``fspath`` argument for Node constructors replaced with ``pathlib.Path``
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. deprecated:: 7.0
In order to support the transition from ``py.path.local`` to :mod:`pathlib`,
the ``fspath`` argument to :class:`~_pytest.nodes.Node` constructors like
:func:`pytest.Function.from_parent()` and :func:`pytest.Class.from_parent()`
is now deprecated.
Plugins which construct nodes should pass the ``path`` argument, of type
:class:`pathlib.Path`, instead of the ``fspath`` argument.
Plugins which implement custom items and collectors are encouraged to replace
``fspath`` parameters (``py.path.local``) with ``path`` parameters
(``pathlib.Path``), and drop any other usage of the ``py`` library if possible.
If possible, plugins with custom items should use :ref:`cooperative
constructors <uncooperative-constructors-deprecated>` to avoid hardcoding
arguments they only pass on to the superclass.
.. note::
The name of the :class:`~_pytest.nodes.Node` arguments and attributes (the
new attribute being ``path``) is **the opposite** of the situation for
hooks, :ref:`outlined below <legacy-path-hooks-deprecated>` (the old
argument being ``path``).
This is an unfortunate artifact due to historical reasons, which should be
resolved in future versions as we slowly get rid of the :pypi:`py`
dependency (see :issue:`9283` for a longer discussion).
Due to the ongoing migration of methods like :meth:`~pytest.Item.reportinfo`
which still is expected to return a ``py.path.local`` object, nodes still have
both ``fspath`` (``py.path.local``) and ``path`` (``pathlib.Path``) attributes,
no matter what argument was used in the constructor. We expect to deprecate the
``fspath`` attribute in a future release.
