@smontanaro Can you please take a look?

Modules/_csv.c

I think "set" might confuse naive readers. What was wrong with the previous spelling? Also, note that "delimiter" was quoted because it was explicitly referring to the "dellimiter" attribute.

Okay, I agree that the message doesn't need to be changed.

It was made consistent with error messages for other arguments.

smontanaro · 2021-10-06T02:45:24Z

@iritkatriel While the new test ("!=" vs ">") is technically more correct and might be worthwhile in 3.11, I don't think that change can be backported, since it might break existing code.

corona10 · 2021-10-07T07:47:31Z

@iritkatriel gentle ping :)

iritkatriel · 2021-10-08T16:03:48Z

Looks fine, would be nice to add a coauthored-by crediting the original patch author.

corona10 · 2021-10-09T07:30:12Z

@serhiy-storchaka
if we apply #28808, should we drop this PR?
This PR will make an error .

self._read_test(['a,\\b,c'], [['a', '\\b', 'c']], escapechar='')
# TypeError: "escapechar" must be a 1-character string

serhiy-storchaka · 2021-10-09T10:06:40Z

#28808 and this PR are almost unrelyted. I was going to merge #28808 after merging this PR if the purpose of this PR is just improving error messages.

serhiy-storchaka · 2021-10-09T10:15:04Z

Modules/_csv.c

-                PyErr_Format(PyExc_TypeError,
-                    "\"%s\" must be string, not %.200s", name,
-                    Py_TYPE(src)->tp_name);
+                if (strcmp(name, "delimiter") == 0) {


If we tweak this error message, we should also raise the same error if delimiter=None.

It may be simpler to introduce different function _set_char_or_none().

corona10 · 2021-10-09T13:31:49Z

@serhiy-storchaka
Thanks for the review.

It may be simpler to introduce different function _set_char_or_none()

I follow your code review, Please take a look.

PR is just improving error messages.

This PR will not allow zero-length string, is this should be allowed?

self._read_test(['a,\0b,c'], [['a', 'b', 'c']], escapechar='\0') -> allowed
self._read_test(['a,\b,c'], [['a', '\b', 'c']], escapechar='') -> not allowed.

Please let me know your intention, I will update the PR to follow your intention :)

serhiy-storchaka · 2021-10-09T13:47:40Z

This PR will not allow zero-length string, is this should be allowed?

This is undocumented behavior, and I believe it is not intentional. I think that the change for more correct error message could be backported to 3.9 and 3.10, but the change in handling empty strings should be only in 3.11.

Also there is a bug, error in PyUnicode_GetLength() is not handled. Its fix should be backported too.

So you can split this PR on 2 or 3 PRs (better error message, handle error in PyUnicode_GetLength(), disallow empty escapechar/quotechar) and merge and backport them separately. or merge the combined PR and remove some changes in backports.

Ah, and it would be nice to disallow empty lineterminator, and disallow conflicts (e.g. the same char for delimiter, escapechar or quotechar), but this is a different issue.

corona10 · 2021-10-09T13:53:37Z

Okay let's separate the PR into 3 PRs

part1 better error message
part2 handle error in PyUnicode_GetLength()
part3 disallow empty escapechar/quotechar

miss-islington · 2021-10-09T14:50:15Z

Please see bpo 20028. python/cpython#28705. This shows up in nightlies, but I have no way to test this. It should show up pretty soon in regular CI. Can someone with with the perms on the MacPython repo please trigger the nightlies manually to see if that fixes the builds? Thanks.
