The type annotation for the `lock_file` `__init__` parameter is too narrow
exarkun opened this issue · comments
BaseFileLock.__init__ annotates lock_file as str | os.PathLike[Any]. However, this excludes bytes which are still the basic representation of paths on most POSIX systems. The implementation goes on to pass lock_file to os.fspath which both accepts and may return bytes values so there doesn't seem to be any reason to exclude bytes from the annotation.
