no-basestringΒΆ
Do not use isinstance(s, basestring)
as basestring has been removed in
Python3. You can import string_types
, binary_type
, or text_type
from ansible.module_utils.six
and then use isinstance(s, string_types)
or isinstance(s, (binary_type, text_type))
instead.
If this is part of code to convert a string to a particular type,
ansible.module_utils._text
contains several functions that may be even
better for you: to_text
, to_bytes
, and to_native
.
