Hi everyone,
I came across this type error while porting libs.
msg = _("Module run %s %s ended with error") % (module, code)
TypeError: %b requires a bytes-like object, or an object that
implements __bytes__, not 'NoneType'
This uses % format specifier which sometimes fails on Python 3 because
of strings and bytes differences.
I can resolve this by using fomat() like this:
msg = _(("Module run {} {} ended with error").format(module,code))
Do you think this is a good way to resolve this?
Is "format()" going to work well with translations using the
''gettext()'' used as _() as shown in the above line?
Thanks,
Sanjeet
Hi Sanjeet,
try like this:
msg = _("Bla bla {0} with {1}").format(zero, one)

Normally everyone would want to follow the "new" style of formatting
strings, which offers many more options. Why stick to the old style,
i.e. using the % notation?

Hi Nikos,
Yes, the .format() style should be followed in most cases. I could be
wrong but I guess the old style has been used to support older
versions of Python. But it seems we can use the 'format' style since
we are only keeping support for Python 2.7 (or 2.6 if possible).

yes, please use format(). And the old style (%) should be replaced by format().
