Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• I get a runtime error with Click complaining about the encoding

  RuntimeError('Click will abort further execution because Python 3 \
  was configured to use ASCII as encoding for ...sk_SK.UTF-8, \
  sl_SI.UTF-8, sr_YU.UTF-8, sv_SE.UTF-8, tr_TR.UTF-8, \
  uk_UA.UTF-8, zh_CN.UTF-8, zh_HK.UTF-8, zh_TW.UTF-8')
  

  This can be solved by :

  export LC_ALL=en_US.utf-8
  export LANG=en_US.utf-8
  

• We use importlib-resources to read from local files. Sample usages:

  from importlib_resources import path
  
  with path(package, resource) as file_in:
      new_grid = np.load(file_in)
  

  And:

  from importlib_resources import read_binary
  
  load_data = read_binary(package, resource)
  self.set_full_state_msg(load_data)
