You don't need a "workaround", you need to fix the bug in your code: > Traceback (most recent call last): > , in parse_device_info > string_valid = not any(keyword in info_string for keyword in block_list) > File "/home/srinivasan/Downloads/bt_tests/qa/test_library/bt_tests.py", > line 52, in <genexpr> > string_valid = not any(keyword in info_string for keyword in block_list) > TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str' You get that error when you wrongly try to test for a string inside a bytes object: py> 'string' in b'bytes' Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str' You fix that by making sure both objects are strings, or both are bytes, which ever is better for your program: py> 'a' in 'abc' # string in string is okay True py> b'a' in b'abc' # bytes in bytes is okay True py> 'a' in b'abc' # string in bytes is NOT OKAY Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str' py> b'a' in 'abc' # bytes in string is NOT OKAY Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: 'in <string>' requires string as left operand, not bytes Don't mix strings and bytes. It won't work. -- Steve _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
