New submission from David Rajaratnam <da...@gemarex.com.au>:
I'm trying to use `importlib.resources.files()`. However, I cannot work out how to properly use the `importlib.readers.MultiplexedPath()` object that is returned. As I expect and want, the returned object is referring to a directory, but I cannot seem to simply access the value of that path. For a normal `pathlib.Path` object you can get a OS specific path by simply converting to the string representation (eg., 'str(pathlib.Path('/somepath') == '/somepath'). However, for the MutiplexedPath object the __str__() value is the same as the __repr__() (e.g., "MultiplexedPath('/somepath')"). It seems that this is a bug since I would expect MultiplexedPath to behave the same as pathlib.Path in this regard. In the meantime is there a way to actually access this data without stripping the prefix and suffix of this string? ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 403621 nosy: daveraja priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: importlib.readers.MultiplexedPath type: behavior versions: Python 3.10 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45427> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
