Installation
--------------

.. start installation

``flake8-encodings`` can be installed from PyPI or Anaconda.

To install with ``pip``:

.. code-block:: bash

	$ python -m pip install flake8-encodings

To install with ``conda``:

	* First add the required channels

	.. code-block:: bash

		$ conda config --add channels https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge
		$ conda config --add channels https://conda.anaconda.org/domdfcoding

	* Then install

	.. code-block:: bash

		$ conda install flake8-encodings

.. end installation


In version 0.5.1 and above the functionality for checking classes
(``configparser.ConfigParser`` and ``pathlib.Path`` for now)
requires the ``classes`` extra to be installed:

.. code-block:: bash

	$ python3 -m pip install flake8-encodings[classes]

The checks for classes are slower and CPU intensive,
so only enable them if you use the classes in question.



Motivation
-------------

Developers using macOS or Linux may forget that the default encoding
is not always UTF-8.

For example, ``long_description = open("README.md").read()`` in
``setup.py`` is a common mistake. Many Windows users cannot install
the package if there is at least one non-ASCII character (e.g. emoji)
in the ``README.md`` file which is encoded in UTF-8.

For example, 489 packages of the 4000 most downloaded packages from
PyPI used non-ASCII characters in README. And 82 packages of them
cannot be installed from source package when the locale encoding is
ASCII. [1]_ They used the default encoding to read README or TOML
file.

Even Python experts assume that default encoding is UTF-8.
It creates bugs that happen only on Windows. See [2]_, [3]_, [4]_,
and [5]_ for example.

`PEP 597 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0597>`_ proposed adding a new ``EncodingWarning`` to Python,
which can be used in conjunction with this tool to identify issues at runtime.


.. [1] "Packages can't be installed when encoding is not UTF-8"
       (https://github.com/methane/pep597-pypi-ascii)

.. [2] Packaging tutorial in packaging.python.org didn't specify
       encoding to read a ``README.md``
       (https://github.com/pypa/packaging.python.org/pull/682)

.. [3] ``json.tool`` had used locale encoding to read JSON files.
       (https://bugs.python.org/issue33684)

.. [4] site: Potential UnicodeDecodeError when handling pth file
       (https://bugs.python.org/issue33684)

.. [5] pypa/pip: "Installing packages fails if Python 3 installed
       into path with non-ASCII characters"
       (https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/9054)
