Handle pathlib Path used as default_config_files #293

Open

YoannQDQ wants to merge 1 commit into bw2:master from YoannQDQ:pathlib-default-config-files

YoannQDQ commented Apr 22, 2024

Having Path objects in the default_config_files make it impossible to display the help (-h) message

from pathlib import Path

import configargparse

p = configargparse.ArgumentParser(default_config_files=[Path("~/.my_settings.ini")])
p.add("geotiff")
p.add("--flag", help="Flag that can be set in the config file")

options = p.parse_args()

Running the above snippet with -h will trigger a TypeError: sequence item 0: expected str instance, PosixPath found.

This PR just casts the default_config_files to str in the help message.
