New submission from Ram Rachum: I have a a PurePath object like so:
path = PurePath('/home/my awesome user/file.txt') I'm SSHing into a server and I want to remove the file. So I have to do this: ssh_client.run(f'/bin/rm {shlex.quote(str(path))}') Which is really long and ugly. I suggested in issue28623 that shlex.quote could just take a Path argument, and in issue28811 that __str__ would use shlex.quote, and it was rejected too. My next suggestion: Implement PurePath.quote() method that calls shlex.quote() on the path. What do you think? ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 281858 nosy: cool-RR, pitrou priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Provide method PurePath.quote() that calls shlex.quote type: enhancement versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28817> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
