Important work originally done by @emilyemorehouse two years ago and nearly ready to go in. This bug has affected many people and in some cases has been a dealbreaker to the adoption of the otherwise wonderful pathlib and PEP519. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33625931/copy-file-with-pathlib-in-python. This adds the outstanding test request from that PR @vstinner (https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/5393). Test fails without the change, passes with it, along with every other test in test_shutil. Some variants were experimented with to make the one line change and the most performant one was picked. # Added Test for PathLike directory destination, the current fail case ``` Lib/test/test_shutil.py::TestMove::test_move_file_pathlike FAILED [100%] ============================================================== FAILURES =============================================================== __________________________________________________ TestMove.test_move_file_pathlike ___________________________________________________ self = <test.test_shutil.TestMove testMethod=test_move_file_pathlike> def test_move_file_pathlike(self): # Move a file to another location on the same filesystem. src = pathlib.Path(self.src_file) > self._check_move_file(src, self.dst_dir, self.dst_file) Lib/test/test_shutil.py:1563: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Lib/test/test_shutil.py:1545: in _check_move_file shutil.move(src, dst) /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/shutil.py:562: in move real_dst = os.path.join(dst, _basename(src)) _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ path = PosixPath('/var/folders/r2/psq74t5x3nbfzlph8bh2pvdw0000gn/T/tmp9ie0wh9_/foo') def _basename(path): # A basename() variant which first strips the trailing slash, if present. # Thus we always get the last component of the path, even for directories. sep = os.path.sep + (os.path.altsep or '') > return os.path.basename(path.rstrip(sep)) E AttributeError: 'PosixPath' object has no attribute 'rstrip' /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/shutil.py:526: AttributeError ============================================== 1 failed, 102 deselected in 0.30 seconds =============================================== ``` After change: ``` ========================================================= test session starts ========================================================= platform darwin -- Python 3.7.4, pytest-5.0.1, py-1.8.0, pluggy-0.12.0 -- /Users/maxwellmckinnon/.venvs/TA3.7/bin/python3.7 cachedir: .pytest_cache rootdir: /Users/maxwellmckinnon/dev/cpython plugins: cov-2.7.1, mock-1.10.4 collected 103 items / 102 deselected / 1 selected Lib/test/test_shutil.py::TestMove::test_move_file_pathlike PASSED [100%] ============================================== 1 passed, 102 deselected in 0.06 seconds =============================================== ``` Running all the tests in test_shutil.py ``` ╰─ pytest Lib/test/test_shutil.py -v ========================================================= test session starts ========================================================= platform darwin -- Python 3.7.4, pytest-5.0.1, py-1.8.0, pluggy-0.12.0 -- /Users/maxwellmckinnon/.venvs/TA3.7/bin/python3.7 cachedir: .pytest_cache rootdir: /Users/maxwellmckinnon/dev/cpython plugins: cov-2.7.1, mock-1.10.4 collected 103 items Lib/test/test_shutil.py::TestShutil::test_chown PASSED [ 0%] Lib/test/test_shutil.py::TestShutil::test_copy PASSED [ 1%] ...

I'm not sure if the idea is for all these modules to strictly avoid circular dependencies. They are already using os.path which is just as much a citizen in 3.8 as pathlib right? e.g. `real_dst = os.path.join(dst, _basename(src))` becomes `real_dst = Path(dst) / Path(src).name` I've looked around and familiarized myself, and I now think importing pathlib here is fine. My only remaining concern is that of performance. Here's the performance difference for this step. ``` In [46]: %timeit real_dst = os.path.join("a/b/c", _basename('b/')) 2.71 µs ± 62.6 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100000 loops each) In [47]: %timeit real_dst = Path("a/b/c") / Path('b/').name 12.4 µs ± 65.3 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100000 loops each) ``` Is 10us significant or insignificant compared to the least expensive operation this function will do? I don't know. Let's find out. ``` In [55]: %timeit os.rename('/tmp/a/a.txt', '/tmp/a/b.txt'); os.rename('/tmp/a/b.txt', '/tmp/a/a.txt') 124 µs ± 2.18 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10000 loops each) ``` 62us to rename. 10us seems significant enough that we wouldn't want to favor the Path sugar suggestion. 16% speed decrease from adding the 10us. What do people think? I was hoping to get to use pathlib.Path here, but I suspect for this low level move, it should be as fast as possible, and 16% is not worth one line of sugary code to me. https://bugs.python.org/issue32689 Automerge-Triggered-By: @gvanrossum |
