or tweak stdlib behavior for GraalPy; some execute at startup.
| Task | Location | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Overlay modules | modules/ |
Python modules provided/overridden by GraalPy. |
| Patches | patches/ |
Patch files applied to external packages on pip installation to fix compatibility issues. |
- If a file name matches a builtin module name, it can run in that module context during startup (see contributor docs).
- Keep changes aligned with corresponding Java builtins (
com.oracle.graal.python.builtins) where relevant.
- Don’t fork upstream stdlib behavior unnecessarily; prefer minimal overlays.
