http://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html#basic-resource-access Mostly I use: * resource_filename() * resource_string() (really, resource_bytes!) * resource_stream() (although I'd really like a more open()-like API) This might fall under a simpler PEP 365. Also, while I would love to have these available say in importlib, I also like to consider a backward compatible API where the stdlib provides the `pkg_resources` module name. That's not totally required though because you can play ImportError games until Python 3.7 (presumably) is in widespread -and only- use. Cheers, -Barry
