Backport of pathlib ABCs

Project description

Latest version released on PyPi Documentation

Base classes for pathlib.Path-ish objects. Requires Python 3.8+.

This package is a preview of pathlib functionality planned for a future release of Python; specifically, it provides two ABCs that can be used to implement path classes for non-local filesystems, such as archive files and storage servers:

PurePathBase

Abstract base class for paths that do not perform I/O.

PathBase

Abstract base class for paths that perform I/O.

These base classes are under active development. Once the base classes reach maturity, they will be made part of the Python standard library, and this package will continue to provide a backport for older Python releases.

Contributing

Changes to pathlib_abc.py and test_pathlib_abc.py must be made in the upstream CPython project, and undergo their usual CLA + code review process. Once a change lands in CPython, it can be back-ported here.

Other changes (such as CI improvements) can be made as pull requests to this project.
