- <p>An <a class="reference internal" href="../glossary.html#term-abstract-base-class"><span class="xref std std-term">abstract base class</span></a> to provide the ability to read
- <em>resources</em>.</p>
- <p>From the perspective of this ABC, a <em>resource</em> is a binary
- artifact that is shipped within a package. Typically this is
- something like a data file that lives next to the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">__init__.py</span></code>
- file of the package. The purpose of this class is to help abstract
- out the accessing of such data files so that it does not matter if
- the package and its data file(s) are stored in a e.g. zip file
- versus on the file system.</p>
- <p>For any of methods of this class, a <em>resource</em> argument is
- expected to be a <a class="reference internal" href="../glossary.html#term-path-like-object"><span class="xref std std-term">path-like object</span></a> which represents
- conceptually just a file name. This means that no subdirectory
- paths should be included in the <em>resource</em> argument. This is
- because the location of the package the reader is for, acts as the
- “directory”. Hence the metaphor for directories and file
- names is packages and resources, respectively. This is also why
- instances of this class are expected to directly correlate to
- a specific package (instead of potentially representing multiple
- packages or a module).</p>
- <p>Loaders that wish to support resource reading are expected to
- provide a method called <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">get_resource_reader(fullname)</span></code> which
- returns an object implementing this ABC’s interface. If the module
- specified by fullname is not a package, this method should return
- <a class="reference internal" href="constants.html#None" title="None"><code class="xref py py-const docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">None</span></code></a>. An object compatible with this ABC should only be
- returned when the specified module is a package.</p>
