importlib.resources.abc.Traversable.joinpath docs incomplete

Open encukou opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

importlib.resources.abc.Traversable.joinpath should mention that it can take multiple descendants.

The versionchanged note should mention that some providers might still not support this.

@jaraco, this was officially added in 3.11, right?

It looks like the protocol was updated in importlib_resources 5.7 and Python 3.11, but it wasn't until later (importlib_resources 5.11 and Python 3.12) that MultiplexedPath added that support (so namespace packages wouldn't have support until Python 3.12). But yes, generally speaking, what you've described is correct.
