I'm using pytest's `tmp_path` fixture, which is a `pathlib.Path`, to get a temporary database path. I was getting a weird error involving writes, but I was doing reads. Turns out it's the internal database trying to insert a `Path` where it wants a string. My test looked like this: ```python @pytest.mark.asyncio async def test_render_feature_collection(tmp_path): database = tmp_path / "test.db" datasette = Datasette([database]) # this will break with a path await datasette.refresh_schemas() # build a url url = datasette.urls.table(database.stem, TABLE_NAME, format="geojson") response = await datasette.client.get(url) fc = response.json() assert 200 == response.status_code ``` I only ran into this while running tests, because passing in database paths from the CLI uses strings, but it's a weird error and probably something other people have run into. The fix is easy enough: Convert the path to a string and everything works. So this: ```python @pytest.mark.asyncio async def test_render_feature_collection(tmp_path): database = tmp_path / "test.db" datasette = Datasette([str(database)]) # this is fine now await datasette.refresh_schemas() ``` This could (probably, haven't tested) be fixed [here](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/03ec71193b9545536898a4bc7493274fec48bdd7/datasette/app.py#L357) by calling `str(db.path)` or by doing that conversion earlier. | 107914493 | issue | {"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1365/reactions", "total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} | completed |
